A member asked:
Dr diagnosed overuse injury of sesamoid in foot with possible stress fracture (but clean xray). car vibration making pain worse, what does that mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not a lot: The increased pain in your foot with car vibration is not a real specific complaint and so is not real useful. It could occur with just about any over use complaint or a stress fracture. An MRI or bone scan can usually distinguish between the two.
