How long can the fracture of the base of the fifth toe heal

After the fracture at the base of the fifth toe, the healing time of the fracture mainly depends on the degree of tissue damage at the broken end of the fracture. If the fracture occurs at the broken end, it is only caused by a simple foot sprain. In this case, the soft tissue damage around the fracture is not serious, and the blood supply inside the fracture is also relatively good. Generally, the healing time is two to three months. If the fracture at the base of the fifth toe is an open fracture, and the fracture displacement is obvious, accompanied by comminuted fracture, the healing time is relatively long, because the blood circulation around the broken end of the fracture is seriously damaged, so the healing time is more than three months, and some patients do not heal because of serious blood circulation damage.
