A rib fracture can be recovered in about 2-3 months, depending on the individual’s physical condition and the severity of the fracture. If the rib fracture is mild and no serious dislocation has occurred, the recovery time is relatively short. A rib fracture that is severely misaligned may require surgical treatment and recovery time is slower. Usually, adolescents have a shorter recovery time than older adults. Your own body type is also a big factor. If the patient is scarred, the recovery time will be longer and the scar on the surface of the skin will take a very long time to recover and the healing ability will be slower. Or after the fracture, pay attention to rest, try to rest in bed, do not exercise, and when lying flat for too long, you can choose the lateral position, and try to choose the healthy side. If both sides of the ribs are damaged, you can choose the 1/4 side position, but the side position should be less time.
