Subject: RE: Sharp foot pain Well, I don't think it is a stress fracture. It's a little more spread out than the one I had in my shin four or five years ago, but the pain is somewhat similar. I decided to go for a run today and see how it felt (5 days off, some icing, anti inflam. ). It doesn't feel any different than before I ran. I was just going to do an out and back so I could turn around if it was bothering me, and I ended up doing 8 miles, the first and last mile on hard surfaces, the other six on the beach, and my foot feels fine. It really didn't bother me when I ran, but still hurts to press on or if I roll my foot out when walking. I am going to keep an eye on it, but the running definitely didn't make it worse. Weird. |
