Subject: Re: My id fractured her metatarsal. Doctor says in six weeks she should be okay to dance. Anyone out there had experience with this? more inside Author: Shannon [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 12:23:38 04/03/05 Sun In reply to: ID mom 's message, "My id fractured her metatarsal. Doctor says in six weeks she should be okay to dance. Anyone out there had experience with this? more inside" on 07:08:37 04/01/05 Fri I do know of one dancer from my school that has had the same injury on both feet at separate times. She was fine to dance in about 6-8 weeks, keeping in mind that the first few weeks back to dancing were not full force. The other thing to seriously consider is going to see a physiotherapist, this seriously reduces the time that it takes for the injury to heal. Best of luck.
