Signs of base of metatarsal fracture healing

The signs of healing of the base of the metatarsal fracture are mainly determined by going to the hospital for X-ray examination and observing whether the fracture is blurred and whether there is any scab formation, etc. It is difficult to determine whether the fracture has healed or not simply by the appearance of the fracture and the description of the patient’s own symptoms. Therefore, if you want to judge whether the fracture has healed or not, as well as the details of healing and whether there is any displacement, you need to go to the hospital in time for a review. Generally, the patient should go to the hospital every month during the first three months of the fracture to check whether the fracture line is blurred or not, and whether there is any scab formation around the broken end of the fracture to judge the healing of the fracture through dynamic observation.
