Pain at fracture site
I had a "mildly displaced fracture" last year on 5th july at the little toe of left foot. Dr had suggested Buddy strapping, which I had followed as prescribed.
However even after a year, there is swelling and pain at the site whenever I walk a bit more than usual..no other area has this pain. Attaching picture of the last xray taken on 29thJuly last year and the foot taken yesterday.
How long will it take to completely heal?
