Treatment needed: I would have x-rays done at this point. The foot may need immobilizing or you are being too active.

Go get an X-ray : Taken. Its the only way to confirm a fracture. Take care!

May have not: Healed. Normally bone takes 6-8 weeks and it should be immobilized and is a cam walker or post op shoe to prevent it from moving. Get another x-ray and see dr that treated you before.
