I'm intending on going on a ski vacation to Breckenridge
in 3 weeks. But I'm thinking I have a navicular fracture is there a way to tape it up to take some of the edge off? I've tried skiing on it right after I did it, after I could put weight on it and it did suck. It sucked quite badly. I'm thinkin' hammer down some pain killers and a few shots. But I don't want my ski season to be over. Not after how long and hard I've worked this year. I figure I'm tough as nails considering last year I skied on a torn MCL
Uh oh, I think I broke'd the lift

Take it easy on yourself. You want your body to last a lifetime, not just one winter.

Iceghost,

I would not recommend using pain killers as a mask ! Pain is telling you something. Constant pain is telling you something even more.

I assume you are young. You have many years of skiing ahead. Do not make situation worst! Skiing on torn ligament is not asking for more trouble!
What will you do when both knees are gone!
You might be tough as nails,,,but body can only take so much! Time to let nature take its course and heal!
