It all depends on what bone was broken and the severity of the fracture.
I once broke my 5th metatarcil bone(called a Jones Fracture).I didn't need surgury,but I had to be on crutches for THREE months,It took a long time to heal because the fracture site does not get good blood flow.This was the same injury suufered by Micheal Bennett when he was with the Vikings.Sad to say,but it also ended the career of Bill Walton
