Hello John, Thank you very much for watching and for your generous comment. It is truly a shame that medical care costs so much, and yet one single RUclips video can fill in so many gaps left wide appointment by us doctors at doctor appointments. Glad you found the video helpful!
Probably only my 2nd or 3rd comment on youtube but here we go. I was inspired to do so because this video offered a much realer approach on handling a stress fracture than anything I’ve seen thus far. I’ve been dealing with bilateral tibial stress fractures for three years. Have IM nail rods in both legs. Have been doing all I can to optimize this healing process with nutrition/supplements/bone stimulators but I am young and it’s hard to be patient. It’s hard to not know if I’m doing the right things. I am an athlete and seeing each basketball season pass by one after the next while I deal with this is grueling. It’s really videos like these that help me stay sane and focused on what I can do everyday. So thank you!
Hello Ike, Thanks for sharing your story and comments. I can only imagine how tough it is to go for such a long time with tibial stress fractures. Keep focusing on what you can control...and keeping moving forward. You got this!
I believe I have a medial tibial stress fracture, haven’t consulted a doctor as I completely agree with the last minute of the video. My pain started a week ago, walking is fine and a very and I mean very slow jog is fine but at an increased pace it hurts like hell. I’m pretty sure it’s a stress fracture as it’s in a single spot. It’s a very odd injury, and just like many people I just can’t sit around and do nothing. Are other form of cardio such as cycling okay? One other thing does anyone seem to see the pain completely go away during the night??
@@uscgirl214 My heart goes out to you! Sounds like you need to find some of the exercises you can do that own't impede the healing of the stress fracture. What did your doctor tell you to do?
@@uscgirl214 tell me about it. It’s been almost 3 months since I got the injury and wrote this comment but I can pretty much say I’m fully recovered, however just like you I was going crazy at the fact that I literally couldn’t do anything. It was like that for a whole month, I didn’t even do any core or upper exercises because I was so depressed that I couldn’t run. It’s showing now as I’m struggling to get back to fitness. My only advice to you is don’t listen to false signals in your body because one month of not doing anything can prevent possibly months of injury. Also, try core and upper body workouts to try to maintain your fitness, but don’t put too much strain on your injury if you can. Good luck🤞
Had a 5cm longitudinal stress fracture in my left tibial in April and was in a boot for 6 weeks. I did about 6 weeks of PT after but then I started having ankle and foot pain in the same leg. I recently had another MRI which fortunately confirmed no stress fracture in shin, ankle or foot... unfortunately the pain persist and its keeping me from running... I am extremely frustrated.
I just came back from my training, I'm a boxer, I do lots of roadwork(10km run), jumping ropes for 45 minutes to an hour and an hour of calisthenics. Since two days ago, I felt like there's a small dent in the middle of my tibia bone. It's not really excruciating, but I just felt there's a slight pressure on it. I'm starting to worry that it's a stress fracture. And now I'm depressed I can't train anymore. 😭😭😭
same here bro i was in insane shape in the last 2 month running 5 km doing all my pyometrics and speed work technical work all the gym work training jumping rope for 30 minutes a day became 13% bf you name it but out of nowhere i get this injury
@@ziad1030 yo man its a year later how is it, I was training and best shape of my life also, training 3x a day and fractured my 3rd metatarsal , now 8 weeks in to recovery it doesnt hurt to walk on but feels really weak, almost like if i went back to boxing and i was to jump on that foot it would give way
How long did it take to heal ? I’m in a cast right now . 3 midfoot stress fractures. I feel really upset . I’m not used to laying in one spot I wanna get moving
Hi, I used to serve in the army, and now I dropped out with a stress fracture. My question is, is it normal to feel pain after a year since it happened? In a whole year, I didn't run, slept a lot, ate vitamins and etc., also did physiotherapy but still struggle a lot. Hope you can tell me what should I do.
I had phantom pain for a long time after mine had healed in my shin. I had to jog at a very slow pace (10’30” miles) for a few months before it went away completely
Doing something like running on a titled surface or putting a pad in the shoe to apply pressure somewhere else will likely cause a new injury somewhere else.
Thank you very much for this. I've suspect I've had mine for a while now and it keeps coming back after ANY impact activity (even high jumps etc) so it's turning into a long standing issue (along with some tingling in my toes too). I went to my doc and the physio there gave me a few exercises and sent me away. Should I be insisting on an MRI or ultrasound now? Also, does strapping help whilst running? Mine is not far above the ankle so figured I might be able to strap it.
Hi, I play football and in the last part of the season I start to notice a bit of pain in the foot. I tried to play with it, but after 1-2 weeks it became to annoying. It never hurt a lot but it was always a little pain there. Stopped playing order and my physiotherapist ordered me an MRI. In the scan they found: Stress reaction in the medial sesamoid under the head of the 1st metatarsal. I have now been 5 weeks out. I started to step up my training a little bit with cycling and some strength training like squat and stuff a week ago. After I started with that I’ve been scared to feel the same pain. When I train now I don’t feel anything, but when I rest I constantly thinking about my foot and I think I feel some kind of pain, discomfort or numbness. Is that normal or is that not good? All I think about is to get back to the field and play football. Hope to get an answer🙏🏼

