I was playing basketball outside in my yard when I jumped to shoot the ball. I landed on my foot wrong to where it rolled inwards and fractured my foot on the landing. Two days later I went to the orthopedic to find out that I had a Jones fracture. I chose the non surgical option because I had never had an injury as serious as this one before and didn’t want to have surgery if it had a chance of healing on its own. I had to do eight weeks of non weight bearing in a cast. I just went back for my eight week appointment too. My doctor showed my X-rays and revealed that my fracture had pretty much completed filled back in and that it was healed. I just got put into a walking boot yesterday which I will be in for about three weeks along with physical therapy and I should be on my way to functioning normal again. If you have this fracture surgery is an option, but I can say from personal experience with this injury that it can heal properly without surgery as well. I’m an active 21 year old in good health, so I imagine that helped in the fracture healing process as well. I ate a diet largely focused on protein such as eggs and chicken, while also getting plenty of calcium by drinking milk and calcium supplements. I also took vitamin B and D supplements. I’m still on the road to recovery. This is only my second day in a walking boot and I still have to use crutches lightly to aid because of my foot and leg being sore from being in a cast for so long, but the pain is noticeably starting to go away since even yesterday. This is my personal experience with having a Jones fracture and I wish a speedy recovery to anybody reading that may be dealing with this same injury.
@@Manfredidu13 mine was a not displaced fracture. It’s been a little over three months since the injury and I’m pretty much fully back to normal at this point. I’m finishing up my last week of physical training this week with full functionality back in my ankle and foot now
Very helpful indeed. I have a Jones fracture and am at present wearing a boot but still in pain. I see the consultant next week so at least now I'll know what he's talking about. Thank you.
@@nuraisyah1482 I don’t think mine was. No surgery. Wore boot no bearing for 10 days then walked bearing softly for the other 6 weeks. I did sleep with the boot at night. I cleaned and slept with it. Then I looked online for some physical therapy to regain strength on the foot, which was surprisingly weak. After that I wore shoes with insole all day, couldn’t be barefoot (weak foot). I still wear shoes and it is a bit sore sometimes. Its almost 3 months I guess.
Jones fracture process succes for me Day:1-13 pain and swelling Day: 13-24 pain and swelling reduces day: 24-29 no more pain. a little swelling day: 29-52 no swelling or pain day: 53 x rays reveal reunion and full weight bearing (non weight bearing 6 weeks) Foods i ate: Almonds, 4 capsules fishoil a day, vitamin d/b/c/k(importnant!!!, eggs, almond milk, tuna, protein shakes, mackerel, rye bread, greens, bellpeppers, apples, and bananas. training: Gym weightlifting - but no exercises that put pressure on foot.
@@thomas6963ify hello sir i have been cast for 7 weeks and my cast is removed but after removal of cast , Doctor does an xray in which like according to me bone hasn't healed like crack size was same as it was on 1st day but doctor said that bone is healing and you should start walking with a stick but when I try to walk my foot is in pain.
@@Piyush_airy_ hi I'm having same type of scenario after 25 days doctor removed my cast but in xray the crack is still the same they told me to walk with a stick. How long it taken to fill the crack

@@MyProRc the first three weeks after surgery was painful and hard to sleep but its now three months later n i can walk perfectly and run n stand for long periods of time. as if it never happened. i did have to wear the boot n not walk on it for 6 weeks after surgery tho so that sucked
@@chiafashionista I really appreciate you getting back to me! So happy to hear you are better now though and back to normal! It’s looks like I will be starting on that route here shortly. Did you use a bone stimulator and can you feel the screw at all?
@@MyProRc absolutely! no problem i know how it feels as i was searching the internet looking for answers or other shared experiences and couldnt find much! and no i did not use a bone stimulator and barley even remember the screw is there. only when weather is cold a little or when ive been walking really far itll feel like a tingle but no pain
@@chiafashionista I totally appreciate you filling me in! That’s exactly how it is, the internet doesn’t have the exact answers you need so it’s been amazing being able to talk to you and get a first hand experience! I really really appreciate your help again and hope you are doing great and much better! I don’t have much to offer but if you ever need anything let me know! Thanks again! :)
The most comprehensive review of this topic ever.

Hi could you tell me how it evolved since then ? Was it a displaced or not displaced fracture ?
I just had this happen landing in sports as well. Any updates?😊
@@Manfredidu13 mine was a not displaced fracture. It’s been a little over three months since the injury and I’m pretty much fully back to normal at this point. I’m finishing up my last week of physical training this week with full functionality back in my ankle and foot now
Update: I officially was fully cleared a couple days ago so it took a little over 3 months for me to go from fracture to fully healed without surgery
@@rolltidegaming1179 that's great news. I'm 1 month in and i'm doing a radiography check wednesday
