 [ Symptoms ] i broke my tibia bone doctors are saying different things [ Disease ] hi any bone in our body naturally needs approx 40 days to unite after a fracture this is a minimum number of days required especially in a weight bearing bone like tibia it may take even longer so i suggest you should wait atleast 40 days after the injury happened get an xray done on that day and only if its united then you can start bearing weight on that limb till then you should be on strict non weight bearing can use crutches but bear weight only on normal unaffected limb thanks
