Hairline fractures are common among athletes and sportspersons. These stress fractures or tiny cracks occur in the bones of feet and legs. Repetitive stress on these bones for prolonged periods causes hairline fractures. Low nutrients, improper equipment, weak bones, etc., add to the risk factors. There is pain and swelling with or without a bruise. Pain increases with activity and decreases upon rest. Rest, ice pack, compression, and foot elevation can help. Painkillers to reduce pain and plaster casts for immobilization sufficiently treat the condition.
