  diagnosis

  and rehabilitation of stress fractures in the lower extremity in runners.

  stress fractures account for between 1% and 20% of athletic injuries

  with 80% of stress fractures in the lower extremity. stress fractures of the lower extremity are common injuries among individuals who participate in endurance

  high load-bearing activities such as running

  military and aerobic exercise and therefore require practitioner expertise in diagnosis and management. accurate diagnosis for stress fractures is dependent on the anatomical area. anatomical regions such as the pelvis

  sacrum

  and metatarsals offer challenges due to difficulty differentiating pathologies with common symptoms. special tests and treatment regimes

  however

  are similar among most stress fractures with resolution between 4 weeks to a year. the most difficult aspect of stress fracture treatment entails mitigating internal and external risk factors. practitioners should address ongoing risk factors to minimize recurrence.
