Is Tingling And Shooting Pain In Tibial Bone Normal While Recovering From Fractures?

i broke both my tib and fib 8.5 months ago. One spiral fracture in fib. 3 spiral fractures in tib I had 2 plates to repair fractures. They are still in. I have been weight bearing for last 3.5 months. Just got off cane. Still a bit wobbly and limping. I started back to work part time a week ago. I keep getting tingling up my leg. As well as sharp pain up tib when putting weight on it. Tingling and shooting pain is intermittent. Is that normal.
