I was on a call with a patient who was a professional Ironman triathlete. He had a tibial sesamoid stress fracture.

The sesamoid bones are little bones underneath your big toe joint. They are kind of like tiny little kneecaps that you stand on. And when you are trying to heal one, AND maintain your fitness, it can be a real challenge. But a couple of little tricks can help.

How does taping a tibial sesamoid stress fracture actually help you heal when you are an injured runner? 

Well, that is what we're talking about today on the Doc On The Run Podcast.
