The plate can be removed if the incision does not heal after heel fracture surgery. After the heel bone fracture, the heel bone area will collapse, usually through surgery to reset the fracture, and at the same time take bone grafting surgery to repair the collapsed area. In order to ensure the stability of the fracture site, a steel plate is applied for internal fixation. The heel fracture incision will gradually heal in about three months after surgery, and the plate can be removed after one year. If the incision does not heal after heel fracture surgery, the plate can be removed. Non-healing incision after heel fracture surgery is a complication of surgical treatment. It is recommended to cooperate with professional orthopedic surgeon for examination to find out the reasons for non-healing incision, such as necrosis of the fracture site, infection, cracking of the wound, etc., and take corresponding treatment measures in time to promote the healing and recovery of the incision.
