Abstract

A 25-year-old woman reported to the emergency department with right medial midfoot pain after kicking a wall. Radiographs were noncontributory and the patient was diagnosed with a metatarsal contusion. Persistent pain post injury led her to seek a direct-access physical therapy evaluation. Following examination, the physical therapist requested magnetic resonance imaging, which confirmed a medial cuneiform fracture. <i>J Orthop Sports Phys Ther 2019;49(9):675. doi:10.2519/jospt.2019.8778</i>.
