Post fracture healing
I recently had a fracture in my right foot. The cast is off after 4 weeks but I am still unable to walk. Should I get physiotherapy or consult a doctor?
Winter is not making it easy. I have constant pain. Is it normal? Or should I wait and see 10 more days and see if I can walk. I am not sure what to do.
