You have a cast up to your thigh for a metatasal fracutre? This does not seem right, unless you fractured something else on the same leg higher up? I would get another opinion from an orthopedist or knee spesensoredt to determine if casting is required on the contralateral limb after a patellar fracture.
Good Luck

Worn daily for a few minutes to several hours, the night splint, over time has been clinically proven to reduce the pain and discomfort of plantar fasciitis and other overuse injuries of the lower leg.
