Hello, post any type of fracture the first line of treatment is surgery or plaster depending on the type of injury to fix the joint or bone in proper biomechanics way so that it promotes healing of damaged bone or joint. The natural healing time is upto 1 yr. Surgery plays 50 percent role while other 50 percent role is played by physiotherapy to recover functional movements. Physiotherapy rehab is must for all type of post operative cases to improve quality of life through improving following parameters. 1. Muscle strength, flexibility. 2. Range of motion. 3.
