#214 Will I run again after broken metatarsal surgery - a podcast by Dr. Christopher Segler

If you run and ignore that aching pain in your foot it could be a metatarsal stress fracture.

If you're strong as an ox and half as smart and you keep running, and ignore the pain, you could actually break the metatarsal bone.

If the broken metatarsal bone moves out of position your doctor may recommend surgery to put the bone back in its proper position and stabilize it with pins, plates and screws.

The big question is whether or not you should be able to run after you heal.

Today on the Doc on the Run podcast, we're talking about whether or not you're going to be able to run again after broken metatarsal surgery.
