I have a fracture on outside middle of foot. Swelling and bruising are gone, but still a knot and tender to the touch. I am 4 wks into the injury and concerned about the knot and if calcium deposits are building. I keep foot wrapped but not sure if it has been tight enough. What else can I do?
Hi You had a fracture in the middle of foot about 4 weeks ago and are feeling painful knot in the foot. This is a normal healing process when the bones unite, unless there is some MAL position of fractures. There is formation of lump(callus) around fracture which slowly disappears over few months for it to disappear. So don't worry about it now, just reassess after a month or so.
