Sesamoid bone

[SoCal]

Anyone ever break or fracture their sesamoid bone? I've been trying to heal mine for months to no avail. Wore the boot, tried immobilizing it, staying off of it. I tried icing it.... It has got better - but has just reached a steady state on pain that just never seems to go away.

I asked Doc for a shot to reduce swelling but he said there's nothing you can do for a bone swelling... Can't I get some sort of steroid to reduce the likely inflammation in the region?

MRI proved the DX btw.. so no sense wondering if that's what I have..

Any input greatly valued... driving me nuts and affecting my workouts...

I was prescribed meloxicam or something like that for inflammation on my shoulder when I thought I fucked up my rotator cuff. Mri showed it was major inflamation. Idk if that's just for tendons or whatever but it sure helped ALOT

Meloxicam is good actually amazing but made me nauseated.
