Four years ago I fell from a ladder and shattered my Talus bone into about eighteen recognizable pieces. Recovery time for the normal Talus fracture ranges from eight to twelve weeks. However, with a severe fracture like mine was comes AVN. Avascular Neucrosis. Excuse my spelling. AVN occurs when the Talus' blood supply has been so traumatized that it removes itself for a time, causing a dead bone. Usually the blood supply will replace itself and grow back into the bone. The time span for recovering from AVN is actually the most extensive part of recovering from a Talus fracture. Regrowth of the vascular supply ranges from six months to eighteen months depending on the case. There are machines available which speed the vascular systems regrowth. Exogen is the unit that I was able to get. January 21, 2004 was the date I broke my Talus, and I took my first steps on a uncasted foot on August 20, 2004. Many doctors will say that a Talus fracture is one of the most devastating breaks to the leg or ankle. Its no fun and will continue to hurt for life.

∙ 12y agoEvery person is different hence different healing times. I broke both tibia and fibula whilst playing football after 2 and a half months i am able to walk unaided. I have been going physio for the past 4 weeks. I had no cast which i thought has helped my recovery time.

∙ 11y agoA broken tibia would likely need surgery as the main course of treatment. There are different degrees of fracture of course and without being a specialist in orthopedics, that is the best answer I can come up with.

∙ 15y agoThat depends greatly on the type and severity of the fracture. Ask your doctor.

What is the difference in a fractured bone and a broken bone?
A cracked rib is only partially broken; the rib is still mostly intact and able to do its job, and doesn't need (or have) any special treatment except not doing what cracked it in the first place. A broken rib is more dangerous, as there are two loose ends floating around that may pierce internal organs and do a lot more damage to you. It requires medical attention to ensure this does not happen, but there is not much more that can be done than keep an eye on it.
