My daughter broke her ankle 7 yrs ago, they did surgery on it at elmendorf hospital. To this day she still has hardware in her ankle. Her whole summer was shot in the a$$ she was in cast for the duration of the summer, then physical therapy. To this day her ankle will start bothering her, we are pretty sure it's the screws they put in her ankle. I hope you have a speedy recovery!
My kid was bothered by the screws through the plate. Had that removed a year after.
