depending on the injury, but usually 6-12 wks, please ask you doctor that applied the cast this question.
There are several factors that come into play such as the medication you are on, condition of the bones, the type of injury and healing ability. In general, bone healing occurs in six weeks under ideal circumstances.
The average is 6 to 12 weeks
8-10 weeks
6-8 weeks
Up to 3 months is possible.
Hello. Normally the cast remains for 8-12 weeks
6 to 8 weeks
NORMALLY 3 WEEKS, BUT IT CAN VARY ACCORDING TO EACH PERSON.
The recommended length of time in a non weight bearing cast is 6 weeks. Although that depends on whether or not the fracture is displaced or not. If it is displaced, surgical intervention is necessary.
Depends on the kind of fracture. Could be as little as six weeks or as long as six months. Ask a doctor who treats fractures.
Depends on severity, did it require surgery. Could take 1 to 6 months.
