Foot Fractures

About this condition

The foot has many small bones, and fractures range from simple toe breaks to injuries of the midfoot and heel that change how the foot bears weight. Some settle in a boot or cast; unstable or displaced injuries may need fixation.

What you may notice

Pain and swelling after a twist, drop or crush injury to the foot.

How we help

Imaging to see which bones are involved, then a boot or cast, or surgical fixation for unstable or displaced fractures.

This page is general information. The right option depends on your examination and scans, so please book a consultation for advice on your own case.
