Thanks for this helpful video Maryke! I went on an overnight hike 5 weeks ago and on my way back started to feel this pain, but had to finish another 2 hours to get to my car. Thought it had to do with my tendons and only went to physio after 3 1/2 weeks. He gave me some exercises to do, but a week later he said he thinks it's not my tendons but a stress fracture. Having a xray next week, although possibly won't see a thing. MRI too expensive. Anyway, I'm confused as he told me to continue with these exercises and mentioned he could give me a moonboot, but then didn't. Your advise is to immobilize and put no weight on the foot for 6-8 weeks. I won't be able to do that because I still need to go to work. I need to drive there and use my sore foot for driving, but it actually isn't super sore. When walking it starts hurting after about 10 minutes, sometimes hurts when I wake up. Is there a middle ground, e.g. wearing the boot on my days off (I only work 2 days a week). I doubt the doctor would give me 6-8weeks off work for this. I'm also wondering to go to a podiatrist and see if insoles could help as a friend of mine said it helped when she had a stress fracture. Will it never go away if I keep putting weight on it? I'm in New Zealand and the health system is not the best and surgery not an option. Thanks for any advice you may be able to give 🙏

@SportsInjuryPhysio Жыл бұрын

Hi Nadine - getting the diagnosis right is very important because if it is just a tendon injury (and these can linger long) then putting it in a boot for 6 weeks is really not a good idea vs. if it is a stress fracture then that is what is needed. If MRI is too expensive, could you get an ultrasound? Ultrasound won't show the bone but it can show the tendons and it can help to see if your tendon is injured or not. I can't really give any specific treatment advice without having an in depth conversation about your symptoms and doing some tests as my advice may be totally wrong if I don't know all the details.

@SportsInjuryPhysio 2 жыл бұрын

Reduce the load bearing exercise and work on really strengthening your foot and legs and then when you do go back to sport, you have to ease into it really slowly. It may also be wise to have your footwear checked. If you wanted more specific rehab advice and an exercise plan, this is also something that our team of physios can help you with via video call.

Excellent video. You talk a lot more sense than many other videos on this subject. I have suspected navicular stress fractures in both feet from running too much. I'm awaiting MRI scans for confirmation but in the meantime I have Aircast boots. I wore the boots the whole time for the first couple of days but my skin became very itchy and I'm convinced the boots will cause major skin problems if I wear them all day for 2 months. Can I take the boots off in bed or when I'm at my desk, if I avoid putting any weight on the feet? Obviously it's impossible to eliminate all movement between the feet and lower legs if I do that.

It is usually OK to remove the boot if you're not putting weight on your feet but check with your doc to make 100% sure.

@stripe999 Жыл бұрын

Perhaps worth mentioning that it doesn't only arise for people who run and do sports. I simply tripped and fell, hitting my foot on the ground. Bruising and swelling were extensive but it only hurt for the first couple of days. X-rays showed the bone was chipped, so I've been advised by the clinic (NHS walk-in Minor Injuries Clinic) to use the boot when moving around for 4-6 weeks, though not when simply sitting or lying down (not sure if it's worth putting it on to walk a few feet inside the apartment). Using ice packs (frozen peas wrapped in a tea towel are fine) and elevation should also speed recovery, and a follow-up appointment will advise on physio.

@SportsInjuryPhysio Жыл бұрын

Your case is actually a bit different - this video is about stress fractures which develop due to repetitive strain. Yours is an acute fracture that developed due to trauma and sounds like only an avulsion fracture (where a bit chips off). So the treatment in your case should be much more straight forward luckily! Good luck with your recovery.

Thank you for explaining perfectly my ankle symptoms that I suffered with for months. I knew nothing about the bones in my foot and have learned so much! There was no sudden injury, just a mild pain after tennis, then I supported my ankle with tight fitting boots thinking that would help (but evidently thanks to this website I discovered that I must have I prevented good circulation another reason it got worse) Shame I did not find the website and sooner! It was puffy, sore to touch and at times pain up my whole leg and around all my foot. I raised it regularly and iced it. I went to the doctor and because the symptoms were so vague I just got sent to a physio who also had no idea what had happened and gave me balancing exercises that obviously did not help and that’s why my usual yoga poses did not help me either. No mention of an x ray. I was hobbling and could not rest as it was a busy time at Christmas standing all day in the kitchen. I was taking Vit D but my diet probably was not right. Nothing improved until I went to a podiatrist 4 months after my initial pain and found this website! He mentioned a stress fracture and suggested I have tests for osteoarthritis. Fortunately I do not feel the need for surgery but feeling back to normal after changing to better footwear, orthotics and doing the right exercises. Looking forward to playing tennis again soon.

@SportsInjuryPhysio Жыл бұрын

Yes, because these fractures are so slow to heal it can take a long time in the boot. You will have to ask the doctor who is in charge of your care about weightbearing. Try to think of it this way - is it not worth sticking out the discomfort for 3 months if it then means it is healed vs. trying to walk on it now and then messing it up and then it takes more than 3 months?

