What Are the Symptoms of a Stress Fracture?
The symptoms of stress fractures may resemble other conditions and medical problems. Always consult your physician for a diagnosis.
Stress Fracture Symptoms
A stress fracture may not cause swelling. However, each individual may experience symptoms differently. Symptoms may include:
- Pain in the front of the foot, often after long or intense bouts of exercise.
- Pain that disappears after exercise, then returns when you continue the exercise
Diagnosing Stress Fractures
If you experience pain in your foot, especially if it appears during exercise, see your doctor for a diagnosis. Learn more about stress fracture diagnosis at Stanford.
