Body aches after broken 5th metatarsal Jones break

Posted , 5 users are following.

I was wondering if anyone else has had body aches in their arms  and/or legs after braking their foot? It is pretty painful...10X worst than the flu!! Thanks. Michelle

    Can't say about that, but I do know that the nerves in my feet go off something fierce and when that happens my knee collapses. It's like it has a direct connection. My knee will just buckle when the nerve in my foot shoots up through the ankle.

    I fractured my right arm & am now suffering with horrible pain in both arms as well as muscle swelling both forearms. Docs keep throwing stuff at the wall and can’t figure it out. You are right to think it’s worse than the flu! Let me know if you get any answers . I’ve been miserable for 9 weeks now. Am 22 weeks post op. No Doc will give any pain pills because the people that abused them  are now causing the people that need them to not get them.
