I have an avulsion type fracture of the 5th metatarsal - base of foot. Fracture was on May 4 and after 4 weeks of rest / work from home, I would be returning to office from June 5. Just want to confirm that it is safe to do so. I have a desk job and I'll be dropped to office but the building is large, and I may need to walk a bit for essential reasons and for meetings. Is the fracture stable after 4 weeks and is there risk of displacement or delayed healing by walking after 4 weeks? X-rays attached.
