Whether or not you can take a bath 8 weeks after compression fracture surgery needs to be decided by two aspects, one is the specific location of the fracture, and the other is the obvious bone scab growth. 1. Fracture location: If the fracture is part of the torso, such as spinal fracture, rib fracture, sternal fracture, pelvic fracture, hip fracture, etc., this situation is not recommended to take a bath, you can be helped by family members to wipe the body, you need to wait until the patient can stand or sit up to take a bath. If the fracture of the limbs, 8 weeks after the operation can take a bath, pay attention to protect the fracture place not to get wet, keep the fracture part of the skin clean, dry, so as not to cause local infection. 2. Obvious bone scab growth: some time after the operation, you need to go to the hospital for re-examination, if there is obvious bone scab growth found in the radiography, it means that the recovery is good, and the patient can take a bath. If there is no obvious scab growth in the radiograph examination, strict rehabilitation treatment is still needed, and the patient can’t take a bath too early, which will affect the healing of the fracture.
