2.3.4 how does metatarsal phalangeal fracture do?

If there is no displacement after fracture, we can fix the injection with adhesive tape first, then bandage it with bandage. If necessary, we can also fix it with plaster boots (walking with rubber heel) for about 6 weeks. Other metatarsal base fractures without displacement can also be treated with the same method.

If the second, third and fourth metatarsal neck fracture still appears displacement, we should first use manipulative reduction, and then use short leg plaster fixation, otherwise after recovery, there will be abnormal connection, which will certainly affect the walking. If the reduction is not successful, it can be operated and fixed with steel needle.

In the second and third metatarsal neck or shaft fractures, can also occur in the tibia. Generally no displacement, also known as fatigue fracture. Most of the fractures occurred unconsciously, without a history of trauma, and the symptoms were not serious. Only a little pain in the early affected foot, local mild swelling, feeling fatigue and discomfort in the foot, and sometimes more callus were found.

matters needing attention

Patients should rest properly during the treatment, early with arch support, tape fixation or plaster fixation for about 3 weeks, can prevent excessive callus formation. Later, the arch pad (transverse arch and longitudinal arch pad) can be used to disperse the gravity until the symptoms disappear. There were no complications after healing.
