Fractures of the 5th metatarsal may occur in the base or shaft (diaphysis). Fractures of the diaphysis can be acute or stress fractures. Because these fractures have very different treatments and prognoses, accurate diagnosis is important. Diagnosis is with x-rays. Treatment depends on the location of the fracture.
(See also Overview of Fractures.)
Pain, swelling, and tenderness are usually well-localized to the fracture site.
Diagnosis of the 5th metatarsal is based on anteroposterior, lateral, and oblique foot x-rays.
