Broken bones hurt even after healing. Doctors do not fully understand causes of pain, but people often complain more when weather changes, when rain is coming, or when it is damp and cold. So it is technically not psychosomatic, but you can use your mind to help deal with any lingering pain you feel. For example, when it hurts, close your eyes and imagine being on vacation doing something you enjoy----like biking, swimming, Skateboarding, etc. Notice that your leg does not hurt as much when your mind is focused elsewhere. You can make imaginary trips even for a few minutes--it helps!

It depends on how badly it's broken some are normally 3-4 months others up to a year.Also try and take proper care of it(e.g do not poke it until it's fully healed).Don't worry , if the docter says it's going to be okay it will be okay.

Why does the cartilage piercing still hurt after three months and what is the bump on the back of the ear next to the hole?

The cartilage takes a long time to heal I've had mine done for over a year and it still really hurts and has not healed properly. I've still got the original earring in and i wouldn't change it until it is healed fully. The bump on the back of your ear is from getting it done with a gun instead of a hollow needle. It's all the skin and stuff shoved to the back.


Should you go to the doctor if your ear has been hurting for 3 days?

Any time you have unexplained pain you should see a doctor. Also if you have pain that lasts beyond what it should, for example if a wound is healed but it still hurts or if your sprained ankle is still hurting after over six weeks.

What does a broken foot feel like?

A sprained foot will often induce immediate swelling. It usually happens from coming down on your ankle wrong, or "rolling it." You will notice that with a sprained foot, you can still walk on it, but it is best to elevate it and put ice on it.
