It is completely normal to see a small gap on X-rays a few months after surgery; bone healing is a gradual process that can take three to six months. Signs of good progress include gradually decreasing pain, reduced swelling, and improved ability to bear weight or move. To support recovery, consider taking Calcium (1000?1200 mg daily) and Vitamin D3 (1000?2000 IU daily) to aid bone mineralization. For pain, acetaminophen is preferred, as some NSAIDs can delay healing. Always consult your orthopedic surgeon before starting new supplements to ensure they fit your specific recovery plan.
