    Question metatarsil jones fracture advice needed!

    I was in a boot for the first two weeks. Then I was put in a cast for 4 weeks, cast was removed 2 days ago,I have considerable swelling and have been advised to start slowly using my foot 10% body weight with crutches too slowly get back to walking. My concern however, is that when I put my legs together my foot is curled up on the inside part of my foot. My doctor insists that this is due to swelling cast etc. I hope this is the case, I am worried that something is out of alignment. Plan is to go back in 10 days and move into a walking brace shoe etc. Any thoughts, advice, would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

    Did you have any follow up x-rays after the initial fracture was diagnosed, to check the healing of the bone?
