heel can be fractur: If the heel is tender by pressing the two sides between your thumb and index it probably is fractured an Xray may not show it MRI will Stay off of it for 2 weeks as a trial by using crutches and then start gradually putting weight on it the following week to full weight bearing then get back with me See how you are doing
