I would probably be doing surgery on that to fixate the fractures, depending on where they broke and how displaced they are. You have to get the parabola of the metatarsal heads right, both how far they stick out and how much they stick down. Had a nice schizophrenic man with similar injuries, pinned all 4 percutaneously, ran pin up toe while holding metatarsal in reduced position, handy to have fluoroscope available.
You are going to be on crutches for a month easy, consider getting a roll-a-bout(sort of like a scooter, rest your knee on it), can lease or buy, unless you are good at crutches.
You broke 4 of the 5 bones bearing weight at the ball of your foot, how they line up will impact how you walk, for the rest of the time you are alive and kicking.
