If the foot shows a slight fracture, it can heal itself. Because the slight fracture injury is relatively light, it will not show obvious congestion, swelling, pain and limited movement of the foot. Therefore, after a slight fracture, as long as the foot is restricted from weight-bearing activities, the general fracture will gradually recover. After showing a fracture, be sure to limit the foot weight-bearing activities for 3-4 weeks to create conditions for fracture recovery. During bed rest, the affected limb should be raised, and drugs for activating blood circulation and removing blood stasis should be applied to promote the absorption and regression of foot congestion and swelling. Generally, after 3-4 weeks, there will be callus growth at the fracture site, and the fracture end will be stable, and light weight activities can be gradually carried out.
