Question) Is physical therapy effective after 6 weeks of casting due to a toe fracture?

My younger sibling had a toe fracture and was in a cast for six weeks after surgery.

And recently, I took off my cast, but it seems that walking is not easy.

The hospital told him to walk without crutches immediately, but it seems my younger sibling is having difficulty walking.

It has been almost a month, but I still feel uncomfortable walking.

At the hospital, they said physical therapy is not really necessary and to just do walking exercises. I'm curious if physical therapy is truly ineffective.

It's been over a month since I've been limping, and I want to walk properly and a bit faster by receiving physical therapy.

    저는 엄지발가락 금이 가서 한달 정도 깁스했었는데요. 정형외과에서 물리치료 받으러 오라고 하시더라구요.
    물리치료 받아서 더 좋아졌는지는 모르지만 도움이 되긴 했어요.
    수술까지 하시고 아직 불편함을 느끼신다면 병원에 가서 다시 진료받아보시는게 좋을거 같아요.
