The removal of fracture external fixation braces usually takes 3-6 months. The fracture external fixation brace must meet the clinical criteria for the fracture before it can be removed. The main criteria are continuity of the fracture broken end with passage of the bone scab, no localized pain and swelling, good shape of the fracture site, and no special paradoxical activities. In addition, the time may vary depending on each individual’s recovery. In most cases, if the fracture recovery is good, there is sufficient bone scab formation, and there is no localized infection, it can take 3 to 6 months before the external fixation bracket can be removed. However, for some elderly people, there may be a certain degree of osteoporosis, the body recovery time is longer, and the removal of the external fixation bracket will be relatively longer. Before fracture external fixation brace, it is recommended to take X-rays to confirm whether the fracture healing at this moment has reached the standard of clinical healing, and then remove it under the guidance of the doctor, and not to deal with it blindly on your own, so as not to cause secondary injuries.
