What Is a Stress Fracture?
A stress fracture is an injury caused by overuse… This occurs when muscles are not able to handle the impact from sport or other high impact activity. The muscles not being able to handle the stress, so the bones beneath absorbs the impact resulting in a break. Stress fractures can occur when increasing activity that the body is in no way physically prepared for!
Stress fractures are very common in people that are trying to get fit too quickly!
Keep in mind that the majority of stress fractures occur in the lower legs and feet. Stress fractures cause pain with activity and woman are more likely to get stress fractures then men. Rest is prescribed for 8 weeks to allow the stress fracture to heal … However Bowen Therapy, a special shoe, or a brace helps decrease stress on the bone to help facilitate healing.
