Thank you for posting this valuable information. Would you say it’s possible to have MTSS in addition to MTSF? In other words, your area of pain could be larger than 10cm indicating MTSS but also having an additional area of focal pain around 1-3cm? I find that when I rest, and my tib-post settles down, I still have this one small sore spot just below the inside of my tibia, about 3-4” up from my medial malleolus. Also how would we differentiate between MTSF and irritation/inflammation of the periosteum?
I had a MTSF it never really got 100 % better it was so bad I couldn't walk and at night I had to wear a birkenstock sandal in bed even the weight of the covers was too painful I still get swelling on my upper foot and sometimes pain after a long walk it's been 3 years I never had any treatment just a plain xray which confirmed it was this kind of fracture the ortho consultant said just leave it and it will get better on it's own but it really bothers me and I am reluctant to walk on it on bad days
this is the most helpful video about this topic
thank you sir 🙏
Fantastic video, one of the best I've watched on the topic
Is an MRI or CT scan better to identify a stress fracture?
Great video.
