I met with an accident on 16/5/2018 and because of that, I was not able to walk with my right leg so I went to the doctor who after examination the x-ray confirmed that I have a fracture in right leg below the knee and doctor applied plaster on my leg... Then after about a month on 15/6/2018, I again went for a checkup and doctor again took the x-ray and told me to come again after a month and keep the plaster as it is.
I want to know how bad is my fracture, and how much more time will it take to remove the plaster

There is a minor displacement in position of your bone from earlier, which is usually seen when the leg is not rested properly and is having pressure applied upon it. Kindly visit an orthopedician so as to get another opinion on the choice of treatment. Kindly don't put pressure on your leg even while on the plaster and if your plaster is broken or loose kindly inform your treating doctor so that it can be reapplied. Kindly keep your leg raised and don't apply pressure on the leg.
hello , i have seen both x rays , it shows that frature is not healed till 17/06/18 . you need to take some ayurvedic medicines so that your fracture will heal faster .probably they will take x ray after 1 month from last x ray .
