So I broke my ankle Sunday morning and had surgery yesterday. They put a metal plate and screw in my ankle. Going to be out of commission for around 12-14 weeks (maybe more).

Does anyone have any advice for the situation I find myself in. Ie; tips for going to the bathroom, preparing food, showering, entertainment, ect.

Only thing really I'd suggest is going to a physiotherapist after everything has come off.

I believe it is quite common to put a plastic bag around the cast, look this up for more information (should be enough to find online). Use crutches and just use your senses. Keep it out of harm's way.

I received 4 injuries within this last year. 2 Inflammations and 2 fractures. Still recovering from this last fracture. I've just navigated as usual (but with crutches), but I haven't had a cast. Wish I could help more.

The plastic bag goes around the cast when you're showering. Sorry, I forgot to include that.

Don't scratch the dead skin off when you take it off. Let it come off on it's own, unless you want a bloody leg.

I've got crutches and now my grandparents brought me a walker. I wrapped my leg with bags and towels yesterday for a shower, I was supposed to only sponge bath but I didn't read the washing instruction my surgeon gave me cuz I'm dumb lol
