Fɔ tɔk am simpul wan, wan lɔng bon de na di say we de na do na yu fut, we kin kɔnɛkt to yu smɔl fut . Yu kin ivin fil am wit yu an. insay mεdikal tεm dεm, wi kin kכl dis bon di `5th Metatarsal bon` . so, we dis bon brok כ split fכ sכm rizin, wi kin kכl am `5th Metatarsal Fracture`. Dis na rili wan tin we kin apin to pɔsin in fut pas aw wi kin tink.

Ɛni kayn fraktrɔs ya de?

yes, dis `(5th Metatarsal Fracture)` dεn sheb am to tri men tכp dεm, dipכnt pan usay di bon de brok. Dɔktɔ dɛn kin kɔl dɛn tin ya akɔdin to di zon we gɛt fɔ du wit am. Wi kin kɔl dɛn Zɔn 1, Zɔn 2, ɛn Zɔn 3 .

Zon 1: Avulshɔn Fraktrɔs

Dis na di kayn frakshɔn we kin bɔku pas ɔl . Imajin, lεk 93 pasεnt pan dεm dεn kכl dεm ``Avulsion Fractures''. wetin de apin ya na dat we dεn pul wan tεndon כ ligament we tayt tayt pan di bon tu hat wan wan, dat tεndon כ ligament de kכmכt na di bon wit sכm sכm pat pan am.

dis kin apin bכku tεm we di lεg de rol insay (lεk we di ankכl spεrayn). Sɔntɛnde, dɔktɔ dɛn kin mistek tink se we pɔsin in anklɛ sprain fɔ avulsion fracture bikɔs di pen ɛn swel na kɔmɔn tin fɔ dɛn ɔl tu.

Zon 2: Jɔns Fraktrɔs

dis kayn frakshכn we dεn kכl ``Jones Fracture,'' de apin na wan sכm, spεsifi k εria na di fayv mεtatarsal bon. Na jɔs se di blɔd we de gi am smɔl pas di ɔda pat dɛn na di bon . Yu no se we di blɔd nɔ bɔku, ɛni wund kin tek lɔng tɛm fɔ wɛl, ɛn di chans fɔ mek difrɛn prɔblɛm dɛn apin bak kin bɔku. Na dat mek dis ``Jones Fracture'' kin tek smɔl tɛm fɔ wɛl, ɛn i kin mek kɔmplikeshɔn bak.

dis kin bi strεs frakshכn, we na sכm sכm hairlayn krak we kin kכz fכ kכntinyu fכ prεsh di bon ova tεm. Ɔ i kin bi akyu brek we aksidɛnt apin wantɛm wantɛm.I kin apin bak pan dɛn we ya.

Dis nɔ kin bɔku pas di Avulsion Fracture we wi bin dɔn tɔk bɔt, ɛn i nɔ kin izi bak fɔ mɛn smɔl.

Zon 3: Mid-shaft Frakshכn כ Dansa in Frakshכn

dis dεn kin kכl am bak ``Mid-shaft Fracture'', εn sכmtεm dεn kin kכl am ``Dancer's Fracture'' . I go bi se dɛn gi am di nem bikɔs i kin apin to pipul dɛn we de dans, mɔ we dɛn de land frɔm jomp.

Udat kin gɛt fraktrɔs lɛk dis?

fכ tru, dis `(5th Metatarsal Fracture)` kin apin to enibodi . Ɛnibɔdi frɔm yɔŋ pikin to ol pɔsin kin gɛt dis sik. Bɔt we dɛn luk di mɛdikal ripɔt ɛn data, dɛn se i kin apin mɔ pan man dɛn we dɔn pas 30 ia ɛn uman dɛn we dɔn pas 70 ia . dεn kin se bak se di `(Avulsion Fracture)` εn `(Mid-shaft Fracture)` we wi bin dכn tכk bכt, dεn kin kכmכn sכmtεm pan uman dεm pas man dεm.

Wetin kin mek dɛn fraktrɔs ya?

Fɔ tɔk am simpul wan, di men tin we kin mek dis apin na sɔm kayn aksidɛnt ɔr strɛs fɔ lɔng tɛm (trauma ɔr strɛs we de ripit) na yu fut. Tink bɔt tin dɛn lɛk dis:

Wetin na di sayn dɛm we de sho se yu gɛt dis sik?

If yu gɛt `(5th Metatarsal Fracture)`, di fɔs tin we yu go notis na fɔ mek i nɔ izi fɔ waka . Sɔntɛm yu nɔ go ivin ebul fɔ put yu fut dɔŋ. Apat frɔm dat, yu kin notis dɛn sayn ya na yu fut bak (na di smɔl fut):

We yu go to dɔktɔ we gɛt dɛn sik ya, i go aks yu sɔm kwɛstyɔn dɛn fɔs . Aw i bin apin, aw lɔng di pen dɔn de, ɛn ustɛm di pen kin wɔs? Dɔn di dɔktɔ go tek tɛm luk yu fut fɔ si usay i de at, aw i swel, ɛn if di bon de fil lɛk se i de muv rawnd.

