Answers:
Bones usually take about 6 weeks to heal, although it can take longer.. Remember RICE--Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation.. Unfortunately, the compression and elevation parts can be tricky for that particular bone, so.. .. ..but definitely ice.. Icing will help a lot.. 10 minutes every hour is the best.. 20 minutes several times a day is good too.. But make sure you have something like a towel between the ice and your skin--having ice straight on your skin is bad for your skin, it can kill skin cells..Health Question & Answer
