Our articles are not designed to replace medical advice. If you have an injury we recommend seeing a qualified health professional. To book an appointment with Tom Goom (AKA ‘The Running Physio’) visit our clinic page. We offer both in-person assessments and online consultations.
If there’s one injury most runners are keen to avoid it’s a stress fracture! They can mean a long period away from running and are notoriously easy to miss. Research has suggested that, on average, it takes around 3 months to diagnose a stress fracture.