Thanks for watching, and for your comments. No, I do not. Not that hip injuries aren't an important subject. But I specialize exclusively in foot and ankle injuries in runners.
I have a tibia stress fracture after running a marathon. I wish you were my doctor!!! you def. don't work at Kaiser! What exercise do you recommend to do while I recover? I know I can't run but I need to exercise. Besides cycling and swimming, can i do weights? or some type of workout???? Like you said, I am so scared of getting weak and hurt myself again once I start running

I gota metal rod placed in after a fracture I’m only good on tip toe when the pain comes in it’s invincible I never kno when it’s goin to act up I walk fine 2 miles now today I can’t walk 1 mile
Great question. It isn't static. HOW LONG all depends on what kind of fracture, how bad it is, what you do to alter the standard timelines and how healthy you remain through the process. All of the factors are modifiable and can and will alter your course of recovery to change that timeline.
I guess I’m off to the pool. I am too heavy a runner still. I can’t run and can barely jump rope as long as I’d like. My endurance is up but my body can’t handle it. I refuse to give up on this endurance and start from Zero a week or two later when it’s healed enough to try again. I will not give up, no matter how much inconvenient stuff happens. Never again.
Thank you for watching and I hope you found the video helpful. .I've done lots of videos explaining. The process of figuring that out is in the metatarsal stress fracture course for runners.

I've a stress fracture on my knee that's been healing for the past 6 weeks. If I walk for too long, it starts hurting again but not like when it first happened. Icing and resting helps. What can I do to build strength in my knee? Any exercises?
Thanks for watching and for you comments. I cannot recommend any treatment or exercises without understanding your condition, your history etc. What did your doctor recommend after diagnosing you?
This is why I don't really trust family practitioners, because they learn a little of everything. Not specialize in a few things or one single thing. Which makes there diagnoses very generalized. Leading to misdiagnoses and/or poor treatment advice. Thankfully there are some doctors out there that don't have an ego that will advise you to see a specialist on matters there not knowledgeable about.
Hey Doc, i was diagnosed with a tibial stress fracture on MRI 5 months ago and i was feeling pain on one spot 1/3 of my tibia. İt has been 8 weeks and i am not feeling any pain and sensitiveness on that spot any more, is it correct time to start non impact exercises like cycling or rowing? ( I am a triathlete and i did superior care in my healing process and did everything correct but i am afraid if it's come back. ) Greetings from Istanbul 👋
Hello Okan, Thanks for watching and for sharing your experience. 5 months certainly seems like a very long time and I can only imagine how frustrated you might be at this point without significant levels of exercise. Did you ask the doctor who made your diagnosis whether or not it was appropriate for you to start exercising now? Unfortunately, I as a physician cannot advise you on whether or not it is the correct time to start exercises of any variety because I have not evaluated your injury or spoken to you to get your full history. I would never make a critical decision based on a limited amount of information. I always do one hour consultations with athletes in situations like yours.

