Whether ankle fracture can walk or not needs to be decided according to the healing condition of the fracture. Generally speaking, after 50 days of treatment, when the bone scab starts to form, you can go down to the ground with the help of crutches and partially weight-bearing walking, but it is not recommended to walk for a long period of time or with full weight-bearing.
The treatment of ankle fracture should be determined according to the severity of the disease, the less serious injury can choose conservative treatment for external fixation with plaster, while the serious injury should choose surgical treatment for internal fixation with incision and reduction.
50 days after the treatment of ankle fracture, radiographs show that the bone scab is basically formed, you can support the crutches down to the ground partially weight-bearing, walking exercises, but should pay attention to the exercise should be gradual and orderly, and gradually increase the amount of activity, do not be too hasty.
Because the bone scab is not firm and the fracture end is not stable at this time, it is not recommended to walk for a long time or with full weight bearing, so as not to affect the healing of the fracture. If the radiographs show that the bone scab has not yet formed, you should not walk too soon and need to delay the time of walking.
Fifty days after the ankle fracture, it is recommended that the patient go to the hospital in time to review the fracture and decide whether he can walk or not according to the recovery of the fracture.
