Suggest Exercises That May Aid In Healing Neck Fracture

Hi, I recently suffered from a Femoral Neck Fracture and have undergone surgery involving the introduction of cannulated screws into the neck. However, I am 18 years old and relatively active. I was wondering if you have any tips on how to aid the healing process or any exercises? Thanks

Hi welcome to HCm.

I have gone thru your query and can understand your concern .
But dear I suggest you not to be overactive , which can harm you in the long run .
Have patience ,Complete immobilization of the head and neck should be done as early as possible and before moving the patient. Immobilization should remain in place until movement of the head and neck is proven safe .

Any exercise can only be induced after your healing process is over After that you can do light exercises without jerks ,suitable to you injury , that too with your surgeon's advice .

Of course you can do pranayam - deep breathing , meditation for proper blood circulation and detoxification .
Take good nourishining diet containing lot of water ,all essential inutrients , vitamins and minerals , protien, fruits & veges dry fruits Aloe vera juice .
help fast recovery .
Take take Homeopathic Symphytum 6 or 30 / 6 hourly / a weak for speedy
union of fractured bones .
Avoid constipation , sleeplessness ,stress ,tea ,coffee , smoking ,alcohol
.
It is advised to see your doctor for further guidance .
