Cause #7: Stress Fractures
Stress fractures are cracks in the bone. They tend to occur in people who frequently work their bodies to the max and over-exert themselves. By placing too much stress, or pressure, on an area, the bones can become overstressed and become cracked or damaged.
People who engage in high-intensity or full-contact sports are much more likely to develop stress fractures.
