A member asked:

What are signs a 5th metatarsal break is healing? do vitamins and milk help?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

5th met fx: Obviously xray is best sign of healing however pain will decrease as well as swelling if healing is progressing. Should be progressively less tender to the touch. You need a BALANCED diet but there is little indication that extra vitamins can really help. Excessive calcium(milk) will just end up in your urine