Thank you so much for this video. I’m almost certain this is what I have. I think i sustained the injury about a year ago playing tennis and suddenly jarring my foot when I stopped to change direction. It was acutely painful for 3 days, I got an X-ray and they said it wasn’t broken and sent me home. For a year now it’s been pain free in the morning but as the day progresses it gets worse and worse. I’ve seen a physio at my doctors surgery and I’m now going for another X-ray. If it turns out to be a navicular fracture, is it worth doing the conservative non-weight bearing treatment after a year or is it too late now? Can it still correct after all this time? Thank you

I think this is what I have. I've trained throughout winter. My body wasn't recovering well and I felt some arch pain. I decided it was time to take some rest. Took a couple weeks without running, few walks, but significantly reduced my activities. The foot pain continued but felt pretty minor. I'm on my feet most of the day at work. A few days ago I chose to do a proper mountain hike in hopes that I could start increasing activities and upping the heartrate this coming week. Came back from the hike unable to walk without a limp also noticed a lump near the ankle that I hadn't noticed before, is that a sign? The next day I got it checked out X-ray determined no fracture. Doctors said insurance wouldn't allow to have an MRI and X-Ray to be done within two weeks of each other. So they suspect a stress fracture and put me in a boot and I'm to go back in 2weeks. This sounds much more serious than what I thought and hoped. Hope your timeline is extra conservative if this is what is going on for me haha. Really just anxious for answers.

Hello! I have a question, so I think it’s been almost a month ever since I’ve been dealing with this pain, and I ran on it so much it was hard to walk and I would limp so then I rested for a little bit but then once I started running, it would start slowly progressively get worse in pain, so I’m done with track now and I went to the doctor and they said it was an overuse injury, and my foot was inflamed and a little swollen and I did get an x ray and they said they didn’t see anything, but I’m doing summer running for college and I took two weeks off and then I started running today again and that area in particular hurts, and I started icing this foot and I don’t know the stretches that would help but I’ve been doing stretches, but my foot would ache if putting a little pressure on it, and I’m just confused and also more for me it hurts on the top of the foot and I pressed on the part and it hurt, but the doctor said they didn’t see anything in the scans, so I’m confused

Xrays don't show stress fractures - you can only see them on MRI scans. And they often don't show on scans. Resting for 2 weeks is not enough - you have to be pain free walking and able to do loading exercises without pain and then slowly ease into running after.

Hi there, I was diagnosed with a navicular stress reaction and i was wondering if you could provide me with some information on the differences in treatment for a stress reaction versus a fracture? My doctor recommended that i rest without immobilization/non weight bearing for 6 weeks but its been 5 weeks and it seems marginally better but i don’t think i could return to lots of walking/hiking without pain anytime soon. Is it possible that the recovery time could also be up to 5 months for a stress reaction to this bone?

@SportsInjuryPhysio 7 ай бұрын

A stress reaction is what we call it before it forms an actual fracture. The recovery time is usually a bit quicker if you catch it in this stage although it also varies in severity. So, if you have quite a significant stress reaction then it can still take a few months - in my experience at least 12 weeks (3 months) but may be a bit longer

I’m 14 years old and I think I may have a stress fracture because on the top part of my foot. Its really painful when I try to stretch out my ankle and when I stretch out my big toe it gets worse. It gets worse after I get off of work and lay down. Its superrrrrr painful when I press down on the upper part of my foot towards my ankle . It’s also very painful when I try to go to sleep and makes me very uncomfortable and makes it hard to sleep. Would you suggest that I go get it checked out and would it probably be a stress fracture?

Hi Jason, it is definitely a good idea to have it checked out so that you can know for certain. It may not be a stress fracture - it could just be a tendonitis in the the tendons that run over the top of the foot.

Pain in that area can also be caused by issues with your foot arch or tibialis posterior tendon: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/p8mTaqpkxrrRc5s.html A podiatrist will be able to diagnose it for you.

After navicular surgery can I back to running?

@SportsInjuryPhysio 2 жыл бұрын

Yes, the whole idea of performing surgery for navicular stress fractures is to allow the person to get back to running and sport, but you have to complete a comprehensive rehab programme first.

My god. I have had this injury since 2011. Had surgery in 2019 and two screws put in. It was 3/4th of the way broken. The fractureline was so calcified and hard so the whole screwdriver overheated and scarred me. The surgery didn’t help. They should have done a bone graft in addition in my opinion. I can manage with it I cannot run painfree. I don’t wish this on anyone. My quality of life has gone from 10 to a 3.

@lo9273 Жыл бұрын

I should add that diagnosing this is extremely hard. I have been to over 10 different specialists and in 4 different countries. No-one picket it up from an Xray nor an MRI. They eventually found it through a gamma scan. I also don’t know why a CT scan wasn’t done in the early stages, that would have revieled it also.

Stress fractures (what this video is about) are different from traumatic fractures (what you have), so the advice in this video does not apply to your situation.
