Proof you do not have to stop running with metatarsal stress response
About this episode
Is there any proof that you don't have to stop running when you get a metatarsal stress response in your foot? A lot of doctors and patients are really confused about the differences between a stress fracture and a stress reaction and a stress response in runners. A stress response is a normal physiologic response when you stress any tissue as a component of training. The goal of your running workout is to stress the tissue, get it, to react, and rebuild in a way that makes it stronger. Today on the Doc On The Run Podcast, we're talking about the evidence you really don't have to stop training when you're a runner who gets a metatarsal stress response.
