How long it takes to walk normally after femur fracture surgery mainly depends on the fracture site, the severity of the fracture, the age and the surgical method, etc. It is not possible to generalize.
If a young person has a fracture of the femur, which is common in femoral neck or femoral stem fracture, he should cooperate with professional orthopedic surgeons to carry out surgical restoration and internal fixation as soon as possible, assisted by medication and rehabilitation exercises, and then he can go down to the ground with crutches for about 1 month after the operation, but he should not walk with heavy loads, so as to avoid affecting the healing of the fracture. It takes about 3 months after the operation to recover to a better state, and you can walk normally with weight bearing.
If the elderly femur fracture, common in the femoral neck fracture, should be as soon as possible with a professional doctor for arthroplasty surgery, generally the next day after the operation can be appropriate crutches down to the ground activities, but the time should not be too long. About one and a half months after surgery, you can gradually return to normal walking.
