Keep in mind that your muscles under the cast are going to be very weak
from not being used. It is going to take much more than three days to
get back up to speed. Take things really easy for a couple weeks. You
don't want to start tearing up muscles and ligaments.

Be patient and don't hurt yourself further. Exercise those muscles
carefully.

Something else to look forward to is the flaking dead skin. Be prepared
to shed a lot. :p

Let us know when you get the cast off.

I have an air cast, you can ride with one on, but its hard to put shin
guards over them. I recommend not riding until you dont need the air
brace, cause one slight twist or bad landing will not be good at all.

Do you have an academy sports and outdoors store near you dorfman?

I wore a airsplint for my last ankle injury, it was expensive at the
pharmacy. Academy carries them for about 5 dollars, same product.

Where on the bone did you fracture your fibula? Was it the result of
repeated ankle injuries?

I have hurt my anle several times and can reccomend the air splints, as
they do a good job of limiting ankle movement side to side, yet still
allow you to move your foot up and down.

My best pointer is to pick up some boxing handwraps, and wrap one
around the airsplint after you put it on, it adds a lot to what you can
do without further injury. Good luck on the rehab.
