Broken Metarsal Treatment

Is it more common to use a cast boot or an acctucal cast for a 5th metarsal stress fracture.
No jones fracture just a simple stress fracture?
Thanks, Justin

    The answer is whatever the doctor’s preference is. If the patient fits in a cast boot and is comfortable, then great. If not, then a cast is applied.
