post surgery

i fractured my left tibia at the medial malleolus and received ORIF where two screws were inserted at the mortise joint.
I have been put in a short leg cast.
What exactly is the timeline for recovery, ie. when I am able to put pressure, walk, and run.
Will I be able to be as active on that foot as I was prior to the accident?

    I recommend you ask your surgeon these questions. There is no way I can tell without seeing you and your x-rays.
