Leg fracture
Hi
I had a fracture in foot 4 months back.
Now when I went for X-ray, it is shown that the same has not heeled.
I have been given antiinflammatory medicine by doctor for 5 days now.
What should be the way forward if it doesn't settle with the above medicine in next 5 days?
Do I have to get into cast? And for how many weeks s?

It depends on the status and type of fracture.
Share x-rays.
