Can you walk on a broken foot? | Dr. Nick Campitelli

[@stephaniels5421]

I walked for 10 days on mine. Everyone told me that, "You can walk on it, it's not broke." WRONG.

[@giuliagiacintucci5890]

Same! The doctor at the er Told me it’s just a sprain cause x ray did not show any fracture! So I was trying to walk on it for a few days and THEN MRI showed avulsion fracture! I’m just so worried, I have to walk in the boot and it’s so difficult to see orthopedic surgeon as they don’t categorize my case as urgent 😭

@@giuliagiacintucci5890 I’m walking in a boot. It’s not hurting as badly, but it’s still swelled. I see the doctor in a couple days to make sure it’s healing like it’s supposed to. The fracture did not displace the bone, so hopefully it will be a smooth recovery. Thank you for asking!

[@stephaniels5421]

@@giuliagiacintucci5890 An avulsion fracture means displaced, right? Thats a little more complicated than mine. I hope you’re managing the pain well. It sucks to wear that darn boot. Although my broken foot is hurting less, my other foot & leg is tender & achy now because of overcompensating. One little thing goes wrong, it’s like a domino effect.

i injured my foot about a month ago, couldn’t walk for 3 days so i got an x-ray straight away and the doc said my foot was ‘fine’. eventually i could walk but it was really painful. i got an MRI scan and it turns out my heel is fractured. never get an x-ray from the doctor if u think it’s broken - they can’t read properly and also the x rays don’t pick up enough.

[@giuliagiacintucci5890]

I’m struggling with the same situation. I fell in a bus, missed two steps 😭😭 and when I went to the ER they did an X ray and the doctor said it’s just a sprain cause nothing is broken. I was trying to walk on this foot after 5 days but I was still limping, I went to a podiatrist she referred me to an MRI and I have anterior process of avulsion calcaneus fracture 😢 I’m in a CAM boot for 6 weeks and my question is: is using the boot and just resting the foot as much as possible going to heal my bone and in 6 weeks it’ll be healed properly?

They can heal quickly sometimes. It’s not uncommon. You may not see immediate changes in X-rays but if you don’t have pain or tenderness that’s a good indicator that it’s healing fine. I usually follow with X-rays though.

yes you absolutely can. When I went to Ranger school in 2002. I broke my two top bones in my foot during mountains face. And I still had one more phase to go which is approximately 12 days. Give or take. And at this point you're up for days at a time. You don't get to eat really he start seeing things that aren't there. Movement to daylight trench foot blah blah blah. And where our school our class started out to 62 and we graduated with 104. Slam for school we started with 65 we graduated with 11. Anyways broke my foot and I knew I did it because it was clicking I felt it and I would not take myboot off. I refused because I knew if I took it off it would swell and then that would be it I wouldn't be able to finish and I'm not going to start over again. So I finished it off. And then after school I took a shower and let my foot balloon up twice the size. And I went and ate a ton of food because while in the school I lost 30 lb + 62 days.

[@TheNunakun]

You sir are a trooper. That takes true grit and dedication, with a sprinkle of crudeness. I did something significantly less - pulling 15 hour night shifts twice in a row loading heavy cargo - and believe my 1st metatarsal finally gave out. I could barely walk during the middle of the 2nd day, but thought it was just a deep sprain. I'm pretty sure it's fractured as I woke up with it still as painful as ever. May I ask how you treated your foot? How is it now?

I dropped something on my foot, tried everything to help it but nothing worked so I went to urgent care, they did a xray, said it's not broken, maybe I should see a different doctor, almost two weeks it's still swollen and discolored, hurts.

Yup! I had a fractured big toe and two metatarsals. I got an ingrown nail. Now I'm an amputee. I was able to walk with pain. Open bones arent safe. Go to the dr. Dont be like me.

I broke 5 bones in my foot and ankle, had a dislocation and i walked on it, i was in agony but i was on holiday in Portugal and i knew that if i went to hospital to get treated it would cause a huge knock on effect so i chose to bear with it!

I have broken more or less every toe and every finger, i have also broken two toes and a finger just this year!

[@sergiomen3715]

How do you feel now can you walk?

[@ceskateinc3255]

Do all of these swell up and bruise??

[@footdoctor]

Typically if there is a fracture then you will see bruising but not ALL the time. Thanks!

[@maplenook]

@@footdoctorif there’s bruising does that mean it is broken?

[@nickbamber268]

Can you or should you?

[@richardb4787]

When i buy work books, i insist on steel toes. I work with cattle, and I'm fully aware of the liability of a broken foot.
