OT: Pain in my foot
So I have been having this severe pain in my left foot and even before I started working out. Went to the doctor and she ordered an xray of my foot on the side and the arch. They called and said that I have multiple bone spurs and that was causing all the pain. UGH I haven't stopped my workout routine but lordy it makes it so much harder to want to do it because I know it's going to hurt. She said they weren't bad enough to take out as of now and I am only on tramadol for pain. Tramadol has worked great until here recently and now it don't even touch the pain. Sorry Rant is over
I hope you find some kind of relief for your pain.
I hope you can find something that gives you relief!!
I would ice my heel when I got home from work, and my then boyfriend ( now hubs ) would give me a much needed foot massage.
Can you maybe do a stationary bike for your cardio to take the pressure off your foot somewhat?
I woke up in between a memory and a dream...

(((Jamie))) Sorry you are having pain. I've had spurs in my feet for years. for me though the pain has come and gone. Sometimes it will flare up and be quite painful for a while then completely subside for months at a time. Hang in there I do hope you will have relief soon.
I also discovered bone spurs in my feet and bad inflammation in ankle .the pain was so intense I was crying with every step.
I went to my rheumatologist and after X-ray he gave me two shots in ankle, lidocaine patches- huge and told me to ice every three hours n take it easy. That was Saturday and today the pain is gone. I am still a little stiff. Not sure when I really should resume walking so I am taking the day off. For me the inflammation is directly related to carb n starch intake. Beans for protein for a number of days really did me in. Plus hours of walking onthursday - Halloween really hurt.
