How long does it take a foot fracture to heal after surgery?
Most fractures heal without any problems in 6 weeks, but it can take 3 to 6 months for your symptoms to settle completely. Avoid weight-bearing exercises for 6 to 8 weeks, and you may be able to return to sports again within 3 to 6 months. How quickly you recover depends on how severe your fracture is, how well you stick to the recovery plan, and your general health.
