Bimillahirahmanirahim , Today entry in my blog is regarding of one question i get from my patient ,it is about the time frame of the healing fracture on bone. The healing rate and ability to remodel on broken bones vary for each person and depending on the age, health, type of fracture, and bone involved. For example, children are able to heal and remodel their fractures much faster than adults.
Below here is the simple info regarding a time phase of bone healing.
While the average healing time fractures for each type of bone,
1. finger bone: 3 weeks (FINGER)
3. Distal radius: 4-6 weeks (UPPER FOREARM )
5.the humerus (arm bone above): 6 - 8 weeks (SHOULDER)
6. femoral neck: 12 weeks (HIPS)
7. femoral shaft: 12 weeks (HIPS)
8. the tibia and fibula (BONE OF LOWER LEG AND SHIN ): 10 weeks
9. Ankle Bone : 6 Weeks
10. Rib Fracture :6 weeks
The conclusion i can explain is not all types of fractures require surgery, to find out whether surgery is necessary or not, physical examination is required by the doctor and investigation in the form of a X-ray photo. The X-ray photo is important to determine whether the broken bone position is correct or not, with this result its help to give an idea to take appropriate steps in treating broken bones.
wallahuaklam.
