Minor Heel Fracture
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
