First up: consult your G.P. S/he may refer you to a hospital, and/or make proper suggestions as to how you help the injury to heal. Whatever s/he tells you... DO IT! Its for your own good! As with any injury that invoves a weight-bearing muscle or bone structure; try to keep the weight off it as much as possible. Your G.P will probably tell you this. Dont be afraid to be seen using walking aids. It might look odd but will allow your injury to heal that much faster. Taking shortcuts with this can lead to problems later in life. Lastly: Consult your G.P! I know you havent done it yet, and you really should! What he/she will tell you is worth a million answers from here, and will have the added insight of first-hand inspection of the injury!

A fracture is a complete break in a bone, while a hairline fracture is a small, partial crack in the bone. Hairline fractures may not be easily visible on imaging studies and can be more difficult to diagnose compared to regular fractures. Treatment for hairline fractures usually involves rest and immobilization to allow healing.
