I would like to know what are the recovery times in general, although we can specify it for a 4 cm lengthening of the tibia, that is:
1. from the operation to the end of the lengthening
2. from the end of the lengthening until you can walk smoothly at home
3. from the above until you can walk several kilometers
4. and finally until you can run.
Thank you

thanks for your answer,
but if you could specify one thing for me: you mean 2 months for each centimeter, but including the lengthening time, or counting from when the lengthening has finished:

 For example, if I want to lengthen the tibia by 4 cm, and it takes 2 months to lengthen, then would it be (2 x 4) another 8 months more for bone regeneration? altogether 10 months, is that so?
