Cuboid stress fracture vs. Capsoluloligamentous strain associated with cavus foot. How can a runner tell the difference?

If you have this pain on the outside of your foot near the cuboid bone, you might start worrying you have a cuboid stress fracture. Cuboid stress fractures are rare.    In fact, cuboid stress fractures account for  less than 1% of all the stress fractures that happen in the foot in athletes.  But there is something more common that can feel like a cuboid stress fracture.    Doctors call it "capsuloligamentous strain."   How can a runner tell the difference between a cuboid stress fracture and this thing called capsuloligamentous strain?    Well, that's what we're talking about today on the Doc on the Run podcast.
