Tibia fracture surgery is usually about one month after surgery, after the swelling subsides, you can not need to be elevated. After tibia fracture surgery, it is generally recommended to elevate the affected limb, the purpose of elevation is to promote blood return, which can play a certain role in promoting the absorption of swelling. In about one month, the blood circulation of the limb is basically restored and the swelling gradually subsides, at which time elevation can be dispensed with. After tibial fracture surgery, while the limb is elevated, you can also carry out rehabilitation exercises, such as muscle contraction exercise, ankle pump exercise, etc. Through the action of muscle pump, it can also promote blood circulation and promote swelling. If the swelling and pain are severe, or if the swelling does not subside, it is recommended to consult a doctor in time to rule out the presence of lower limb thrombosis and other diseases.
