Have you ever felt pain in your foot and wondered if you have a stress fracture? ⠀⠀⠀ ? Do you want to know how to tell if you have a stress fracture? In this episode, I had the pleasure of talking with Podiatric Foot and Ankle Surgeon, runner, and triathlete, Dr. Elizabeth Bondi, DPM from Northern Illinois Foot and Ankle Specialists. Dr. Bondi provided a ton of value educating us on diagnosis, prognosis, treatment, prevention and how we can get back to running after a stress fracture. All of the following questions are answered and so much more! - What is a stress reaction or stress fracture? - What causes a stress fracture? - How do I know if I have stress fracture? - How to diagnose a stress fracture in the foot? - Can you run on a stress fracture? - How long do stress fractures take to heal? - What happens if a stress fracture is left untreated? - What exercise can I do with a stress fracture in my foot? Thank you for taking the time to listen to this epidsode and I hope it helps you stay active and running without ever suffering a stress fracture!
