From a guy who sustained four MT stress fractures in my 20s (rugby pre-season training on hard ground)... this is such a great video! Thanks for taking the time to share the info :) You're pumping out the videos at the moment. Keep up the great work!
Ok So I was literally in the middle of a run, and my foot started having sharp pain. Could barely walk, and had to limp home. Had bruising on the top of my foot around 2 & 3. Bruising is gone, still slightly swollen after a week, still feel pain. I have always been running though so this isnt a too much too soon thing. Do I have a stress fracture, or did i just break a blood vessel, and have exterior tendonitis or whatever its called?
Your videos are extremely helpful, easy to understand, and educational. Thank you! This really helped me figure out what most likely my issue is and who to see!
Thanks for the great response! If possible, we would appreciate a quick & easy rating from you, and a good rating makes a BIG difference for us! g.page/r/CaxJ9b-O6o27EAg/review Thanks again for watching!
My CT scan showed a chip fracture on the "superior anterior part of the medial cuneiform", which I think is somewhere near the bump on the top of the foot near the first big toe. It does not show on the Xray, only on CT scan. The Doc said that when my foot is in a cast, the chip fracture would heal and re-fuse with the main foot's bone, so no intervention is needed. I don't quite understand, if a chip has broken off how can it find its way back to the proper position on the foot?
It hurts my by 5th metatarsal and I try rolling pin exercises and everytime it hits the arch of my foot by that 5th metatarsal it pops every single time and it hurts real bad
Hello sir , I have pain in my toenail skin and big toenail bone since from one year 3 times doctor pull out the nail but the pain is still same in the night and morning too much even in walking much pain please help me to solve this big issue

Great advice really appreciate it; I love walking and have had reoccurring stress fractures in both feet over the years; finally found out that(for me) wearing a firm back support while walking improved my gait; and I have not incurred any new stress fractures in the last 8 years thank you I love how you marked locations on the outside of your foot for easy comparisons with locations on the X-ray so helpful; thank you so much!
I wear an elastic back support with velcro closures (ordered on Amazon) that fits snug around my waist/ hips and feel that it improves my gait when walking. I wear Nikes, miler react sneakers that have great support.
I got some pain at the top of my right foot, but only when running. Tried that test at 6:13, felt no pain. Hopefully this isn't stress fracture, but i'm gonna rest from running for a few weeks to be on the safe side and just go cycling.
Thanks Your video is helpful. Fracture 3rd metatarsal from 2months of at home training and running at home with no shoes stupid me. Had the a bit of pain but didn't find out till 4 weeks later that it was stress fracture. Got air boot but still had weight on and on second week of boots pain kept coming. 2 weeks ago finally got fibreglass cast put on and for 4 weeks now I've been in severe pain. Throbbing, burning, sharp, pins and noddles, electric shocks, strapping pain. But at night its more worst. Is that what people go through with stress fracture? I'm wondering cause I'm really struggling with this. its horrible and sucks
Love all your videos ! You go into detail and really help self diagnose . It’s the top of my foot I did self diagnose , can’t afford to take off work at all ;(. Doing nursing, I wear the dansko 2.0 for 8 hours . Do you think those are good or switch ?
Great explanation and unfortunately I think I have a stress fracture on my 5th metatarsal. Great suggestions with the cycling and swimming, I was surprised to rediscover cycling was actually stressing the knees a bit but sparing the foot!

@@DrTomBiernacki ok thanks, sadly I’m in Australia, and it also just started last Monday, at work I didn’t do anything to it, and it’s just kept getting worse
Very good video! I had hard custom orthotics made to replace old ones...they came back with very high arches...and had stress fractures on both feet...one after the other! Doc poo-pooed that idea but I found a discussion about this!! It happens! Boot then regular shoes, about 6 weeks to heal. Made a higher level shoe for the other foot to help keep my body aligned. Used a wheelchair with elevator attachment to get around house and speed healing! Recently, having a bout of tendon issues top of the foot...no evidence of bleeding but sore tissues in between 3 and 4 as well some swelling top of the foot. Put a boot on but pain continues...with fracture the boot relieved pain instantly unlime this issue.

