The article presents a review of a study on the diagnosis and management of lower limb stress injuries based on the evidence from several clinical trials in Great Britain. It looks at the factors that contribute to the occurrence of stress injuries in field sports athletes, gymnasts, and military recruits. It explores the diagnosis in people with risk factors for bone injury and progressive localised bone pain, the imaging modality for stress fractures diagnosis, and the primary care management of low risk fractures. It also suggests that intervention of fracture specialists is necessary for high risk fractures and operative fixation.
