Quit running? What about biking-it sometimes causes big discomfort. But now its been about 4 months and still limping around the office. Doc seemed fine with running as long as I felt I was making progress. Was slowly getting better but now seems to have plateaued and some days are rather painful. Able to run three days a week in Hoka One Ones only. Pain sometimes radiates down to all toes in a tingly sensation and around the joint but the nerve ganglion seems OK, but squeezing the joint is very painful. I thought I had broken it but X-ray is negative and later MRI showed inflamation in the joint. stepped badly on a big chunk of crud and rolled the foot (not the ankle).

The pain doesn't stop me, but I'm pretty sure that if I don't lay off that the inflammation will only increase. I thought that maybe I've increased too quickly the amount of time that I'm putting into the cycling trainer, but I do not feel the inflammation/pain while riding (indoors or outdoors). Sure, I know RICE, and other things like flaxseed oil and NSAIDs, but because I don't know what caused it, I'm a little lost about how to fix and avoid another flare-up specifically, I have a 50mi trail race in April and I need to maintain my base, but running is where I feel the pain the most acutely. The pain never got better or worse during the run and now that I've only done one run since the 26th (5 mi trail run on Friday the 30th) and the inflammation remains constant, I know that this is probably not going away overnight.Īdditionally, any information about how to shorten the healing time, or if there are some things that I should avoid. I should have turned around and scraped that run, but because my volume has been light and I hadn't injured my foot, I finished the run. I never felt the pain until the following day when I was going for a 5-7 mi run and the very first step on my right foot told me that something wasn't right. I also am not a stranger to the treadmill, so that combination should not have set off the inflammation. The trail shoes are heavier and have more padding, but I obviously use them to run trail. The only thing that I have recently done differently was on Xmas Day, I ran 6 mi on a treadmill with my trail shoes (we were at a hotel and the trail shoes were all that I had packed). I typically run in minimalist shoes and sometimes I step on rocks that I don't see (when I'm not wearing my Rx sunglasses or at night). At first, I thought it was just a bruise because the pain sensation is localized and well defined. Got the Dx from my spouse who is a physician, but she like most doctors, is good with Rx and not so much with the needs of an athlete.Įssentially, I was hoping to understand how that this could have happened when I have not done anything obvious that would lead to an overuse, inflammatory injury.
