Hi Bess, sorry to hear about your fracture. Those ones can be nasty and to be honest you are still very early in the fracture healing process and to much exercise won't be good for it at this stage. The towel and marble exercises are nice but not for a few weeks yet. You need to have a fracture clinic review to see the state of the bony union as this is a notorious area for delayed healing.

Perhaps a first step to ease out some of the cramping sensations would be to move the foot and toes about in a warm foot bath. Also some massage to the shin and calf would be useful as the outside and calf areas of your legs are where the muscles that attach to your foot reside.

Gentle reflexology away from the fracture site might also be useful for pain. For now continue to take it slow and get back to the fracture clinic for a review if it is on offer.

Best of luck
