Not every injury shows itself clearly on day one—and that’s where experience matters.
This patient came in after an automobile accident with ongoing foot pain that was previously overlooked. A closer, more detailed evaluation revealed a 5th metatarsal fracture along with Painful Os Peroneum Syndrome (POPS)—a condition that can easily be missed but can significantly affect function and recovery if left untreated.
At RES Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, we don’t just read reports—we listen to the patient, correlate the story, and carefully review imaging to find what others may miss. That’s how proper diagnosis happens, and that’s how real recovery begins.
The good news—this patient is on the right path and expected to recover well.
