Metatarsals are bones in your feet, they’re numbered.
The 5th is the outermost.
Theres a tendon that attaches in that area and when my foot fell off the skateboard while landing a kickflip I pogo sticked on the side of my foot and the tendon and bone had an argument about who was stronger … and I guess I got some strong ass tendons
I broke one of the small ones in the middle/ outside of my foot while simply stepping one step off my porch. The Doctor called it the cuboid bone, he asked how I did it . I told him “I stepped off the porch and heard a snap like a twig from my foot”. He got pretty upset and said " look man just tell me how it really happened! ". I told him again and he said there is no way thats what happened. He wrote me a perscription for hydrocodon. I took two days off work, drank 40’s, mixed the hydros with xanax and M box 30’s that I already had and had a nice few days
I ripped my 5th metatarsal off rolling my ankle like this, my foot is a Picasso painting now.
So that’s cool
Is that a fancy word for toe?!

Did you put it back?! Do you walk? Balance issues?
I wore a cast for a while. It healed.
2 decades later and I have a slight gait imbalance and the leg it happened to is slightly stronger (I can tell during squats) from accommodating that.
So glad you recovered fully from your internal de-toe-itation event!
