After 50 days of formal treatment for a patella fracture, the odds are that recovery has not been achieved.
Patella fracture is mostly due to comminuted fracture caused by direct violence, or transverse fracture caused by indirect violence. Generally speaking, patella fracture will seriously affect the function of the knee joint, resulting in the patient walking obstacles. Therefore, it is important to pay attention and go to the hospital for treatment to avoid complications such as traumatic arthritis.
Fracture to achieve clinical healing needs to go through 3~6 months of primitive bone scab formation period, at this time the formation of a solid bone scab, in order to achieve a certain weight-bearing capacity.
Therefore, 50 days after the fracture is still early, it is not recommended to increase the weight bearing on the fracture site (such as walking on the ground). However, in the early days after treatment (within 1 week), it is necessary to carry out rehabilitation exercises under the supervision of a doctor to avoid stiffness of the knee joint.
