Recovery time for humeral fractures is usually 8-12 weeks, as described below. Whether the humerus fracture is externally fixed by manipulation or internally fixed by incision and reduction, functional exercises are usually carried out at an early stage after the operation. Elevate the affected limb and practice finger flexion and extension activities actively after the reset surgery. 2-3 weeks later, you can start to actively perform wrist and elbow flexion and extension activities, as well as shoulder abduction and adduction activities. However, the amount of activity should be strictly controlled, and gradually increase the amount and frequency of activity. 6-8 weeks later, the amount of activity should be increased, and do shoulder joint rotation activities. In the process of exercise, it is necessary to check the alignment of the humeral fracture and the healing condition at any time. There will be obvious bone scab passing through the broken end of the fracture in about six weeks, and the external fixation should be removed after the fracture is completely healed in 8-12 weeks, and the internal fixation can be taken out after half a year. According to the above process, the recovery time of humeral fracture is usually 8-12 weeks.
