time or treatment?

I fractured my 5th metatarsal 6 months ago now and still have disfigured side of foot that is painful to touch and reddens even after just a long walk. I’m getting seriously fed up especially as it’s my first year at uni and finding it hard to go out to clubs. Should I go back to the doctors to see if something can be done or am I wasting their time? They’re not very friendly doctors here and when I went 3 months ago she treated me as if i’d come in with a broken nail or something! Please help me!!!!

    I am sorry this has happened to you. I do not feel that a patient’s concerns should ever be dismissed. Even if it is minimal, I try to explain as much as they will understand. Ask around for a referral to any other doctors who will be more helpful. Good luck.
