Recently I was asked about stress fractures and how to avoid these injuries. There are multiple things you can do to avoid these injuries and over the next few days I'll be outlining some of the steps to take to avoid stress fractures.
First of all there are certain sports which are more prone to stress fractures. Even if you don't play these sports, think about what activities you do that are similar and that may put you at greater risk to develop stress fractures.
If you regularly run or play sports on hard surfaces such as asphalt, you are at greater risk to develop a stress fracture. Certain activities and sports such as runners, dancers, gymnasts, tennis players and basketball players are at greater risk.
Tune in tomorrow for how to help decrease this risk.
