Elevate
A simple way to speed up the healing of a femur fracture is elevation. This means you should keep your affected limb elevated, at least above the heart level. By doing this, you can help blood circulate more efficiently, thus allowing for better venous blood return. Simply put a pillow or similar objects under your affected part when you are lying down or sitting. The elevation is important to minimize swelling and inflammation in your femur fracture. [3]
