Hi,

I broke my 5th metatarcal around 6 months ago when i was training with my current club Blackburn Rovers. Sadly I had to have an operation because it was healing so I had a fixed screw put in to make it heal faster it wasn’t as bad as I expected. 2 weeks after the operation I started to put full pressure on my foot. My consultant said that I couldn’t run for another 6 weeks, I was gutted! About a month ago I went to see my consultant again and I was allowed to start running to build my fitness levels back up. Now I am just a week off going back into training with my club. I missed the euro qualifiers in Belguim for England u17s but hopefully I will be involved in April for the second round!!
