BINGO, thats the bone. definally giving it more than 10 days though, the bone is kinda off set, so they said the ortho will probally watch it heal, and if need be put a pin. personally, i dont want the pin, and have gone the "quick heal" route and ended my rollerblading career because of it. im going to pull a bubba steward/chad reed and take the extra time on the injury and make sure it heals right (reed JUST came back this weekend, he took like 10 rounds off for a broken hand).

Smart man, most people do not respect their feet. Last thing you want is an imperfect heal at your age ..... now my age...well ya just may say F it cause there ain't that much quality time left.

Ouch! Bummer about the foot. Looks like you'll need to do a "Take 2". Take your time, I always thought it took 6 wks for a bone to heal, is that not right? I broke my collar bone just putting around, got crossed up in a rut, wasn't even going fast, and just landed wrong, actually I think the bottom of my helmet is what did it as I landed and my neck went over and the bottom of my helmet hit it. I couldn't ride or do anything with that arm for a few weeks. And I didn't try to ride for about 6 wks. Hope it heals good and doesn't require a pin.

for the most part yes, but there are bones that take as much as 2-3 months though.

Thats the spirit. Kick back, relax, and just let the body do its thing to heal that bone. No need to push yourself and potenially inflict more damage.
