Question: Dr. Parinam: Thank's for your recent answer regarding my right leg problem. A follow-up question would be asking if it's OK to continued walking for exercise, even if a mild stress fracture? Thanks.....

Brief Answer:
Ok to walk

Detailed Answer:
I am sorry for a delayed response but I did not intend to. I was not notified properly about this question.

Was a fracture certainly there? Was it reviewed by the doc? You can walk as long as you do not catch pain and the fracture is not displaced one.
