Doc is vaping is bad for bone fracture healing ??

Vaping what ? If the contents of what you vape include nicotine, that drug has a negative effect on the small capillaries that are involved in supplying nutrients to the healing process. If healing delay is okay with you that is what vaping nicotine containing products can do.

Nicotine causes vasoconstriction which limits blood supply to bone so it can, yes.

Nicotine in any form is harmful to your health and healing of any tissue injury. For healthy diet: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/., exercise 30 minutes/day, drink enough water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. Get HPV and Covid vaccines. Wish you good health!
