Is it dangerous to run on a stress fracture? Stress fractures are one of the most common problems runners get when over training. When injured, stress fractures can keep you off running for a really long time. 


Runners are often running on stress fractures. Sometimes knowingly, sometimes unknowingly. You have to figure out whether or not you're going to cause any permanent damage to the bone, or disrupt your long-term goals, before you can decide whether or not it's dangerous to run on a stress fracture.
