Ask surgeon: This should have been all spelled out for you before the procedure. There are also different procedures that take different amounts of time to heal.

Surgery: This not only should have been explained before the surgery , but you should have asked that question. It cannot be answered here as we don't know what was done , how involved, pins , screws , etc.

It depends...: Usually 4-8 weeks but it depends on the type of procedure performed and on the individual that it was performed on. Each person has a different healing potential depending on age and overall health.

Depends: on the procedure. You can heal in as little as 4 weeks or as long as 12 weeks. It could be longer if you have complications. Most of our patients do very well and the average healing time is around 6 weeks.
