Hello Everyone
A few months ago after an upturn in running, I began to get a shooting pain at the top of my foot, which stopped as soon as I stopped exercising. Stupidly I continued to run on the foot, and eventually the pain began to persist when walking. It eventually got to the point where I could not walk without bad pain, situated right in the middle of my foot.
It cases pins and needles in my big toe and also my heel when I press them, although the pain seems to be situated directly on my metatarsal, and hurts a lot when I press on a specific point on my foot, either from the top or the bottom.
I also notice my foot is a lot colder to the touch than my other foot.
The only thing which helps, is rest. Every time I reinjure, the healing process becomes longer and longer.
I have recently got my CT scan results back and nothing has shown in terms of bone or tissue damage. I was convinced it was a stress fracture as it has crippled my social life and I can only walk for very small periods of time a day without it worsening severely.
I am clueless as to what is wrong, any ideas I would really appreciate, as the NHS are clueless.
Cheers in advance J
