Screws, bolts and metal plates facilitate the healing of the bones, but do not make the recuperating process any easier for the victim. The healing time of a broken pelvis is about 6 - 9 weeks if you are of good health, older people those who may have osteoprosis may take even longer to fully heal from a severe break. Young women tend to take less time healng from a broken pelvic bone than men do.
Depending on the configuration of the fracture, many are also treated with fixation of the native bone with either a sliding hip screw or a rod with a compression screw. These take a few months to heal the bone, but rehab can last 6 months to a year, depending on the patient and their activity level.
