Under normal circumstances, there should be callus growth in about one and a half months. At that time, you can move on the ground, but you must not completely carry weight. Although there is callus growth, the fracture is not very strong. You must move on the ground with crutches, reduce weight, and pay attention to protecting the fracture. However, it is not possible to judge only after time, because after all, there are many factors that affect fracture healing, such as the age of the patient, the physical quality of the patient, the degree of fracture injury at that time, and the degree of active treatment and protection in the later period, all of which will affect the process of fracture healing. Whether the patient can get off the ground for about one and a half months, it is not possible to judge only after time, and it needs to be decided according to the reexamination film. If X-ray examination shows callus growth, otherwise it is considered that it is necessary to continue to protect for a period of time. X-ray is the gold standard for deciding whether to go to the ground.
