All About Stress Fractures
Bone Break vs. Fracture
Bone break and fracture are terms often used interchangeably, both referring to the same condition of a broken bone resulting from injury or trauma.
Proprioception refers to the body’s ability to perceive its own position in space. Learn how proprioception works and how it can be impaired and restored.
Signs, symptoms, and treatment for bone fractures involve pain, swelling, and realignment, often requiring immobilization or surgery.
Simple exercises restore proprioception, enhancing body awareness and coordination for improved balance and movement.
Stress Fracture Causes
Stress fractures result from repetitive force or overuse, prevalent in athletes and those with sudden increases in physical activity.
Stress Fracture Diagnosis
Stress fracture diagnosis involves imaging like X-rays or MRI, along with a thorough examination of symptoms and medical history.
Stress Fracture Risk Factors
Risk factors for stress fractures include overtraining and bone density issues, commonly affecting athletes and military personnel.
Stress Fracture Symptoms
Stress fracture symptoms include localized pain, swelling, and possible bruising, intensified during weight-bearing activities.
Stress fracture treatment: rest, gradual return to activity. Prevention involves proper footwear, training adjustments, and addressing risk factors.
What Is a Bone Spur?
Bone spurs form as new bone cells create protrusions. Two types are osteophytes and enthesophytes, terms occasionally used interchangeably.
Tendonitis is inflammation, tendinosis is degeneration, and tendinopathy is a broad term encompassing both conditions in tendon health.
Proven Effective Therapy to Stimulate Fracture Repair
Bone growth therapy is a safe, non-surgical treatment to activate the body’s natural healing process.
