Can I walk on the ground after 40 days of distal fibula fracture?

Whether the distal fibula fracture can walk on the ground after 40 days needs to be evaluated according to the severity of the fracture and the healing of the fracture, etc. For the patients who have recovered from the fracture, they can walk on the ground without weight-bearing, and for the patients who have recovered from the fracture, it is not recommended to walk on the ground for the patients who have recovered from the fracture more slowly. The distal fibula fracture is close to the ankle and has relatively poor blood circulation after fracture, and healing is slower. For patients with less severe fracture and better healing on X-ray, they can try to walk on the ground with crutches in about 40 days, but they should not bear any weight. For patients with heavy fracture, slower fracture healing or elderly patients, it is not recommended to walk on the ground at 40 days, but can do rehabilitation training in bed, and then consider walking on the ground and gradually increase the weight-bearing after the fracture has healed well in the follow-up examination. If you have any discomfort after distal fibula fracture, please consult the doctor in time and treat it positively so as not to miss the condition.
