When the bone's healed, make sure she has good physiotherapy as well - poor rehab is shockingly common and can cause all sorts of problems down the line.

Hello!

She has to wear a boot for 8-12 weeks. If the orthopedician wants to go ahead with a below knee cast for 4-6 weeks then go ahead.

She has to avoid weight bearing and follow all instructions of her orthopedician for a speedy recovery.

Take care!