Great video. Practical to understand and applicable. Thanks for taking the time to put this together! Is it generally a good idea to up calcium intake when recovering from a stress fracture?
Please help me!! When i do this exercise i don’t feel any pain, and when i jump on my foot i don’t feel any pain. when i run about 6 meters my foot starts hurting on the top in the 3, 4, 5 area. i can feel the pain 30-60 minutes after then it stops. i just finished resting my leg because i had a tibia stress fracture, so i didn’t put any excessive force on it. About 2 weeks ago i ran about 12 meters barefoot on concrete. Directly after i stopped running i realized the top of my foot hurt, so i was walking on it weird for about 2 days. Now every-time i jog a short distance it starts hurting! I’m not sure if it’s just a strain or it’s a fracture. Do you have any ideas of what this could possibly be?
Hey so I just got a stress fracture in the middle of my foot and Im in the marine corps with a 20k hike coming up with about 120 lbs any suggestions on how to get through it?
Hello Dr, my stress fracture keeps refracturing. I have had micro-fracture surgery where a blood clot is made and I had a surgery where I got a plate and also my toe shortened and a staple. It is still re-fracturing. What do I do? It is on the first metatarsal
Thanks so much for this. I do roller derby and the top of my foot hurts really bad and ive just been waiting for it to heal. But it will start hurting just from me walking to the bathroom to shower, after it had been fine for awhile. I just wanna do whatever i can do heal this as fast as possible. So again, thank you. Also. Michigan represent

Hey i got always metatarsal fracture( 2) because of prolonged running or walking and my foot has very flexible arch ,I am a martial arts practitioner ,what I can do to avoid this
As I have taken ct scan of my foot I met with an accident the report is comminuted displaced fracture base is of forth metatarsal is seen,linear un displaced fracture of base of second metatarsal is seen means I wanted to know is anything serious
I stepped a rusty nail it hit at the center of my third and fourth toe at the hollow portion there, i was already injected anti tetanus,,after 2-3 weeks the wound was heald and i thought it was totaly heald after wearing a shoes when i took off the shoes i felt something is burning my foot, after days the upper part of my foot near the heald wound was swelling and red and it became bigger until it burst and form another wound.. I have already look local doctors and have even checked my blood sugar and they said my blood sugar is ok..they gave antibiotics but the wound wont heal and i have finishd the antibiotics still not working until i stopped drinking medicine,,after 2-3 months the wound slowly heald..but now why is it near the scars of the wound is swelling again and its getting red and bigger again..im so disperate what is the cause of swelling again..?..pleassss help me...
Trying to figure out what is wrong with my foot. My podiatrist doesn’t know he ordered an MRI . My pain is above the 2-3 metatarsals closer to the ankle. I’m wearing a boot now but my pain with out it is 8-9 when I walk on it. X rays didn’t show any fractures. But oh the pain! I used to walk 3-4 miles every day. My shoe was causing me to supinate, so I threw them out and bought Brooks shoes.
thanks, for the vid guide...most informative and easy to follow I've seen. I've been struggling with dorsal foot pain, and didn't know what to do, went to a doctor and that was a waste of time...double thumbs up too you!

My left foot´s metatarsal 5 gets inflammed every month for no apparent reason.. must be stress fracture due overweight Im (196/120 kg) Normally I take NSAID´s.
Yeah funny story yesterday I was at soccer and it was a game but then like 3 minutes before halftime I missed the ball fell and when we went to the doctor my side of the foot which I forgot the name but it was fractured and I cant play soccer the rest of the season
Started hiking and tripped and sprained my ankle. 8 MONTHS ago. Two doctors later they have finally ordered an MRI. No breaks in x ray. My 5th metatarsal is agony! Much worse as the day progresses. I’ve been going to two orthopedic surgeons. Thinking I should go to a podiatrist.

Last night while playing soccer i tried ro shoot the ball but suddenly another player came infront of me and i hit his feet,it was a little painful but now it is swollen and very painful. Do you think i broke my foot ?!
Nobody talks about just plain tissue bruises, when its in top of foot it can be super unsettling. Someone stepped on my foot and it sucks terribly. Gotta avoid doc sometimes because sometimes all they do is barely handle you and send you home.
I've had pain in my 2nd mt for 6 months now. I'm an electrician so I have to be on my feet all day. It doesn't hurt during the day, but I haven't been able to run like I want to and its my physical gains have suffered. I'm hoping I can get a doctors visit, but I don't have insurance.

