A minor rib fracture may still be visible on a half-month radiograph. If a slight rib fracture occurs, even if the healing is relatively good, half a month’s radiographs may still be visible, but it will not be very obvious. This is because a slight fracture of the ribs is a mild fracture or incomplete fracture, the fracture site will not have obvious signs of fracture, not to mention displacement, stability is better, recovery is also fast. Usually the fracture is taken in about a month, it may not be visible. However, after a slight rib fracture, it is recommended to strictly follow the instructions of professional orthopedic surgeons to carry out local braking, cooperate with the doctor to carry out external rib fixation or rib plate fixation, limit the activities of the fracture site and carry out local protection, which will help the recovery of the fracture. During the recovery period, you must pay attention to rest, appropriate exercise, no strenuous exercise, no bending, lifting heavy objects, etc., in order to avoid re-fracture.
