Will Taking D3 Supplements Help With Three Broken Metatarsal Bones, And A Torn Tendon Injury Which Required Surgery?

I have been taking D3 supplements (2000 IUs ea; six gel tabs a day) to help with three broken metatarsal bones, and a torn tendon injury which required surgery last year. Will this help? I am also taking Calcium, Magnesium and Zinc with Vitamin D3 as a dietary supplement daily. Also, will this help?

Hi,

Have you done with surgery or not? Supplements are not replacement of surgery, they can only aid in healing not a replacement.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
