What is Stress Fracture?

A stress fracture is a small crack or severe bruising within a bone, commonly resulting from overuse or repetitive force, often seen in athletes or individuals who engage in high-impact activities.

Stress fractures commonly affect the lower legs and feet but can occur in other areas subjected to repetitive stress. Symptoms include localized pain, tenderness, and swelling, particularly during activity. With proper treatment and care, it’s possible to heal from a stress fracture, relieve pain, and prevent future injury.

Are You Struggling with Pain and Limitations from a Stress Fracture?

Living with a stress fracture can make daily life challenging, especially when physical activity brings sharp pain and discomfort. Activities such as walking, running, or standing for long periods may become painful, limiting your ability to stay active or participate in sports. You may feel frustrated by the restrictions and eager to return to your usual routine. With the right care, you can recover effectively, relieve pain, and strengthen your bones to reduce the risk of future fractures.

Stress Fractures are Painful – But You Don’t Have to Be Held Back

  • Physical Limitations: Pain and tenderness that make movement difficult and restrict physical activity.
  • Emotional Impact: Frustration from reduced activity levels, concerns about re-injury, and the desire to get back to sports or exercise.
  • Fairness: Everyone deserves access to effective care that supports their recovery, helps prevent recurrence, and allows them to return to an active lifestyle.
