I want to ask about plantar facilitis co
2 weeks ago I was denied care by the ER. I can now tell i fractured my 2nd, 3rd, 4th, & 5th toe, I fractured my 2nd, 3rd, 4th & 5th metatarsal close to the toe end, & I fractured my 4th & 5th metatarsal close to the ankle end. In 4 more weeks when I am ready to start walking on it again if I get a plantar facilitis compression sock is the arch support feature going to put too much of my weight distribution on my 4th & 5th metatarsals which are hurt the worst? Would an ankle brace at that time do me any good at all?
