    I had a Jones Fracture. I had surgery done and a screw was placed to hold bones in place. I had a fiberglass cast for 4 weeks. Xray taken,another cast for 4 weeks. Then a walking boot for 2 weeks. Now I am in a supportive sneaker but the swelling in my ankle is great I walk with a limp and my heals are always sore. Is this a normal recovery for this type of fracture? Will the swelling ever go down.
