What are the chances of breaking a stress fracture femur
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It's already broken.: The chances of it becoming a displaced fracture becomes more possible if you do not follow your orthopedic surgeons plan of care. They R due 2 the bone being stressed beyond its ability to handle what you were doing 2 cause it.
