Just what I wanted ..

NOT!!!

Finally went to the foot doctor today..

**

After a month of hobbling around.

Diagnosis

Stress fractures in right foot..

REMEDY:

Cast for 2 week.

**

Once identified the stress fracture usually responds

readily to treatment. Treatment usually includes some t

ype of immobilization commonly with what we refer to

as a soft cast. This may be accompanied by a special shoe to fit

over the soft cast to help immobilize the foot. This must be

done in conjunction with a decreased activity level.

***

This is usually left in place for about two weeks and \

then a smaller bandage can be applied. After this initial

three week period of immobilization ( soft cast wrapping) and

surgical shoe,activity must be kept to a

minimum for a total of six weeks to allow

the area to heal. The above is a general description

of the treatment..
