As some of you may know I broke my ankle in February this year and had to have a plate and pins(Dan, yes I know the pain so you have my sympathies) Anyway in may I managed to tear the ligaments in the very same ankle and they gave me a support splint for it which helped immensely.
Today the consultant had me Xrayed again and said he's not happy with how it's healing as the gap between the two bones is too big and the ligaments aren't knitting together properly so they gave me this ![[Image: 5c066a52-5ec6-9a38.jpg]](http://img.tapatalk.com/5c066a52-5ec6-9a38.jpg)

Yeah it's getting sorted but it costs £3 every time I go to the hospital for parking charges and the minimum stay is 2 hrs and I'm only ever there for like 45 mins. Physio starting again soon but I'm going to ask my GP to refer me locally as I'm not going to pay £3 every week plus fuel

That screw that looks like its floating around is actually a single screw on its own with no plate inserted in the back of the bone and screwed forwards and down at the same time the join the actual 2 pieces of bone back together

Nah, it does look odd though, I'm more concerned about the screw that goes through the plate and bone and sticks out the other side
