Re: bone oedema
Hi Lucas,
My understanding is that bone oedema or bone bruising has a similar treatment to a stress fracture, rest!
In which case there's not a whole lot you can do although some people advocate ultrasound for assisting fracture healing so it may assist in this case also.
Also how did the oedema come about? Trauma, overuse?
Anyway hope it settles soon
