Eli Manning Stress Reaction

Well it looks like Eli Manning suffered another setback with his Plantar Fasciits. Apparently he must have been compensating too much from the condition and has developed a stress reaction to the cuboid bone in his foot. Now what is a stress reaction? A stress reaction is changes that is occurring within the bone. Could be from overuse or trauma. What is important is that if left untreated, this can lead to a stress fracture in the foot. A stress fracture in the foot, and depending on the bone in the foot, can definitely put an end to a season. And with not that many weeks left in the season, it can end his. Treatment for both is to stay off the foot and offload it. This again can be done via a Camboot, cast, ice, rest, and crutches. He also has shoe gear modification as well. Will keep you posted on his progress.
