Stress Fractures of the Foot and Ankle

Brody Riedel

I hurt my back in the Spring of 2024; ultimately having to come out of my last lacrosse playoff game. After seeing Dr. Wyss and finding out I had a stress fracture in my lumbar spine, I had to let it heal. But with that he came up with a gameplan to get me ready for Fall football. He made me feel calm and confident that I was going to get back. Ultimately I returned to the football field achieving all county honors. Dr. Wyss gave me the confidence to play with the intensity I needed. Next step is back to lacrosse for the Spring 2025 season. Thank you Dr. Wyss!
