A member asked:
Will i be able to walk normally again after i broke my pelvis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends on injury: Our ability to recover from pelvic fractures is good but the ability to walk "normally" varies depending on the severity of the injury and the treatment. Many patients will return to walking. Some may have limitations. Most patients have some degree of residual pain that may or may not affect the ability to walk. It would be best to discuss your expectations with your Orthopaedic surgeon.
