A member asked:

I had a displaced bimalleolar fracture over a year ago that needed surgery to place 2 plates and i went on to develop crps. is it possible for a fracture like this to cause a very visible deformity of the ankle,without their being a full dislocation?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

There are mani things affecting healing of such fractures- bone alignment, degree of damage, any complications etc. pl ask surgeon for explanation. If not happy get another opinion. Wish you the best
