Re: Could this be a stress fracture?

I finally went and got it xrayed.....the xray say report said I have a "chronic non-healing fracture of the left foot." the nurse just read me part of the report....I am being referred to an orthopedic and also to have an MRI done.

Not sure just where my foot is fractured as she didn't tell me. My lower ankle, the outer side and across the top middle area of foot have alot of pain still. My foot still swells up and I have bad electrical shocking pain in it. Walking aggravates it. I also have numbness and tingling in my little toe to the middle toe area radiating down from the middle top of my foot.

What do you think they can do for my foot since its been almost 3 months since I hurt my foot? I am a diabetic, type 2...how will this effect it healing.

I go on Wednesday to the ortho. Will let ya know what I find out then.

The proprietary gel also provides extra protective padding to help comfort the pain caused by metatarsal soreness. May be used for relieving the burning sensation under the metatarsal heads, calluses and tarsal fat pads.
