A member asked:
How do you know when your stress fracture is healing?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pain decrease: Usually as the stress fracture, heals, the pain will diminish and the patient will gradually begin to walk better and with less pain. If the fracture is fully healed, one will be able to return to sports without the pain from the fracture.
