Hi
If the fracture is two piece fracture , you should be able to walk with the help of walker, the next day itself, but if it is multi-piece fracture , it all depend upon how well fixation was done.
Anyway get your latest X-ray done & send me to drsssoni@gmail.com & I can then exactly tell you whether you can walk now or not
take care
