On December 19, 2021, playing ball resulted in avulsion fracture of left ankle. On December 20, the film (including X-ray CT3D) was taken for plaster external fixation according to the doctor's requirements. During the plaster external fixation, the plaster was removed for bathing several times, but the left foot did not fall to the ground. After washing, continue the plaster external fixation! On January 17, 2021 (29 days of plaster external fixation), I went to the hospital for re examination. The doctor said that there was still shadow gap at the fracture, and the recovery time was not yet up. Let me continue plaster external fixation! Today, on January 25th, I had external fixation with plaster for 37 days. I removed the plaster and tried to stand without crutches. I found that there was pain at the fracture! Excuse me, doctor, should I continue to put on the plaster brake? How many more days do you need to brake? Is the callus at the fracture not fully stable? When can I walk slowly? Attached are the 3D pictures on December 20, 2021 and the rechecked X-ray pictures on January 17, 2022, as follows! thank you
Condition Analysis:
Jumping to the ground leads to avulsion fracture of the left ankle. The fracture dislocation is not obvious and does not need surgical treatment. It can be treated conservatively, that is, external fixation with plaster. Generally, it needs to be fixed for about a month and a half. You can get out of bed after the fracture is completely healed.
Condition Analysis:
For your situation, it is recommended to consider braking for three months, because there is an old saying that it takes 100 days to break muscles and bones, so it generally takes more than 100 days to walk. It is recommended that you follow the doctor's advice and continue to fix with plaster until the callus at the fracture is completely grown.
Condition Analysis:
Judging from your current inspection report, it is still recovering. You can continue to fix the brake. After recovery, there is no obvious pain. Avoid standing for a long time with appropriate activities. If you stop turning, you can move appropriately to avoid stress on the painful part. Try to rest during recovery.
Condition Analysis:
You are a fracture caused by trauma. In this case, orthopedics has strict regulations. How long does the plaster need to be fixed before it can be removed? It is mainly determined according to the length of the fracture line. Specifically, there should be an orthopedic doctor to give you specific guidance. Just listen to them. If necessary, it should be re fixed. You can't worry about this condition.
