Healing time of fracture of the lower end of the fibula

The healing time of the lower fibula fracture usually takes 3 months and you can walk normally after healing. The conventional healing time is about 3 months, but it also depends on the specific location of the fracture and the extent of the fracture radiograph review. Generally, after fixation, do not put the leg in the down position for a long time, because it will affect the blood circulation of the lower limb and affect the healing, and elevate the lower limb frequently, which is good for the healing of the fracture. Most fibula fractures are treated conservatively, rarely through surgery, unless the fracture is open or the misalignment is obvious. After the fracture, you can eat food containing nutrients, such as high-protein food, high-energy food, such as beef, mutton, fish, chicken, etc.
