Abstract
Abstract Fragility fractures, a form of stress fracture brought on by physiological stress on weak bones, are not common. It might be challenging to diagnose a fragility fracture since a standard radiograph shows signs of fracture repair rather than the actual fracture. We present a case of a 32-year-old woman who has been complaining of both leg pain for the last 4 months and has been unable to stand for the last 1 week. Further analysis revealed that her vitamin D levels were insufficient.
