Could a hairline fracture need surgery?
Fractures come in many sizes and forms. At what angle the bone is affected, the strength of the impact, and how the bone shatters, all determine the kind of fracture one has. Hairline fractures or stress fractures are small cracks in the bone. They could also occur when a bone is bruised. They are usually caused by repetitive actions where the bone doesn’t have enough time to heal.

The feet and legs are especially prone to developing hairline fractures as they constantly absorb a lot of impacts. Athletes who do sports that involve running or jumping regularly are more at risk of developing hairline fractures. Hairline fractures though don’t just affect athletes. They could affect anyone.
