How soon can you sit up after pubic bone fracture surgery

It takes about 4-8 weeks to be able to sit up after pubic bone fracture surgery, and the time to sit up will vary depending on each person’s recovery. You must wait until the fracture has completely reached clinical healing before you can sit up, otherwise sitting up early will easily cause the internal fixation to loosen or even break, resulting in displacement of the fracture. About 4 weeks after the operation, the photos must be reviewed, if you see the fracture line is blurred or the bone scab is growing, and there is no obvious local pressure pain, you can slowly sit up. However, if the fracture line is very clear in the photo, you must wait for 2 weeks to review the photo again, and can sit up only if you can see the growth of bone scab. If it is a young person or a child, the time to sit up will be relatively short, 4-6 weeks. However, in the case of middle-aged or elderly people, due to osteoporosis or slow bone growth, the time to sit up may not be until about 6-8 weeks after surgery.
