Understanding Stress Fractures
Stress fractures are overuse injuries caused by repetitive loading of bones, distinct from traumatic fractures. Unlike traumatic fractures, stress fractures require more healing time due to widespread micro damage accumulating across a larger bone area. The mechanism involves repetitive loading causing micro damage, leading to prolonged return to sports. Factors like bone absorption, healing, and general health influence the recovery process.
