In late November I slip in a puddle of water and fractured my 5th metetarsal(Jones Break), I wore a cast and endured crutches for 10 weeks. I finally had the cast removed and now I am wearing an ortho aircast removeable boot. The podiatrist told me that these fractures typically take at least 27 weeks to heal. I am a healthy 25 y/o, female who led a very active lifestyle before this injury. Is there anything I can do on my own to help speed up the healing process. At home physical therapy, supplements, ANYTHING....Any help you could give would be greatly appreciated.
