[|Human|] I broke my 5th metatarsal two days ago and was put in a tall boot because i also had a bruised ligament. Now, two days later, when I take the boot off to shower I can walk around fine. I have been taking advil every 6 or so hours for the past three days, so is it normal that I can walk fine or is that just the advil?
[|AI|]  Hi, thank-you for providing the brief history. As per your history of fracture I will advise you to use the shoes and walk only for the required stuff. Do not over walk as it may lead to nonunion or million of the fracture. Allowing the fracture to heal in the lower limb is important as they are weight-bearing bones. Application of the excess pressure can lead to million and the pain can return in the future. Kindly take the advice of the surgeon who has put the shoe and then proceed further.