I'm confused I don't get pain on top of my foot I have a aching pain under my foot what could it be? I had to rest almost 2 months because my foot hurt alot before it hurts a lil now that I started running maybe its normal? Or could it be my shoes?

Thanks for all of the videos. I believe I have a stress fracture in the second metatarsal. I was unable to move my foot at all for two weeks. After, I was placed in a boot for a few days, I was then able to move my foot. The pain is constant and was at a 10 and now at a 5 but is constant. I had an x-ray and nerve test that did not show anything. My pediatrist does not know what the issue is and stated it may be my back. I have had no back issues. This issue is now into the fourth week. Any suggestions? Thanks!
Wow, we appreciate the kind words and your watching. Trust your current doctor, generally for us 4 weeks can still be fairly early, a good supportive shoe and orthotic is something that we see that can help.

If I am not mistaken, I experiencing now what's you called jones fracture. I landed my foot badly and all of my body weight just went down there. The results are swollen and pain in my lower pinky bones. I'm still walk but slowly.
Doctor my wife had a burning injury 3ys ago and she still complaining a lot about pain. Taking strong medicines that have not been helping in order to heal, only to drug her. I’ve watching your videos and trying to help my wife. Do you know any good foot doctor in Orlando area? Tks and God Bless you!
Afyer seeing this video O think I hav e jones fracture Dr didnt realyy name it he jist showed me my x raybwith a tiny hairline crack. Hope when i go back in 2 days it shows healin!
I have pain in that area. It feels really sore. The soreness goes down to the bottom of the foot. I feel like in the top part, sometimes when I’m walking it feels like it’s going down catch.
I fell down last week .i thought it's just swelling because i don't feel that much pain and i took x ray and it showed there was no fracture.but it's increasing pain now .i can't walk properly . which means is it fracture ?.I'm sure it is😭😭😭😭😭
This week I had a cranky foot like as if I had to crack a knuckle , today I saved myself from tripping but landed on that foot. A huge crack feeling across the middle of foot. Continued with my gardening seemed to ease after a while but later the outside of my foot is very tender. Do I wrap it?
4 days ago I couldn’t walk on my left foot I had really bad tendinitis so I game myself a betametazone shot and went away , today my right foot started so I can’t walk on that one I get flair ups about 4 times a year I don’t know what to do I need a really good foot dr that can get to the bottom of this
i fell down a few stairs and landed right on my ankle and side of foot originally an x ray showed i didn’t have any broken bones but i was placed in a boot for possible partial ligament tearing in the ankle area. but it’s been over and week and i still can’t walk without the boot. when i press on the fourth and fifth toe area on my foot it hurts a lot and i still have bruising in that area. is that common with ankle injuries or is it possible i fractured my foot in the fourth and fifth metatarsal area as well? should i request an mri at my follow appt to rule out a fracture?
Ankle/foot injuries of any type typically take over a month to heal or longer whether or not it's a tissue damage or bone fracture. It could be much longer. I dont know personally about your story but hope this helps
I was told I have a hair line fracture in the side of my foot almost 6 weeks ago . I have been wearing a boot for 5 weeks and it still hurts . After week 4 the doc said we would try to wean off of it over an 8 day time period. 1 hour off in the morning and 1 hour in the afternoon day 1 and 2 hours morning anf 2 hours afternoon , and day 3 three hours morning and afternoon until i get to day 8 and then no boot. I got to day 4 and it started hurting , and they told me to wear it 2 more weeks . If I start this wean off again and it starts hurting , what do i do ? I am done with this boot . thanks
My left leg fractured of fourth metatarsal two weeks ago ,and covered with plaster in the hospital,bt now have pain then how many weeks to get redy the bone fracture

Hi Doctor . I am out in Bali where there are no foot doctors . I’ve just had an MRI scan but am waiting for it to be translated into English . I know this is a tall order but could I send it to you to have a quick look . I’ve seen an orthopedic doctor but to be honest am not confident . I’m a nurse myself . Thank you Roisin
Interesting. My toe has the pain. I don’t know if it’s a fracture or splinter. All I know is I got up and it felt like a knife went through the toe. That’s how bad the pain was. When I walk, something moves. I can’t find a doctor to pinpoint what’s wrong. It’s been 2 years now.
When I got up, my right feet went numb. I took a step forward and my half front area of the feet literally folded downwards/inwards. I hear a sound. N now my feet is swollen and paining near the 5th metatarsal area. So , is it fracture or something related to tendon? Plz tell. I can't walk.😭
Hello I jus want to ask a question I think I have broke my big toe then in that part it hurts then what should I do to cure it and stop the pain. :( it's really hurting so much I have broke it Today.
Three metatarsal stress fractures in two years and the second metatarsal fracture is a non-union after ORIF. Also have a failed navicularcuneiform fusion, hardware removed two weeks ago because it was broken and loose and causing pain.

