How long does it take for tibial plataue stress fracture to heal? It went nearly all the way across when they found it in May and in September it was still fairly significant though the edema was gone and some healing has occurred. I'm so tired of crutches. I need a win soon. Feeling pretty discouraged. I am almost to year 7 of my injury and I'm worn out. There's always something new happening and I can't seem to catch a break.
