Healing time of tibial plateau collapse

Tibial plateau collapse usually requires surgical treatment because it involves the joint surface of the knee joint and collapse can easily cause unevenness of the joint surface, which can lead to long-term osteoarthritis of the knee joint. Therefore, the majority of patients with tibial plateau collapse generally require surgical treatment, and the healing time for these patients is usually about 3 months after surgery to achieve clinical healing. To achieve bony healing, it usually takes about 1 year. After clinical healing, the patient can perform daily activities, but cannot participate in strenuous activities or heavy physical labor. After one year, when the tibial plateau collapse has reached bony healing, the patient can perform strenuous activities or heavy physical labor because the initial strength of the fracture has been restored, which means that the patient can resume normal work.
