• Foot Pain

  We believe that in cases where cerebral palsy patients with paralytic equinus complain of foot pain, the possibility of stress fracture of the navicular bone should be considered. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  All patients reported heel pain on walking. Swelling and local heat were found in four and three patients, respectively. Pain was elicited by squeezing the calcaneus in all patients. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  Read More HEEL PAIN The most common form of heel pain, is pain on the bottom of the heel. It tends to occur for no apparent reason and is often worse when first placing weight on the foot. [podiatrynetwork.com]

  The symptoms of stress fractures of the heel might resemble the symptoms of a bruised heel. Pain will come and go and get worse with weight-bearing activity such as running or jumping. [epainassist.com]

Patients who have sacral stress fractures typically report pain that is vague and nonspecific, and the diagnostic workup is often extensive to rule out disk disease, sacroiliac joint dysfunction, and sacroiliitis. [chiro.org]

The optimal treatment modalities for navicular stress fractures in athletes is currently unknown for this season-ending injury. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Treatment is usually conservative and prognosis is favorable. We present a rare case of spontaneous displaced fracture of the entire ischium following revision THA that healed without requiring operative intervention. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Much attention has been given to the role of remodeling in the etiology of stress fracture; however, the role of bone modeling has received less attention. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

CONCLUSIONS: These data suggest an important role for SOST SNP rs1877632 and VDR SNPs rs10735810 and rs731236 in the pathophysiology of stress fracture. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Pathophysiology Bone normally responds to muscle pull (direction, intensity) or impact shock by deforming and then returning to normal shape ( 6 ). A complete cycle of bone turnover and remodeling and mineralization requires 3 to 4 months. [journals.lww.com]

Milner et al suggested that as a result of these differences, lower-extremity load distribution in members of the first group differed from that in the controls, increasing the former's likelihood of fractures. [8] Pathophysiology Bone, like muscle, is [emedicine.com]
