“I wish it was just a stress fracture”
No, you probably don’t.
Stress fractures can often expose
-unhealthy relationships with exercise
-eating disorders/disordered eating
-poor training
-other health issues compromising bone health
If you aren’t ready to address those, a stress fracture is not what you want as you are very likely to have more to come.
While I have only had one stress reaction, I have had far too any other injuries. A recurring injury cycle is not fun or something I wish on anyone.
