Dear Doctor, My daughter while playing she twisted her right leg and there small swelling , later treated her with cold pack and magic spray she felt better and swelling came down. However wanted to consult Dr. so took her to hospital and did x ray..they diagnosed as jones fracture. She is a dancer and now in 10th std. I want a second opinion, as she is not feeling any pain..attaching the x ray. Could you please check and confirm if it's really a fracture.

Yes, there is a fracture as you also mentioned. It is not displaced and nothing to worry. It will heal by 3 weeks and let her start all her activities after 1.5 months.
Next Steps
Follow up after 3 weeks for xray
Health Tips
Better to put in POP or Ankle binder, whichever is comfortable
