Stress Fractures
Discover Relief and Recovery for Stress Fractures with Our Podiatry Care
Are you experiencing persistent foot or lower leg pain that seems to worsen with activity? You may be dealing with a common yet painful condition known as stress fractures. At Crystal Coast Podiatry, we understand the impact that stress fractures can have on your daily life and mobility. Our dedicated team is here to provide expert care, diagnosis, and treatment tailored to your unique needs.
Understanding Stress Fractures
Stress fractures are tiny cracks or hairline fractures in the bones, typically caused by repetitive stress and overuse. They most commonly occur in the weight-bearing bones of the lower extremities, including the feet and shins. Athletes, active individuals, and those with certain medical conditions are at a higher risk of developing stress fractures.
Common Symptoms of Stress Fractures
Recognizing the signs of stress fractures is crucial for seeking timely treatment. Some common symptoms include:
- Pain: Persistent, localized pain during physical activity often subsides with rest.
- Swelling: Swelling or tenderness at the site of the fracture.
- Bruising: Discoloration or bruising in the affected area.
- Difficulty bearing weight: Discomfort when putting weight on the affected foot or leg.
If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, it’s essential to consult our podiatrist for a proper diagnosis and personalized treatment plan.
