Recovery during the first year after femoral neck fracture is a complex and non-linear journey: a longitudinal qualitative study

Recovery after FNF extends beyond physical healing, encompassing emotional adjustment and social reintegration. The understanding of recovery as an evolving and individualized process highlights the need for follow-up and rehabilitation strategies that address not only functional outcomes, but also patients' confidence, motivation, and support in daily life.
