How Long Will It Take To Cure Tibia Injury?

Hi i broke my right lower tibia and fibula on the 19th of september last year playing soccer and was operated on having a metal rod inserted through the bone and 1 screw at the top nearer the knee. 10 months on my leg feels pretty strong, however i am receiving quite alot of discomfort whilst running, also to keep my foot firmly planted on the surface and twist my leg round i get a very strong pain but the pain feels more like it is coming from above where the break was. It is coming up to the new season for me and i am worried that this hasnt healed fully, the last x-ray i had was back in december and it looked well with the doctor telling me i would be back to full health by the end of may at the latest
