#151 12 Steps to healing and running with a metatarsal stress fracture
The metatarsal bones are the long bones in your foot that connect your ankle to your toes. They also help you balance when you stand and walk. A sudden blow or severe twist of your foot, or overuse, can cause a break, or acute (sudden) fracture, in one of the bones. More About Your Injury
What happens if I fracture my 5th metatarsal? A fracture at the base of the fifth metatarsal bone is often mistaken for an ankle sprain and therefore not rested or supported enough. This can lead to problems in healing and continuing pain. A full-thickness fracture which is displaced and not ‘put back’ into line can heal ‘out of shape ...

A fifth metatarsal fracture is a common injury where the bone connecting your ankle to your little toe breaks. These fractures occur from injury, overuse or high arches. Providers can treat your broken bone with a cast, boot or shoe — or with surgery.
The fifth metatarsal is the long bone that is located on the outside of the foot and connects to the small toe. The fifth metatarsal bone is more commonly fractured. There are two types of fractures that often occur in the fifth metatarsal, avulsion fracture and Jones fracture.

A Jones fracture is a common type of metatarsal fracture and is the most severe type of fracture that can occur in this bone. This fracture takes its name from the orthopedic surgeon, Sir Robert Jones, who first reported and treated the injury in 1902.
After surgery, the doctor will usually put the foot in a cast or boot to immobilize the foot. Recovery for both methods of treatment will include a period of non-weight bearing activity when absolutely no weight can be put on the foot.
The short answer is no: You don't need crutches with a walking boot. While you shouldn't generally put weight on a walking boot, other mobility aids can be used instead of crutches to prevent this from occurring. These include wheelchairs, canes, walkers, and others.
The first step of Jones fracture treatment is rest and to prevent movement in the foot. Apply ice to the break as well. Jones fracture surgery may be needed to align the bone and help with healing. These fractures will sometimes heal on their own, but may take months to heal without surgery.
The ICD code S923 is used to code Jones fracture. A Jones fracture is a fracture in the meta-diaphyseal junction of the fifth metatarsal of the foot. The proximal end of the metatarsal, where the Jones fracture occurs, is near the midportion of the foot, on the fifth ray (of which the 5th toe belongs). Those who sustain a Jones fracture have pain ...
