2 questions that prove your stress fracture grading is useless
About this episode
One of the most useless obsessions I witness in runners is to focus on the grade a doctor uses to label the stress fracture.
You should care if you can run, you should care if you can work out, you should care if you have to sit around in a fracture walking boot and do nothing.
Most of the time runners call me and they are trying to get an answer from me on what they can do, I know their stress fracture grading is useless.
The reason for that is because I just asked two questions based on it and if you ask your doctor these same two questions, it will help you figure out whether or not you can start working out sooner.
Today on the Doc On The Run podcast, we're talking about two questions that prove to me your stress fracture grading is useless.
