What is the total recovery time after an orif trimalleolar surgery?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Months: Recovery from surgeryt takes many months. You will be able to bear weight relatively soon after the surgery. However, it will take many months to regain full range of motion and normalize your walking pattern. For more information please visit www.Orthodoc.Aaos.Org/footankle.
