Minor Heel Fracture

2018-05-03 18:23:51
Hi there, I have a small (2mm) fracture in my calcaneum from an impact rock climbing. Since I suffered no damage to my tendons or ligaments, would it be safe to bicycle? It has been one week now since the accident. Could I start to weight bear on the foot of there is no pain? I am desperate to get back to work. Thanks.

It depends on the location of fracture, if it's in the joint, then you have to take rest for 4 weeks minimum Share xrays.
