Stress Fracture of foot
Few days back, I fell from the stairs and got hurt in my ankle. Today went to doctor and got an MRI ankle done and Doc is saying there is a stress fracture in my ankle. He asked me not to walk or put weight on my leg for 3 weeks with some medications. I do have pain while walking. Is walking completely not allowed? What is this situation?
