Abstract des Autors
Adult recreational athletes, or `weekend warriors', are vulnerable to foot injuries such as Achilles tendon ruptures, plantar fasciitis, retrocalcaneal bursitis, midfoot tendinitis, metatarsal stress fractures, and interdigital neuroma. Physicians also need to be alert for less common injuries such as Jones fractures and tarsal navicular stress fractures because of the risk of delayed healing or nonunion. Many foot injuries can be treated conservatively, but some Achilles tendon ruptures, Jones fractures, and tarsal navicular stress fractures may require surgery. Verf.-Referat
