I broke my leg six years ago, both bones in lower right leg. To my own misery, it never completely healed.; I still have a massive bruise around the break, total numbness in my foot, and an ankle that hurts constantly. Did over two years of therapy, to no avail. I sincerely hope your recovery goes better! I'm sure it's pretty rough not finding others to socialize with, so feel free to come here and "chat"! I hope you'll be able to get out and about soon!