Super helpful, thanks Doc!
My fourth toe just below the head is very sore to touch, could that be a stress fracture?

Recently, having a bout of tendon issues top of the foot...no evidence of bleeding but sore tissues in between 3 and 4 as well some swelling top of the foot. Put a boot on but pain continues...with fracture the boot relieved pain instantly unlime this issue.

Great video. Practical to understand and applicable. Thanks for taking the time to put this together! Is it generally a good idea to up calcium intake when recovering from a stress fracture?
In some cases, studies show the most important one might be vitamin D. Always check with a doctor first though!
Thanks for the kind words!

Me on my foot:👉👆👇👈👇
Please help me!! When i do this exercise i don’t feel any pain, and when i jump on my foot i don’t feel any pain. when i run about 6 meters my foot starts hurting on the top in the 3, 4, 5 area. i can feel the pain 30-60 minutes after then it stops. i just finished resting my leg because i had a tibia stress fracture, so i didn’t put any excessive force on it. About 2 weeks ago i ran about 12 meters barefoot on concrete. Directly after i stopped running i realized the top of my foot hurt, so i was walking on it weird for about 2 days. Now every-time i jog a short distance it starts hurting! I’m not sure if it’s just a strain or it’s a fracture. Do you have any ideas of what this could possibly be?
Hey so I just got a stress fracture in the middle of my foot and Im in the marine corps with a 20k hike coming up with about 120 lbs any suggestions on how to get through it?
Please discuss BONE MARROW EDEMA and the cracking feeling and sound of bones
Hello Dr, my stress fracture keeps refracturing. I have had micro-fracture surgery where a blood clot is made and I had a surgery where I got a plate and also my toe shortened and a staple. It is still re-fracturing. What do I do? It is on the first metatarsal
Thanks so much for this. I do roller derby and the top of my foot hurts really bad and ive just been waiting for it to heal. But it will start hurting just from me walking to the bathroom to shower, after it had been fine for awhile. I just wanna do whatever i can do heal this as fast as possible. So again, thank you. Also. Michigan represent

Hey i got always metatarsal fracture( 2) because of prolonged running or walking and my foot has very flexible arch ,I am a martial arts practitioner ,what I can do to avoid this
We always find good shoes, good supportive insoles and finding/correcting tightness as the keys for athletes!
Thanku
Can this happem from rapid weight gain, I quit smoking and packed on a hell of a lot of weight and ever since the tops of my feet hurt like crazy
As I have taken ct scan of my foot I met with an accident the report is comminuted displaced fracture base is of forth metatarsal is seen,linear un displaced fracture of base of second metatarsal is seen means I wanted to know is anything serious
I stepped a rusty nail it hit at the center of my third and fourth toe at the hollow portion there, i was already injected anti tetanus,,after 2-3 weeks the wound was heald and i thought it was totaly heald after wearing a shoes when i took off the shoes i felt something is burning my foot, after days the upper part of my foot near the heald wound was swelling and red and it became bigger until it burst and form another wound..
I have already look local doctors and have even checked my blood sugar and they said my blood sugar is ok..they gave antibiotics but the wound wont heal and i have finishd the antibiotics still not working until i stopped drinking medicine,,after 2-3 months the wound slowly heald..but now why is it near the scars of the wound is swelling again and its getting red and bigger again..im so disperate what is the cause of swelling again..?..pleassss help me...
Trying to figure out what is wrong with my foot. My podiatrist doesn’t know he ordered an MRI .
My pain is above the 2-3 metatarsals closer to the ankle. I’m wearing a boot now but my pain with out it is 8-9 when I walk on it. X rays didn’t show any fractures. But oh the pain! I used to walk 3-4 miles every day. My shoe was causing me to supinate, so I threw them out and bought Brooks shoes.
thanks, for the vid guide...most informative and easy to follow I've seen. I've been struggling with dorsal foot pain, and didn't know what to do, went to a doctor and that was a waste of time...double thumbs up too you!

