Question: What are the symptoms of a stress fracture in the foot.?
Answers:
you can have swelling but you may not depending on where it is. If you have a fracture in your talus or calcaneus, it is really important that you do everything that you are told to do because it can take a long time to get healthy again. If you are wondering if you have a fracture, take a massager, and put it over the area and see if it creates more pain in your bone. the right item to use is a tuning fork but the idea is that the waves will create irritation where the fracture is. If you do have one they will put you into a boot for about 8 weeks. For now rest, ice, wrap it when not icing with an ace bandage and elevate.Health Question & Answer
Pain with weight bearing, walking or standing, potentially swelling of the foot. I had a stress fracture when I was 7 months pregnant with my 3rd child. I was told it would take about 8 weeks for it to heal, which was my due date. I had to wear a special shoe on my foot which had a very stiff sole, or my Birkenstocks. My foot stopped hurting 4 days before my son arrived. Fortunately, I haven't had another fracture since.
Get an x-ray just to make sure. It might show up on x-ray, but not always.
