What Is The Recovery Time For Cuboid Fracture?

Yes maybe. I fractured my cuboid and calcaneus. I had an external fixator on form5 weeks. It has been 7 months since my surgery. I keep on having major pain in my foot. Now my back hurts a lot. I have been diagnosed with lumbar radiculitis and nerve damage. My right upper arm is also hurting a lot . When am I going to feel better?

Orthopaedic Surgeon, Joint Replacement,  's  Response
I have studied your case and I think you have three issues.
1. Your foot will take some time for heal. It is because calcaneum and cuboid takes long time in healing. It can be few months.I would recommend you to take calcium and vitaminD3.
Lumbar spondylitis and cervical spondylitis causing you leg and shoulder pain. For this I would recommend you to take neck muscle physiotherapy and back muscle strengthening exercises.
I would also recommend you to take Pregabalin and Methylcobal.
