Liz, Sorry to hear about your broken foot. I broke two metatarsel bones in my right foot last October, so almost a year ago. I had a cast and crutches for a few weeks, then a boot and crutches for a few more weeks. I never had surgery but probably should have. Like you I wanted to know when I could return to normal. I am 54 years old and for 20 years or so I have been a walker. I had walked two miles that morning before I fell later in the day and did the damage. Now almost a year later the metatarsals heads on that foot get so sore if I walk on them much at all. I have had to join a fitness club to get exercise because if I try to walk it gets painful. I hope your's will heal better than mine have. I am thinking now that maybe I should go to a podiartrist. I don't knwo what can be done now. Any advise from anyone?
