A Jones fracture is a specific type of fracture that occurs at the base of the fifth metatarsal bone in the foot. It can be a difficult injury to treat, and the recovery process can be slow. In your case, your doctor advised a cast and non-weight bearing for five weeks, followed by one week of continued non-weight bearing. After that, you started walking with an elbow crutch. It's not uncommon for the foot to become swollen after a period of immobilization, especially when you begin walking again. However, experiencing pain at the site of the fracture could be a sign that the bone is not fully healed. It's important to note that healing can vary from person to person, and it's not uncommon for a Jones fracture to take longer than expected to heal. It's also possible that the fracture is healing, but the swelling is causing some discomfort. It's recommended that you schedule a follow-up appointment with your doctor to discuss your concerns and to see if a follow-up X-ray is needed. They may also recommend additional treatment, such as physical therapy or wearing a walking boot, to help with your recovery. In the meantime, it's important to continue to take care of your foot, including elevating it when possible, using ice to reduce swelling, and avoiding activities that cause pain.

Swelling after fracture is common. Some pain is acceptable, it does not mean its not healed. But you need to post xrays both at the time of injury and now also to comment.
