With a fifth metatarsal base fracture, the bone scab usually does not form for three weeks and usually takes 6 to 8 weeks. In general, the fracture can be divided into three phases: the hematoma mechanization phase is 2 weeks, the primitive bone scab growth phase is 6 to 8 weeks, and the bone scab remodeling and shaping phase is 12 to -18 weeks. At the base of the fifth metatarsal, the fracture healing time is shorter and faster due to the greater amount of cancellous bone, and healing is usually achieved in about 8 weeks. Fifth metatarsal base fracture, if there is no obvious dislocation, timely cast or support external fixation braking, avoid early weight-bearing activities of the affected limb, usually elevate the affected limb is conducive to swelling, usually 6~8 weeks, the fracture end will be stable, can take pictures to check the growth of bone scab at the fracture.
