I am 52 yrs old.....I had an accident on 3 april 2015 on which my tibia and fibula is fractured.... doc inserted a intramedullary rod on next day....but gap of 1- 2 mm remains.....Will it recover without surgery and how much time taken to become heal.... I am very worried...plzz give me some kind suggestion....
Dear sir1-2 mm gap will get filled up on its own, tibia fractures do take a bit of extra time to recover and consolidate being one of the major weight-bearing bone of the body. Please do nor worry it mostly heals very well and the joint is strong. Please do take calcium supplements and follow the instruction of your doctor and physio diligently
