Usually yes. The duration of the pain will depend on where the fracture is. For example, the pain from a fractured rib can last 6 weeks- 2 months since this area is always moving when you breathe and takes longer to heal. I have fractured my rib twice and my ankle and the pain for both lasted for quite a while. Just rest it as much as you can and get as much calcium and vitamin D as you can to help the healing process of the bone.
