A Jones fracture refers to a break in the fifth metatarsal, located between the base and midshaft of the bone on the outer side of the foot. It typically causes sudden pain, bruising, and difficulty walking, especially around the midfoot. This type of fracture often results from acute stress or trauma and can be slow to heal due to limited blood supply in that area.

A bunion is a bony deformity affecting the joint at the base of the big toe. It causes the big toe to angle inward toward the other toes, resulting in a protruding joint that may become red, swollen, and painful over time. The condition develops gradually and may lead to complications such as bursitis (inflammation of the fluid-filled sac around the joint) or arthritis in more severe cases.

A calcaneal fracture involves a break in the calcaneus, or heel bone. Symptoms include heel pain, bruising, swelling, difficulty walking, and sometimes a visible deformity. These fractures are often caused by high-impact trauma, such as landing on the feet after a fall from a significant height or from motor vehicle accidents. They may also be associated with spinal or hip fractures due to the force involved.
