Projected healing: Key concept here is extent of damage and current alignment. Key components involve extent of damage (?comminuted fragments), and current alignment. Healing will occur unabated, but result may compromise function if there is resultant deformity. Since you have concerns, best you clarify whether indeed this is fractured---get an X-ray. Confer with your doctor.
