Hi all, Just wondering if anyone can help. Was out running recently and got abiut halfway through my normal route when I had to stop with really bad pain in my heel. Hobbled home thinking it would be alright the next day. That was eight weeks ago and its still bad! Tried the doc who reckoned it was just inflamed and take some paracetamol and rest. Thats not working though. Pain is in the back and base of my heel. Worse in the morning and when getting up from sitting at desk etc. Is it plantar fasciatis? I thought that was more in undersole. If not does anyone know what it is and more importantly how I can fix it? I just wany to get running again - missing my winter training! Thanks loads Dave
Hi all, Hope someone can help. Been running regularly since December with no probs. Went out for a run on Sunday - did 8 miles and felt fine at the time. But a few hours later noticed a pain on the top of my right foot along the outside. Basically from near my little toe back towards my ankle. Been bad for a few days - hurts to walk on it. I've been putting ice on it and wearing a compression sock...not really getting much better. Browsing around online looks like maybe it's a stress fracture? Anyone had anything similar? Got any advice? Bit of a downer as was supposed to be doing Hever Castle tri next weekend. Thanks Dave
