Most heel fractures are caused by a fall from a height. Not only is the heel bone fractured after a fall from a height, but other soft tissues of the foot are also damaged. During the heel fracture recovery process, it takes time for the fracture to heal and for other soft tissue injuries to recover. Heel fracture healing generally takes 2-3 months to achieve clinical or anatomical healing. Regarding the time of weight-bearing walking, it is recommended to get out of bed early and weight-bearing late. Early on, you can do non-weight-bearing functional exercises with crutches, and you can also do exercise activities of thigh, calf and ankle joints in bed. The specific healing time should be confirmed by taking pictures, and the fracture should be completely healed before walking with weight. As for when walking is less painful or completely painless, it depends on the exercise situation. After a fracture, local soft tissue damage also requires a process of recovery and adaptation, which depends on the specific situation, and one cannot just assume that after the fracture heals, there will be no problem with walking.