My left foot´s metatarsal 5 gets inflammed every month for no apparent reason.. must be stress fracture due overweight Im (196/120 kg) Normally I take NSAID´s.
Yeah funny story yesterday I was at soccer and it was a game but then like 3 minutes before halftime I missed the ball fell and when we went to the doctor my side of the foot which I forgot the name but it was fractured and I cant play soccer the rest of the season
Started hiking and tripped and sprained my ankle. 8 MONTHS ago. Two doctors later they have finally ordered an MRI. No breaks in x ray. My 5th metatarsal is agony! Much worse as the day progresses. I’ve been going to two orthopedic surgeons. Thinking I should go to a podiatrist.
@victoriagoddard4617
Ouch, that is tough for sure! We really hope you feel better soon. Just make sure to see a podiatrist in near future if your problem continues.

Last night while playing soccer i tried ro shoot the ball but suddenly another player came infront of me and i hit his feet,it was a little painful but now it is swollen and very painful. Do you think i broke my foot ?!
Always get an x-ray and get evaluated if worried sorry that is always the best answer!
Nobody talks about just plain tissue bruises, when its in top of foot it can be super unsettling. Someone stepped on my foot and it sucks terribly. Gotta avoid doc sometimes because sometimes all they do is barely handle you and send you home.
I've had pain in my 2nd mt for 6 months now. I'm an electrician so I have to be on my feet all day. It doesn't hurt during the day, but I haven't been able to run like I want to and its my physical gains have suffered. I'm hoping I can get a doctors visit, but I don't have insurance.
I had stress fractures on both my feet after I went through the crucible and hiked the reaper

I'm confused I don't get pain on top of my foot I have a aching pain under my foot what could it be?
I had to rest almost 2 months because my foot hurt alot before it hurts a lil now that I started running maybe its normal?
Or could it be my shoes?
We know you want a more detailed response, and believe us if allowed we would love to give more specific information.
Unfortunately we have to let you know how important it is to see your podiatrist in person to get a more detailed response.
There are just so many variables and risks for giving information without a proper physical exam in person.
Good luck and we hope you feel better soon. We really appreciate you as a fan.

Been getting pain on my first metatarsal already 2 months after a volleyball match
It hurts a little only when am out the bed or couch
He draws all over himself so we can learn. Good dude!!
Thanks for all of the videos. I believe I have a stress fracture in the second metatarsal. I was unable to move my foot at all for two weeks. After, I was placed in a boot for a few days, I was then able to move my foot. The pain is constant and was at a 10 and now at a 5 but is constant. I had an x-ray and nerve test that did not show anything. My pediatrist does not know what the issue is and stated it may be my back. I have had no back issues. This issue is now into the fourth week. Any suggestions? Thanks!
Wow, we appreciate the kind words and your watching. Trust your current doctor, generally for us 4 weeks can still be fairly early, a good supportive shoe and orthotic is something that we see that can help.

If I am not mistaken, I experiencing now what's you called jones fracture. I landed my foot badly and all of my body weight just went down there. The results are swollen and pain in my lower pinky bones. I'm still walk but slowly.
Doctor my wife had a burning injury 3ys ago and she still complaining a lot about pain. Taking strong medicines that have not been helping in order to heal, only to drug her. I’ve watching your videos and trying to help my wife. Do you know any good foot doctor in Orlando area? Tks and God Bless you!
Afyer seeing this video O think I hav e jones fracture
Dr didnt realyy name it he jist showed me my x raybwith a tiny hairline crack. Hope when i go back in 2 days it shows healin!
I have pain in that area. It feels really sore. The soreness goes down to the bottom of the foot. I feel like in the top part, sometimes when I’m walking it feels like it’s going down catch.
My goodness… those feet look like mine!
my pain is within 3&4, and sometimes I find it hard to stand from long time sitting or laying
ruclips.net/video/tqOzHZ8rUqs/видео.html This video might help!
What if the peroneus brevis pops with no pain , standing on tip toe to walk up steps? as if I cracked a knuckle
Low on drinking milk I was guessing.
Scintigraphy gives also very good visual confirmation of the stress fracture of a foot even by the first sympthoms :-)
I fell down last week .i thought it's just swelling because i don't feel that much pain and i took x ray and it showed there was no fracture.but it's increasing pain now .i can't walk properly . which means is it fracture ?.I'm sure it is😭😭😭😭😭
This week I had a cranky foot like as if I had to crack a knuckle , today I saved myself from tripping but landed on that foot. A huge crack feeling across the middle of foot. Continued with my gardening seemed to ease after a while but later the outside of my foot is very tender. Do I wrap it?
I got the same fracture(fifth)like Neymar..now can I heal it?
How are you now
4 days ago I couldn’t walk on my left foot I had really bad tendinitis so I game myself a betametazone shot and went away , today my right foot started so I can’t walk on that one I get flair ups about 4 times a year I don’t know what to do I need a really good foot dr that can get to the bottom of this
Belleza de pies 🦶
I have lots of pain on my right feet top second finger
The 2nd metatarsal is the most common site of stress fracture.
ruclips.net/video/E2Pr3vocIB8/видео.html 2nd toe pain can be very common
I live in Alaska and if I dont take vitamin D in winter I get more lethargic than usual.
Very helpful video. You have amazing videos that help.

