It would be useful to consult an orthopedic surgeon. Consultation with a podiatrist may be okay after discussion with your primary care provider.

Xray and evaluation will help determine if removal of the fragments can improve symptoms. Agree that evaluation by a podiatrist or foot specialist by Workers Comp is appropriate.
