Hi I just had this surgery a month an half ago i just want to know how you've been any good things ?

I have the same fracture in my left leg

This is actually wrong. There should be 3 holes proximal and 2 holes distal to the fracture plane on the 1/3 semitubular plate. Also, the Lauge Hansen classification for fibula fractures beginning below the level of the plafond falls under and supination external rotation (SER) mechanism, the fracture would have to be much further proximal to come under a pronation mechanism of injury.