Dɔn, dɛn kin du sɔm imej tɛst dɛn fɔ kɔnfɔm di kɔndishɔn ɛn fɔ no di rayt we aw di fraktrɔs tan:

• X-ray: Dis na di tɛst we dɛn kin du pas ɔl. X-ray kin sho usay yu bon brok ɛn aw i brok. Bɔt sɔm fraktrɔs, lɛk di Jones Fracture we wi bin dɔn tɔk bɔt, nɔ kin si pan ɛkstrem rayt.
• CT skan (computed tomography scan) ɔ MRI (magnetic resonance imaging): If yu dɔktɔ sɔprayz se Jones Fracture ɔ i want fɔ si mɔ tin bɔt di fracture, dɛn kin ɔda fɔ mek dɛn tek CT scan. dis skan dεm kin sho di bon εn di sכft tisu we de rawnd am bכku bכku wan.

Aw dɛn kin trit am?

di tritmεnt fכ ``5th Metatarsal Fracture'' de dipכnt pan sεvεra tin dεm. di men tin we yu fכ tink bכt na if di bon fragmεnt dεm we brok na ``displaced`` כ ``aligned`` . Apat frɔm dat, yu:

• Aktiviti lɛvɛl: Tin dɛn lɛk if yu na atlet ɔ pɔsin we de waka bɔku.

• Ɔl di wɛlbɔdi biznɛs.

Afta yu dɔn tink bɔt ɔl dɛn tin ya, yu dɔktɔ go disayd di tritmɛnt we go fayn fɔ yu. Tu men tritmɛnt dɛn de we yu kin gɛt:

1. Fɔ mek pɔsin nɔ ebul fɔ muv

If yu bon fragmɛnt dɛn nɔ muf, we min se dɛn stil de na di sem ples, yu dɔktɔ go mɔs tɛl yu fɔ kip yu leg stil. Dɛn kɔl dis fɔ mek pɔsin nɔ muv .

• Fɔ di Zone 1 Avulsion Fracture we wi bin tɔk bɔt, bɔku tɛm na dis nɔmɔ na di tritmɛnt.
• dis ``(Immobilization)'' kin bi bak as fכs step fכ Zon 2 Jones Fracture .

Dis min se yu nɔ fɔ muv yu leg wit kɔst, spɛshal but, ɔ sus we gɛt stif.. Dis go gi di bon we brok chans fɔ wɛl fayn fayn wan. Yu go nid fɔ yuz kruk bak insay dis tɛm, bikɔs i nɔ fayn fɔ put wet pan di leg. Bɔku tɛm yu go gɛt fɔ kip am we nɔ de muv fɔ lɛk siks to et wiks .

2. Ɔpreshɔn

Sɔntɛnde, dɛn kin nid fɔ du ɔpreshɔn. Dɛn tin ya na:

• if yu bon fragmεnt dεm dכn muv pas 3 milimita (`displaced`) .
• If yu na elit atlet ( bikɔs yu want fɔ wɛl kwik ɛn kam bak to spɔt).
• If di Zon 2 Jones Fracture nɔ de ansa di tritmɛnt we dɛn bin de ɛkspɛkt fɔ mek dɛn nɔ ebul fɔ muv.
• Bɔku tɛm dɛn kin se dɛn fɔ du ɔpreshɔn fɔ Zon 3 (`Zon 3 Mid-shaft ɔ Dancer’s Fracture`) .

Insay dis ɔpreshɔn, wan dɔktɔ we de mɛn fut ɛn anklɛ (Foot and Ankle Surgeon) kin put smɔl pin, skru, stik, ɔ plet insay di bon fɔ mek di bon we dɔn brok na in ples. Dɛn implant ya kin de na di bɔdi ivin afta di bon dɔn wɛl ɛn dɛn nɔ kin pul dɛn.

Sɔntɛnde, dɛn kin nid fɔ pul di bon we dɔn pwɛl rawnd di say we di bɔdi brok ɛn put bon graft insay . Dis min se yu fɔ chenj di bon we dɔn pwɛl wit wan pat pan yu bon we kɔmɔt na ɔda pat na yu bɔdi ɔ ɔda say. Yu kin yuz bak wan tin we dɛn kɔl bon hiling stimulator , we kin ɛp di bon fɔ wɛl kwik kwik wan.

Kɔmplikɛshɔn kin apin afta dɛn dɔn trit am?

As wit eni mεdikal tritmεnt, sכm komplikεshכn kin apin afta tritmεnt fכ `(5th Metatarsal Fracture)`. Bɔt dɛn tin ya nɔ kin apin to ɔlman, ɛn ɛnibɔdi difrɛn. Sɔm pan di prɔblɛm dɛn we kin apin mɔ na:

• Blɔd we de klɔt : Ɛspɛshali afta dɛn dɔn ɔpreshɔn am bikɔs di leg nɔ de muv.
