Broken metatarsals!

[Goodsoulette]

Anyone else broken a couple of these at once. Any tips on quick healing? Vitamin supplements, diet etc... Wembley next week and Pilton the week after. Needs to be much better quicker than the projected 6 weeks. Its the 3rd and 4th if that helps.

i broke three toes last august and spent 5 weeks off work in agony and the second one next to the big toe is still pretty numb, it isn't just rest and time off your feet, it's a case of luck you know, if you are lucky enough to be able to take 8 weeks off work, you will be ok

I'm not sure which bones the metatarsals are but I broke 2 toes last year playing barefoot footy with a beach ball in someone's living room and tried to leave the straps on as long as possible. I would avoid Wembley and concentrate on Glasto, and try not to use your feet much and don't wear anything on your feet if you can help it. You'll probably be fine for getting about by then, maybe not do too much dancing though. Either that or sell your tickets for way more than they cost, watch it all on tv and head up to another cheaper festival with way more spending money than you would have had for the others!

Just get some crutches and don't be such a wimp! There were lots of folk on crutches at rockness and they brought some folding chairs along so they could have a seat! If you get properly anihilated you won't feel anything k? ;-)
