As you know this is a very serious and complex fracture of the tibia. From your description, it sounds like you are rehabilitating very well. Due to the extensiveness of the fracture down the tibia, your rehabilitation and as your full range of motion may take a little longer. Continue to work with your orthopedic surgeon and physical therapist. So far, good work!
