In general, internal fixation of fractures, correction of bone deformities, and fusion of joints are often required, and the recovery time after internal plate fixation varies depending on the specific condition. If the fracture involves a non-weight-bearing area, the recovery time is generally considered to be around eight weeks with the appropriate internal fixation. For internal fixation of weight-bearing plates, such as those in the lower extremities, recovery often takes up to 12 weeks. If joint fusion is involved, it often takes 8-12 weeks depending on the degree of joint fusion, so after the plate is applied, it mainly depends on the local bone growth and healing, and once the bone grows and heals, normal activities and daily functions can be gradually resumed.
