Freiberg's infraction in a collegiate heptathlete

In 1914, Freiberg described a condition of infraction of the second metatarsal head. At the time, he considered direct trauma to be the etiologic agent, but he later disproved this by demonstrating a case without a history of trauma. This article describes a case of Freiberg's infraction in a female collegiate heptathlete and the effects of conservative treatment of her condition with custom-made orthoses.
