After a fracture, whether it is treated conservatively by external fixation in a cast or surgically, the pain caused by the fracture can only be gradually reduced within half a month, but it cannot disappear completely so quickly, especially in the case of conservative treatment. In the case of surgical treatment, the pain may be much less, but if you move the adjacent joints, the pain of the entire fracture site will still be there, which is a normal phenomenon. As long as the fracture pain is not further aggravated or there is no significant redness or swelling of the incision after the surgery, it is within the normal range. As long as you continue to take care of the fracture site, follow the doctor’s instructions for routine treatment, and avoid premature activity, you will be fine. During this process, it is important to go to the hospital regularly to take pictures and review the location of the fracture and the healing of the fracture itself.
