Generally speaking, children with spiral fracture of the lower tibia can be removed from the cast after 2 months of conservative treatment, but it needs to be judged according to the review X-ray.
The treatment of spiral fracture of lower tibia mainly focuses on restoring alignment and realignment and eliminating rotation and deformity.
Children’s casts can usually be removed in 4-6 weeks, but whether the cast can be removed depends not only on the time, but also on the X-ray of the fracture site. If there is already bone growth on radiographs and no rotational deformity, the cast can be removed after evaluation by the clinician.
Whether children wear a cast or not after a fracture, parents can feed more nutritious, light and easy-to-digest foods to help the fracture site recover, and avoid cold, spicy and irritating things. If there is any discomfort, please consult a doctor promptly.
