A member asked:

I fractured my medial malleolus and had surgery to have two screws put in a week ago. i was discharged in a boot with the directions "weight bearing as tolerated." i'm an athlete and wondering when i can get back into a pool or on a bike ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

This is a question best answered by the surgeon who did the case, asked at one of the regular scheduled follow up visits. Do not work out until the surgeon has given you that clarification. Weight bearing as tolerated means you can limp around some if it doesn't hurt too bad.
