Introduction
骨折后是否只能卧床取决于多种因素，如果骨折非常严重，甚至骨折的位置不适合移动，则也许只能卧床；但如果骨折十分轻微，骨折的位置对后期活动也没有太大影响，则不是只能卧床，可以适当活动。在骨折恢复期间，Patient要注意休息，避免进行剧烈活动。
Whether bed rest is required after a fracture depends on multiple factors. If the fracture is very severe or located in an area where movement could be harmful, bed rest may be necessary. However, if the fracture is mild and its location does not significantly affect later mobility, strict bed rest may not be required, and some degree of activity may be allowed. The details are as follows:
When a fracture is very severe or occurs in a particularly sensitive location requiring surgical repair, doctors may recommend that the patient remain strictly confined to bed for a period of time to stabilize the fracture and promote healing. Bed rest helps avoid additional stress or movement at the fracture site, thus preventing further injury or displacement of the bone alignment.
For patients with mild fractures in non-critical locations, appropriate physical activity is usually permitted when using casts, braces, or other supportive devices. This helps prevent muscle atrophy and maintain joint flexibility.
During fracture recovery, patients should ensure adequate rest and avoid strenuous activities. It is also important to maintain a balanced diet and sufficient nutritional intake to support bone healing.