My midddle foot hurt doctor help plsssss I can't walk my other foot 😭😭
i fell down a few stairs and landed right on my ankle and side of foot originally an x ray showed i didn’t have any broken bones but i was placed in a boot for possible partial ligament tearing in the ankle area. but it’s been over and week and i still can’t walk without the boot. when i press on the fourth and fifth toe area on my foot it hurts a lot and i still have bruising in that area. is that common with ankle injuries or is it possible i fractured my foot in the fourth and fifth metatarsal area as well? should i request an mri at my follow appt to rule out a fracture?
Ankle/foot injuries of any type typically take over a month to heal or longer whether or not it's a tissue damage or bone fracture. It could be much longer. I dont know personally about your story but hope this helps
@@mckell38 it’s been over 6 weeks and i’m still in boot and in physical therapy. still worried there’s something else wrong.
I have a virus ulcer 8 mounths not healing I visit 10 best doctors in this country Trinidad please recomen any over the counter dtug
Fifth metatarsal hair line fracture
Me, waiting on X-rays, chuckles... (I'm in danger)
I was told I have a hair line fracture in the side of my foot almost 6 weeks ago . I have been wearing a boot for 5 weeks and it still hurts . After week 4 the doc said we would try to wean off of it over an 8 day time period. 1 hour off in the morning and 1 hour in the afternoon day 1 and 2 hours morning anf 2 hours afternoon , and day 3 three hours morning and afternoon until i get to day 8 and then no boot. I got to day 4 and it started hurting , and they told me to wear it 2 more weeks . If I start this wean off again and it starts hurting , what do i do ? I am done with this boot . thanks

Hi Doctor . I am out in Bali where there are no foot doctors . I’ve just had an MRI scan but am waiting for it to be translated into English . I know this is a tall order but could I send it to you to have a quick look . I’ve seen an orthopedic doctor but to be honest am not confident . I’m a nurse myself . Thank you Roisin
My docter says you have stress fracture but my both legs were swollow above d knee and hip if i work hard
I just cracked the tiba bone right over the total tibia
Does those usually need surgery?
Stop wearing shoes that constrict your feet and shoes that have wedges in the soles
Interesting. My toe has the pain. I don’t know if it’s a fracture or splinter. All I know is I got up and it felt like a knife went through the toe. That’s how bad the pain was. When I walk, something moves. I can’t find a doctor to pinpoint what’s wrong. It’s been 2 years now.
I think I finally figure out why my feets been hurting….
Thanks Doc!
When I got up, my right feet went numb. I took a step forward and my half front area of the feet literally folded downwards/inwards. I hear a sound. N now my feet is swollen and paining near the 5th metatarsal area.
So , is it fracture or something related to tendon? Plz tell. I can't walk.😭
Hello I jus want to ask a question
I think I have broke my big toe then in that part it hurts then what should I do to cure it and stop the pain. :( it's really hurting so much I have broke it
Today.
Watching this with the fracture on the base of 3 rd metatarsal 😢
Three metatarsal stress fractures in two years and the second metatarsal fracture is a non-union after ORIF. Also have a failed navicularcuneiform fusion, hardware removed two weeks ago because it was broken and loose and causing pain.
excellent video… you obviously love your job and florida 😂
I could do cycling with a second, 3rd and 4th metatarsal fracture?
