I fell on my (uncasted) broken leg...advice pls?
I'm a little freaked out, I was at the movies tonight and carefully going down three stairs. My crutches got caught on something and I instinctively put my foot out to prevent a fall. Unfortunately the foot was my bad one.
The injured leg is now just over 5 weeks post op. I have internal fixation on my tibia, fibula was left to heal on it's own.
Should I consider getting an xray to make sure everything is OK

You're probably fine. I think everyone who has ever broken a leg has done that at least once. My son had a broken femur with an IM nail, and did that a few times. The Dr said no worries, as the rod is holding the bone in place.

If the pain is not worse, it may be okay. But it is best to call your surgeon and see what they say.
