Can I Walk Around After The Removal Of Cast Due To Jones Fracture?
I had a jones fracture 4 weeks ago but the x rays shows no improvement. The doctor has taken off my cast nd asked me to walk around as pain allows. Though it doesnt hurt much the doctor has asked me to wear a crepe bandage. Is it okay? Can i walk around? I hope it will not cause further damage.
