Monday, I had walked about 1.5 miles when I got a sudden pain in my outer ankle and on the bottom of my outer foot that stopped midfoot. Walking was painful at that point. I continued on to the gym and worked out as normal but skipped any calf exercises. Sometimes, I walk back home from the gym, but I knew I would never make it with the pain I was having.<br><br>
When I got home, I iced my ankle and it felt better. That next morning, I was feeling okay, so decided to try to run. I was pain-free for about a block and the pain was too great after a quarter mile.<br><br>
I stopped running at that point and I appeared to be getting better as the week went on. Saturday, I ran a 5K race at a really slow pace while wearing an aircast. I won't say I was pain-free during the race, but it wasn't anything like my previous attempt at running. After the race, I started having issues with walking again.<br><br>
I can stand in one spot with no pain, but it seems that standing for a long period aggravates it when I try to walk again. It feels a lot like my ankle gets very stiff, but today I was feeling around my foot and noticed that just under my ankle, along my outer foot, and on the top of my foot closest to my ankle, there is soreness.<br><br>
Additionally, my first steps in the morning are especially painful.<br><br>
So, anyone?
