Stress fracture symptoms

Symptoms of a stress fracture will include tenderness and pain in the area of the fracture. Often this will be noticed after a long and intense workout. Once the exercise has stopped the pain may disappear within seconds only to return when the workout begins again. In this case the pain will last longer after the workout is stopped.

Localized pain on the bone
Pain when pressure is applied directly over the fracture and the area immediately around it
Pain when putting stress on the affected area
Swelling and warmth at the site of the injury
