Weight bearing two and a half months after a heel fracture may cause pain in areas such as the surface of the foot and the heel area.
If a patient has suffered a heel fracture, the fracture may not have fully recovered after two and a half months, and weight bearing may result in secondary injury to the fracture site, which in turn may cause pain to manifest in the heel area. In addition, the fracture fragments may cause damage to the surrounding tissues during friction, resulting in swelling and pain.
Patients recovering from a fracture should remain as sedentary as possible. Moderate functional exercises can also be performed to avoid muscle atrophy. Also pay attention to ensure a balanced diet to provide adequate nutrition for recovery.
If the patient has a fracture of the heel bone, he/she should go to the hospital for treatment in time, and during the recovery period, he/she should have regular follow-ups and follow the doctor’s recommendations for recovery.
