Three months after the operation of ankle fracture, I still can't walk with crutches for one month. I feel very painful at the steel nail when I am fully loaded. I want to ask whether it is because the steel nail is painful or because the fracture doesn't grow well. I know that there is a kind of tibiofibular joint steel nail that must be removed to walk with full weight. Is this kind of steel nail?
Condition Analysis:
In this case, you can generally walk, but you should wait until it is good or similar. Your situation should not be good for a long time. It is recommended that you rest for a period of time, and then go and recheck to see if you can manage to walk. If you try your best, don't overwork. Diet is light.
Condition Analysis:
Hello, according to the situation you described, it is generally considered that if there is this steel nail, it is not recommended to walk with full weight, but I can't see whether it is completely long, because the two pictures you took in the back have this kind of reflection, and I can't see whether the fracture line is still clear.
Condition Analysis:
According to your detailed description, after the operation of internal and external ankle fractures, it is recommended to take out the lower tibiofibular screws, local hot compress, electric microwave treatment, soaking feet in warm water to improve microcirculation, no violent activities, step-by-step practice and regular re examination and photography.
Condition Analysis:
The fracture of the medial and lateral malleolus is treated by open reduction and internal fixation. Pain during local movement is related to incomplete fracture healing, soft tissue adhesion, contracture, friction of internal fixation and stimulation of soft tissue. According to the film, it was observed that there was no lower tibiofibular joint steel nail. Generally, the internal and external ankle fractures can gradually change from double crutches to single crutches three months after operation, and some weight-bearing activities can be exercised.
