When injured, a diagnosis can help calm down the anxieties and confusion about recovery, but is getting medical scans always the answer?\nWe dive into the protocols and presentations that may indicate getting a scan and the precautions one must consider.\nLastly, Paul talks about the myths and misconceptions about bone stress injuries and the general consensus on stress fracture management. \nCheck out Paul's website and books here PainScience.com\nFollow follow Paul on twitter\n Become a patron!\nReceive Run Smarter Emails\nBook a FREE Injury chat with Brodie\nRun Smarter App IOS or Android \nPodcast Facebook group\nRun Smarter Course\nwith code 'PODCAST' for 3-day free trial.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/yu6CIQL0sKEEn32UMHvSGj80p9Ns_xcjLGp-EWyJlqQ/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzM5ODgwLzE2Nzkw/MTQzMTYtYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
