How Can A Painful Leg Fracture Be Treated?
I had a fracture in my left foot, meanwhile the right foot was compensating my weight while I was in a boot cast. Now my fractured has healed but am experiencing lots of pain where I can barley stand and walk on my right foot. Been going to therapy for a month, they have been working my ligaments back and forth it feels fine for a good twenty minutes after I leave but then all the pain comes back sometime in both feet, mostly in the right foot. In the morning I cannot stand or walk on both of my feet until after a couple of hours.

Hi,
As per my surgical experience, here I would like to recommend the MRI of the fractured leg to rule out residual ligament injury as the right foot problem is secondary to left one.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
