Fracture Healing Time

Q: Hi, I am Helen. A week ago, I fell down on the ground and my left leg (tibial bone) got fractured. Now I am in a full cast above knee. I want to know how much time it takes to heal. Please advice.

It takes around 3 to 4 months for such fractures to heal. The exact time would depend upon the extent of bone  breakage. 

Take care of yourself. Your physiotherapist would recommend some exercises. Do them regularly. 

Take Care,
