Ok??? did he take x-rays for the "fracture"? I would call him back into the room and demand why the change in diagnosis. Can you get a 2nd opinion? I would. Too often, doctors think that we don't need to know details of why they change their diagnosis or worse yet... they don't look at the records and forget which patient they are talking about...
I hope your foot gets better.
Yes they took x-rays and my foot was in a soft cast for 4 weeks, + he had treated it for two weeks before the cast with pain patches. He told me it was worse than a brake? I just don't understand Dr's today.
You definitely need to find a new doctor. I would suggest an orthopedic physician; maybe check out sports injury physicians too.
