How long does skull base fracture need to recover?

Skull base fractures usually take weeks or months to recover. There

are different types and severities of skull base fractures. Simple linear fractures may recover relatively quickly, while severe displacement or other injuries may take longer to recover. Mild fractures may improve significantly within weeks with appropriate rest and treatment, but severe fractures may take months to heal and recover.

However, everyone's physical condition and recovery ability are different. Factors such as age, health status, and nutritional status will affect the recovery process. Young, healthy patients usually recover faster, while elderly patients or patients with underlying diseases may recover more slowly. In

addition, during recovery, patients should follow the doctor's advice to check the fracture healing and other abnormalities. At the same time, some rehabilitation training, such as appropriate activities, swallowing training, etc., may be needed to promote functional recovery. The recovery process needs to be gradual, not rushed.
