i broke my tibia and fibula in a snow blade accident fibula seems displaced?
hi. long bones like tibia and fibula takes about 3-6 months to heals appropriately and can be assessed with the help of x rays. as far as fibula is concerned it unites on its own in almost all cases without active fixation and only tibia is fixed being the main weight bearing bone. so do not worry as gradually the healing will progress. you can review with regular follow up x rays with an orthopedician to get checked for progress of healing. hope this information helps.
