The 2nd, 3rd and 4th metatarsal fractures occur. If there is no displacement, it is generally about 4-6 weeks after surgery. After the plaster is removed, simple bedside activities can be started. The displaced fractures can only walk 2-3 months after surgery. The amount of activity should not be too large at the beginning. You need crutches or someone to walk.
