Causes of Foot Fractures and Breaks
You are more susceptible to fractures if the bones, ligaments and tendons in your foot and ankle are weak. Fractures occur when there is trauma to the bone. Trauma may include:
- Rolling the ankle inward or outward
- Twisting the ankle from side to side
- Applying too much force to the ankle or foot
- Falling a heavy object on foot
- A fall
Treatments of Foot Fractures and Breaks
If the fracture is mild and not much complicated, a non-surgical treatment is enough to heal it. However, for this type of treatment procedure, patient must take adequate rest, apply ice on the area as per doctor’s recommendation, and wrap the area to control swelling.
However, in case of more severe foot fracture, surgery may be necessary to cure the fracture and any ligament or tendon damage.
