      @@smw4020 hey! Believe it or not my foot healed up quick. In less than 2 months. The only sucky thing was walking after wearing the boot. I was suppose to have it on for 2 weeks but I opted for 4 because I really wanted to make sure I was ok. Just rest when you can, don’t put too much pressure on it and it will
      Heal in no time!

    I’m 76 and I’m trying walking backwards (10 minutes) on days I don’t run (Tuesdays, 😅 8:40 Thursdays, Saturdays). Right foot maybe cuboid and
    left foot on top of foot but do
    appear to hurt me when I’m
    running . Yet though it may be the walking backwards is the problem yet I feel more secure running. I do have toe spacers which I put on once

    Quick question I fractured my fifth metatarsal in my right foot last year. I came back, and I have been playing well, but recently I have gotten a bone bruise on my heel. It’s not bad, with no discoloring, but it’s been going well need to know if this will affect my past injury and how I can prevent discomfort and continue to get better???

    • @docjenfit
      @docjenfit  Рік тому +1

      Heel bruises can be tough. It might cause you to use slightly different mechanics in your foot, but hard to say how it might impact your past injury. Reducing impact on that heel by activity modification or using a more cushioned heel during the recovery might be a good place to start.

    My question is about resting pain. I don't have resting pain unless I touch a specific area. With these type of fractures, would the entire metatarsal be sensitive to touch or would it only be an isolated area. I'm asking about a slight pain on or near the metatarsal of my middle toe.

    • @docjenfit
      @docjenfit  Рік тому +1

      Hmm it is difficult to say exactly. There are a few different diagnoses that could cause pain in the metatarsal area of the middle toe. So without further assessment it would be tough to definitely say.

    • @docjenfit
      @docjenfit  Рік тому +1

      Sounds like you are putting too much pressure in this area on your foot. Really working on the flexibility of your foot into pronation and supination as well as working on foot stability exercises would be a great start!

    I know this is an older video, so I don’t expect a response. But when should I go to the doctor for pain if I’m not positive that it’s a stress fracture? I’m a competitive dancer and had a comp last weekend, and in class on Tuesday I started noticing the pain. It’s been a week and it hasn’t seemed to improve other than when I rest, but sometimes I notice the pain more when I rest. I was just gonna ignore it unless it got worse, but when I woke up this morning it hurt after not being on it yet. And it is the outside of the foot, so likely the 5th metatarsal. But my parents don’t want to waste money on an appointment for it to be nothing.
