2-3-4 metatarsal fracture 10 weeks need to be given imaging examination, according to the formation of bone crust and activity judgment, external fixation, functional exercise or surgery.
1. Metatarsal fractures are generally in fair alignment, with initial healing of the fracture and formation of the bone scab over a period of 4 to 6 weeks. For fractures that occur 10 weeks after the fracture, it is recommended to perform an orthogonal X-ray of the foot to check the formation of the scab and then decide on the treatment plan based on the activity of the foot.
2. For the fracture where the bone scab formation is OK, the foot flexion and extension activities in bed have no effect, and there is no pain in local activities, and the weight-bearing activities can be carried out gradually with double crutches.
3. For the fracture with little or no obvious bone scab formation, it is recommended to continue external fixation with a brace, applying fracture-promoting drugs such as Xianling Bone Plough capsule and calcium supplements such as calcium carbonate.
4. For the fracture with obvious scab formation, but with obvious limitation of foot flexion and extension activities, and obvious deformity of the fracture, surgical correction is recommended.
Metatarsal fracture 10 weeks recommended active consultation, physician guidance treatment.
