The recovery time for heel fracture is about half a year. Most heel fractures are treated with cast immobilization, and the recovery is related to many factors, so the exact time to get down on the ground varies from person to person.3 Generally speaking, you can get down on crutches 6 weeks after the operation, and you can have normal activities after 3 months. Heel fractures initially require immobilization in a cast. Fixed for about six weeks, during the fixation period, the lower limbs should be elevated, which is conducive to the return of blood circulation, can significantly reduce the swelling of the limb. After the swelling of the limb subsides, the plaster will loosen, which is not conducive to the immobilization of the fracture, and the plaster should be replaced after the swelling subsides. After six weeks, if the X-ray shows that the fracture site has a continuous bone crust, then the cast can be removed for early functional exercise. At this time, you can gradually bear weight with the support of crutches, but you can’t abandon the crutches to fully bear weight, you have to wait until three months after the fracture, the fracture has completely healed, and then you can abandon the crutches to fully bear weight. It should be noted that the recovery time is also related to the general health condition, the presence of chronic diseases, the age, the way of surgery, the degree of injury, the type of fracture, the local blood circulation and other factors. It is recommended to consult the surgeon and follow the doctor’s instructions for recovery.
