How long does it take for a comminuted fracture of the little finger to heal?

It usually takes about 4 to 6 months for a comminuted fracture of the little toe of the foot to reach healing. Comminuted bunion fracture can be treated with surgery, such as internal fixation with Kirschner pins. After surgery, bed rest is required. Generally, bed rest is required for about 4 to 6 weeks, after which the patient can gradually get out of bed and move around. When getting out of bed, crutches should be used to reduce the pressure on the fracture site. Generally 6~8 weeks, you can remove the crutches, walk slowly for functional exercise, and gradually restore the function of the little toe. Generally speaking, the fracture can reach bony healing in 2~3 months and can be used for normal activities. Complete healing usually takes about 4 to 6 months. If the patient is older or if there is an accident during the healing process, such as a re-fracture or displacement of the fracture, the healing time will be longer. If you have a comminuted bunion fracture, it is recommended that you go to the hospital for a complete examination and receive proper treatment.
