A bunion fracture of the foot usually takes 4-6 weeks to recover, as follows: First, a simple bunion fracture: it usually takes 4-5 weeks to heal, and taking X-rays can confirm the complete disappearance of the fracture line. The swelling of the toe will gradually subside through rehabilitation and normal weight bearing will resume. Secondly, comminuted bunion fracture: it needs to be repositioned by manipulation, or internal fixation by incision. It takes 5-6 weeks to recover from the surgery, and x-rays are taken to confirm that the fracture line is completely gone and the patient is able to resume normal weight-bearing. Therefore, after a fracture of the bunion, the healing time should be determined by the specific type of fracture. Simple fractures have a relatively short healing time, while comminuted fractures have a longer healing time due to the instability of the fracture and the poor stability of the fracture end, but the patient’s rehabilitation is crucial to the recovery of the toe.
