Is my recovered ankle going to be this stiff permanently?

Home More advice Health

So I broke the two sides of my ankle and I got surgery two weeks ago. I can't put any weight on it but although I can still manage to walk on it without putting weight by walking with a limp and when I feel it or move it when I take my splint off, it's very stiff and I can hardly even move it, I don't even think I'll be able to even walk on it. Will my ankle be like this permantly or with 6 weeks wearing the splint & boot, will I be able to walk normal as I did before?
