How long can you walk after inside outside malleolus fracture operation

For patients who want to walk after surgery for internal and external ankle fractures, it must be six weeks later. Avoid walking too early, which will affect the recovery of fractures, and it will easily affect the function of ankle joints in the later stage. It will show repeated swelling and pain of ankle joints during activities, and it is easy to cause traumatic ankle arthritis, which will affect the activities of ankle flexion and extension. 6 weeks after the operation, callus has grown on the broken end of the fracture, the fracture site is relatively stable, and the soft tissue around the injury has been repaired. At this time, you can use crutches to carry light weight activities, and gradually strengthen ankle flexion and extension and leg muscle strength exercise to restore normal stress activities of the lower limbs. The above plan is for reference only. Please use specific drugs under the guidance of professional doctors.
