Recovery depends on the nature of your specific fracture. In general, it can take several weeks to several months for your fracture to heal. As your fracture heals, often, you can begin to resume more normal activity; however, it is essential to follow your doctor’s recommendations. Your surgeon will usually recommend therapy to help restore strength and range of motion, which are frequently diminished after injury.
At Town Center Orthopaedics, the surgeons and physical therapists work together to ensure each patient achieves a tailored treatment plan specific to their injury.
