Abstract
Adults who run for sport or for pleasure often present to their primary care physician with musculoskeletal complaints. Rapid diagnosis and conservative management of common running injuries and referral of patients with injuries that have a propensity for morbidity, such as femoral neck stress fractures, are reviewed. Careful evaluation of the patient's running program and physical therapy are important components of management.
