Fractured my ankle -- should I be worried about normal healing? - TuDiabetes

Hello All, Forgivethe halfJewishpart of meworrying in advance of an imagined catastrophe. I fractured my ankle 5 weeks ago. It's a simple fracture, no surgery needed thank the powers that be. My concern is that it still hurts to walk on it, not that I'm supposed to be doing that but who can help testing the waters a little? It's supposed to heal in 6 weeksso I'm wondering if being a diabetic will complicate or prolong that. Has anybody had experience with that? Thanks! Cynthia
