It depends: Fracture healing depends on a number of factors including the severity of the break, the treatment the fracture receives, and the health of the patient. Small bones of the hand and foot usually heal within 6 weeks but some bones are much slower to heal.

Time to heal: It depends on the location of the break and other things such as medications you take, your diet, and smoking. In general, most break heel between 8-12 weeks.
