After an open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) procedure, the timeline for walking varies based on the specific injury and individual recovery. Generally, patients may begin walking with assistance within a few days to a week post-surgery, depending on the surgeon's recommendations and the stability of the fixation. Weight-bearing activities are typically introduced gradually, often starting with partial weight-bearing. Always follow your surgeon's guidance for the best outcomes.

No, gamma nailing is not considered open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF). Gamma nailing is a minimally invasive surgical technique used to stabilize fractures of long bones, such as the femur, by inserting a specially designed intramedullary nail to support the bone during healing. ORIF, on the other hand, involves open surgery to realign and stabilize fractured bones with the use of screws, plates, or other devices.
