If the fourth metatarsal is a stable fracture, it is possible to do physical work after 100 days; if it is an unstable fracture, it is necessary to do physical work after the fracture is completely healed.
1. The metatarsal is a weight-bearing bone structure. When a fracture occurs, it is usually necessary to treat the fracture aggressively to avoid affecting the prognosis and function. When the fourth metatarsal fracture is a stable fracture, the fracture can be treated conservatively, and the fracture will heal after 100 days, so it is appropriate to do physical work.
2. When the fourth metatarsal fracture is an unstable fracture, it needs to be treated with reduction and immobilization according to the fracture condition, and if the fracture is completely healed after 100 days, then it can be used for manual work.
Whether the fracture of the fourth metatarsal can do physical work after 100 days is mainly based on the healing of the fracture. When the fracture is healed satisfactorily, the fracture can do physical activity under the guidance of the doctor.
