Brief Answer:
Please see detailed answer below..

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

I have gone through your query and here is my advice.

As your orthopedician said that it healed already, so I think nothing to concern. Usually after toe fracture, it takes around 6 weeks to recover completely in case of haireline/minor fracture.

In between you should not give direct pressure on that foot and use support while walking. Use soft cushioned well fitted shoes.

For pain, you can take tablet acetaminophen. Apply ice pack. In case of severe pain, I would suggest you to do follow up with Othopedician. He may procure repeat x ray as per evaluation. Further treatment mainly depends upon underlying condition.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
