Myths About X-rays And Running Injuries

Every day I get calls from injured runners. Whether their foot is aching when they run and they think they have a stress fracture or if they twisted an ankle on a trail, the number one question I get is, “should I get an x-ray?” Whether or not you need an x-ray depends upon several things. But x-rays don’t always tell the whole story. And there’s also a widespread misconception that if an x-ray doesn’t show anything then you need an MRI or Ultrasound to figure out what is going on with your foot. Frankly there’s just a lot of misunderstanding about X-rays and running injuries. So in this episode we’re going to talk about all of the myths about x-rays and running injuries.