So I'm a distance runner, on April of 2022 I got a 4th metatarsal stress fracture. I was on the boot 3 months. X ray is showing some healing but not 100 percent. I've been walking but fear it'll open up again. Is pain and fear of putting full pressure without the boot normal? I want to run! It's frustrating
I had 5th metatarsal Jones fracture in my right foot on 5/11/2021. I approached orthopaedic doctor on 12/11/2021. He put my leg in raw plaster for 10 days first. Then afterwards put my leg in rigid slab plaster for 30 days. Now on 23/12/2021 my plaster is removed and after xray doctor told your fracture is healed 50% so you can walk normally on your foot and do your day to day duties and also join office. But after walking for some time I am getting swelling. Is it alright to walk normally without any support and without wearing any special orthopaedic shoes? By this my fracture will not get worst? My fracture will heal automatically with time during normal walking? Please guide me. Thanks a lot. 🙏🙏🙏 On coming Monday 3/1/2022 I have to join my office duty.
Hello Madhu, Thank you for watching, and for your comments. Swelling is never normal. I cannot offer any advice without understanding more about your injury. You can block my calendar for a one hour web-cam consultation here: www.docontherun.com/talk-to-the-expert/ Then we can discuss your situation in detail. I look forward to speaking with you!
Thanks for watching and for your reply. Just curious, what makes you think a "pain free" period is the only piece you need to factor, or the only one that you need to give you permission to run?
I got a healed stress fracture and returned to running and got into cross country and it started to flare up and hurt around the tibia again. Is this normal or should I be concerned?
I broke my first metatarsal, now on 3rd week after surgery, they put k-nails and now I can put partial weight on my foot(without pain), how much time will it take to walk after the k-nails removal? It's really tough to be patient being so young 😂

The heel bone is under the talus bone. The talus bone is under the tibia. If you land on the heels, how would that translate to no pressure on your tibia ?
@@DocOnTheRun I'm recovering from a stress fracture on my tibia and I'm hoping to reduce the pressure on it at least to be sure it heals well. Landing on my heel just feels like there's much less pressure being put on the front on my tibia.
@@Motorsportsgeek It may feel that way, but it seems like a gamble. Its just the force of gravity. There are other ways to decrease the pressure, however. You may want to check out this video: ruclips.net/video/0CWLzZf1J9M/видео.html I think it would help you, if I put it on...
thank you soo much for this video, i want to ask if i rest for 3 weeks complete bed rest ( i can afford as i m a cs student and its summer holidays going on) then can i walk to my collage and do daily norm1al task i dont do any physical training or running and my collage is about 1km away

Do you think treadmill at a 5% incline will take some stress off the tibia?
As compared to what? Depends on where in the tibia and which injury is bothering you. What did your doctor recommend?
Drop a turkey on it?
Can I just run on my heels so there's no pressure on my tibia
The heel bone is under the talus bone. The talus bone is under the tibia. If you land on the heels, how would that translate to no pressure on your tibia ?
@@DocOnTheRun I'm recovering from a stress fracture on my tibia and I'm hoping to reduce the pressure on it at least to be sure it heals well.
Landing on my heel just feels like there's much less pressure being put on the front on my tibia.
@@Motorsportsgeek It may feel that way, but it seems like a gamble. Its just the force of gravity. There are other ways to decrease the pressure, however. You may want to check out this video:

I ran 2 miles with one 🤦♂️
How did feel while you were running, later in the day after you ran, or the next day?
@@DocOnTheRun chin up, I raced 10miles with one
@@Alex.1739 Awesome! Congrats...How did the race go? What did it feel like during and after? And, how was your race time...better, worse or about what you expected?
@@DocOnTheRun no it was undiagnosed. Then swelled like balloon. Had mri and was ģrade 4. Havent run 4.5 months, not good
@@Alex.1739 No good indeed!
