About This Trial
The investigators will compare two types of rehabilitation in patients who undergo a surgery for treatment of malleolar fractures: immediate complete weight-bearing and delayed weight-bearing. The investigators want to evaluate if the immediate complete weight-bearing can improve and hasten the functional outcome of the ankle without increasing the risk of complications.
