Introduction
Surgical management of fractures at Nova Foot & Ankle provides expert care for patients with broken bones in the foot or ankle. Our skilled surgeons use the latest techniques to ensure proper healing and restore full function.
What is Surgical Management of Fractures?
Surgical management of fractures involves realigning the broken bone and securing it with plates, screws, or pins to ensure proper healing. This procedure is often necessary for complex fractures that cannot be treated with casting alone.
Benefits of Surgical Management of Fractures
- Ensures proper bone healing
- Restores mobility and function
- Reduces pain and discomfort
- Prevents long-term complications
What to Expect
Surgical management of fractures is typically performed under general anesthesia. The procedure involves making an incision to access the broken bone, realigning it, and securing it with hardware to stabilize the bone during healing.
Recovery Process
Recovery from fracture surgery varies depending on the location and severity of the fracture. Patients may need to wear a cast or boot and avoid weight-bearing activities for several weeks. Physical therapy is often recommended to aid in recovery.
