A member asked:
What can you tell me about a stress fracture in the hip?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Several months: A stress fracture in the hip is more serious than almost any other stress fractures. It will take several months to heal and is unusual in that it is one of the few stress fractures that may require surgical fixation to allow the best result.
