The fractured ankle has been painless for a month, is that good?

If the fracture has no pain for one month, you need to take an X-ray to check the healing of the fracture. If there is a continuous scab at the fracture site, it means that the fracture may have reached clinical healing at this time, but it is not fully recovered, and you need to follow the doctor’s instructions for exercise. Usually, after the fracture of the external ankle, the healing period is about three months, during this period, try not to go down to the ground too early to walk with weight, if you need to go down to the ground, you can use crutches to support. Because the fracture needs to be braked and rested for 6 to 8 weeks, during this period, the soft tissues around the ankle joint such as joint capsule and ligaments may be adhered, although the fracture is healed, the tension of these soft tissues will take some time to recover. Usually, after the fracture is healed, it is necessary to carry out the rehabilitation function exercise, within the tolerance limit, from gradually moving the joints, transitioning to walking training with the help of crutches, and then to normal weight-bearing walking and so on, to achieve the ultimate goal of healing. After the fracture, you should go to the hospital for regular checkups and do the functional exercises as prescribed by the doctor, and do not blindly do the activities on your own, so as to avoid adverse consequences.
