UPDATE!
I broke my foot on June 23rd when I was thrown onto the edge of a low platform during a warm up for Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. One of those stupid avoidable injuries.
At first, I thought it was just bruised and I was able to finish the class and drive home, walk the dogs etc. The following morning however, I couldn’t put any weight on it at all. I hobbled around for a day, iced it and finally took the advice everyone was giving me and went to the hospital.
The x-rays clearly showed a broken bone. The doctor told me I could have an air cast or wear a supportive shoe. I chose the latter because I felt it would give me more mobility.
The first couple of weeks were a bit painful and I limped to favour the injured foot. I continued to roll at the club but I was careful.
After about 4 weeks I was able to walk a bit better but still with a a pronounced limp. I could bear about 60% of normal weight without too much pain.
By 6 weeks after the injury I was able to bear full weight on the foot but it still hurt a bit. I didn’t try to run. There was still a noticeable bump at the injury site that was tender to the touch. Sitting cross-legged was too painful to attempt but overall it felt good.
Then we went to Europe and walked A LOT for 16 days. Although I could feel the injury, it did not trouble me. It ached a bit at the end of the day and was still a bit tender to the touch.
Now it is approximately 95% healed. Still a bit tender if I bump it. I rolled last night and didn’t notice it at all. I may try and run on it this weekend.
So you can expect 8-10 weeks for a simple fracture like this. I’m sitting cross-legged on my mats in the basement as I type, and it seems just fine.
So if you do fracture your foot in the same fashion, that is what I went through, so it might by similar for you.
