Best Answer

I had a heel bruise(policemans heel) caused by a slip on the ice in December 2008, I had it xrayed the following day. I was told it was not fractured and given Ultram. I still have the Ultram, being that it did not improve the condition. It was a difficult period for 2 months, it was about a week ago the pain stopped, this being the date of 3-29-09. The suggestion I have if not fractured is an aircast or thick cushioned shoes. A cane will help also, you can buy one for under 20 at most stores. I did not stay off of the foot until it was at the point I could not walk, which was about every 3 minutes at the start. Then 5, 6, 7, 20, until it healed. Do have anything in pain xrayed too rule out the possibility of a fracture.

What is the fibla?

The fibula is also known as the calf bone. It is the smaller of the two bones that run between the knee and ankle. The other bone in the calf is the tibia. The fibula and the tibia are connected at the top and bottom. At the top, near the knee, the fibula ends without making up part of the knee joint. At the bottom, it forms one part of the ankle joint. This bone is unique because it is so slender. Compared to the length of the fibula, it is remarkably small in diameter. It is not a weight bearing bone, but its neighbor, the tibia, bears the weight in the leg.
