Jones Fracture
See, in the middle of the arch, that bone that is sticking down with the diagonal gap. That gap isn’t supposed to be there.
I was offered a choice.
1. Full leg cast for 10 weeks and it might work. If it didn’t then either recast or surgery.
2. Surgery. Cut the side of the foot, screw in a nice, expensive titanium screw, sew up. Recovery 4 weeks. Wikipedia says this is the only way to go for an athlete!
I won’t take pain meds. I dislike drugs. Surgery, really?
I picked surgery. Scheduled for next Tuesday.
Oh, can’t drive.
Oh my!

As you should. If I had the recovery process you did, I’d probably be breaking something all of the time.

Ah, now it is beginning to feel like entrapment, which if you read my blog, you know I am in search of.
