    Tibia and fibular fractures are one of the slower parts of the body fracture to heal, and the healing time is about three months if the fracture is in the middle and lower third of the tibia, and it may take longer if the crush is severe.

    You've had surgery, the fracture has been fixed with a steel plate, and the fracture end has some stability, but this stability can't support the body's weight, let alone walking. The practice of our hospital like you is: use a plaster cast to protect for about a month and a half, and the protection period is not to let the affected limb not move, you can take the initiative to raise the affected limb to make the calf muscles contract and refined.

    After the cast is removed, the functional refinement of ankle and knee range of motion is carried out. Subsequently, the column can be moved without weight-bearing on the affected limb, and after two to three months, the radiograph shows that the fracture has been initially healed, and incomplete weight-bearing begins. Do not lose crutches until the fracture line disappears.

    In short, the firmness of the tibial fracture plate is limited, and it cannot be weight-bearing prematurely, otherwise it is easy to lose reduction and internal fixation failure.

    Hello! It is recommended to get out of bed after the stitches are removed (about 10 to 14 days), but you can't move with weight, even if you have your own body weight, so you must use crutches! As for when to abandon double crutches and replace them with single crutches (i.e., only crutches on the injured side), it depends on the healing of the bones at the time of filming!

    Therefore, it is also very important to have a follow-up examination after discharge. Are you satisfied with this? Thank you!

    It only represents a personal opinion, don't spray if you don't like it, thank you.
