It depends.: Bone healing usually takes 6-8 weeks depending on the type and location of the fracture. Each person has a different healing potential depending on age and overall health. Factors that may speed your recovery include: immobilization, elevation, good nutrition, follow your physicians’ instructions and do not smoke.

Depends: It depends where in the foot and what structures and how they are being treated. Best answered by your doctor.

Minor fx? : Never heard that before. If u have a fracture u need to rest it, immobilize it, and limit activity until it heals.
