Can you still walk after ankle surgery?

I am a 25 year old male and I recently had ankle surgery. Can you still walk after ankle surgery?

Yes but with support for a week
Hard to answer this without knowing type of surgery. However, for ligament repair, fusion, replacement, and really any surgery I can think of, you can walk. The real question is when you can do this. Your surgeon is best to discuss this with. Give them a call and I am sure they will be happy to discuss this.
Good luck.
