I have a broken metatarsal (third) it's a stress fracture before I knew what it was I walked on it for about 2 weeks. I have gotten an aching and shard pain in my ankle on the same foot. Is that normal? Should I be worried about my ankle too? Or is it just from limping and walking weird?

I had a fractured sesamoid bone in my foot and I walked on it for about 2 months before I told anyone. Over time, the area of pain seemed to expand, so I know what you're referring to. My doc said that it could be from the inflammation and the change in gait. The stiffness from being in a cast and a boot made my ankle extremely sore as well. I'd definitely run it by your doc though to make sure. Could be nothing, but you don't want to let it go if it's something. Good luck!
Hahaha, I didn't even realize that. I guess I started to say should a broken foot hurt my ankle. Or something of the sorts. Thanks!
