Patient's question:
Doctor, my mom's leg has been broken for five months now. My sister-in-law has four-month-old children. Can my mom carry the child every day now? The crutches are no longer needed, and it's been over 20 days. Walking short distances is normal, but her legs hurt when walking for a long time.Doctor's answer:
Five months after the fracture, it is generally possible to return to normal. If there are still symptoms while walking, it is not recommended to carry children. It is suggested that prolonged walking, in addition to leg pain symptoms, is not advisable for weight-bearing exercises. You can increase your activity, and it is fine to exercise moderately. The above advice is for the question "Can my mother, who has had a leg fracture for five months, carry her child every day?" It is hoped that this will be helpful to you. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery!
