Can Cocaine Use Strengthen Broken Bones And Speed Up Healing?

I recently fractured my fibula while ice skating with my girlfriend, directly above my ankle. My question is a bit of a strange one, but I recently read several articles explaining how cocaine use has been known and documented to streangthen broken bones and speed healing time. Where smoking deprives the blood of oxygen, and copious amounts of alcohol consumed can and will thin the blood causing delayed healing time, will cocaine use speed healing time or streangthen bones? The use of cocaine is associated with negative thoughts, the medical benefits of cocaine go unnoticed by many. Can levemnisole-free cocaine in fact provide positive benefits towards a fractured fibula? Whether its reducing swelling, providing better circulation towards a would?

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
Cocaine use does not cause a bone strengthening or hastens up the process of healing. Rather a healthy diet and avoiding the cocaine use can help.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
