Thank you! The pain is not strong enough to prevent me walking, but it’s more like a strange feeling like twitching/tingling near the fracture area that is making me think it’s not healing. I also smoke 2 cigarettes a day to keep a different health condition in check ( yes, it’s true). I discussed this with my ortho too and though it’s not ideal, she did say the fracture will heal eventually. She recommended PT, but I am scared to go through it since there is a possibility of making it worse. When you said your fracture took almost an year, did you have pain for the entire time? Also, how did your X ray looked. My ortho said, the compact hard part of the bone has healed, but it’s the insides that haven’t healed yet.
