Is It Safe To Fly Having A Fracture On The Foot?

I was told I had a sprain and walked on my foot for over six weeks. The swelling would not go down, went to a podiatrist who had an MRI done on my foot and found it was broken in three places. The MRI was sent directly to him and I do not see the Doc. until the end of the month. I do know my foot is fractured on the top of my foot but do not have a name for it. I am wearing a walking boot, no pain, and want to verify that is safe for me to fly, and walk as usual. Thank you, Jeannie
