Wondering if anyone knows the medical term
for what I did to my foot... I've got pain
right between my big toe and the toe next
to that. When I first injured my foot,
there was also pain at the top of my
foot.
In short, there was an emergency, and
wearing a cheap pair of shoes, took off
running. When I stopped, my left foot was
in pain. This happened May 15th, 2006. The
pain was pretty bad and I had troubles
walking for a few weeks after... and it
wasn't until October of 06 that the pain
went away.. but I do think wearing a pair
of Saucony's Hurricane Style footware (for
a few months-got them after the injury)
helped as well. Well, January of 07, was
wearing a new pair of shoes, and was just
running around with my dog. While running,
I experienced that all too familiar pain
yet again... and am now back into my
Saucony's (which by the way need to be
replaced... with a newer pair).
I would have gotten it checked out,
however for the fact that it was
considered a "minor injury", and nothing
to worry about... and without my own
transportation had to suffer... I have
found out however that if I pop my big
toe, as well as the joint for the big toe
in the ball of the foot, and the next toe
over, that it helps relieve pain within
the area, making it easier to walk.
My first thoughts were a pinched nerve
between my big toe and the one next over.
My thoughts are still the same, as I can't
figure out what else it could be... I'm
wondering if anyone else has gone through
this, or if someone may know the medical
term so I can learn more about it.
