    This is exactly what I have been dealing with for over 5 years now. It doesn't appear on X-Rays and the doctors I have seen seem to think there is nothing wrong, to the point where I have reached a limit to acquiring professional assistance in my community on Canadian healthcare. The pain, especially when the ankle locks up, is so severe that I have been out of work for 2 years without compensation. Thank you for explaining this injury. Hopefully I can now find someone to follow up on it and help me out. This injury has really altered my life for the worse. Best wishes.

      I finally solved my own issue by altering my diet. Oddly enough, cutting out all dairy, wheat products, and foods containing MSG and palm oils, the pain went away. I can now jog again, have lost 20 pounds, and am back to work.

Being unable to afford the treatments, I had given up hope, until changing my diet began to show an noticeable improvement in my condition.

Now I have sharp pains in right ankle in the area described in video when doing yard work (uneven surfaces) and on my feet for several hours. Pain, at times, will almost bring me to my knees to get weight off it. I wonder if I have this sinus tarsi syndrome. Haven't played ball in 35+ years.

    I went from years of wearing heavy, steel toed work boots to fancy Italian leather dress shoes in one day, so I could look nice for some formal event I was attending. No support. Collapsed arch? By the end of the day I was hobbling to get home. Tons of pain, even while resting in bed. The pain can be so bad I lose the ability to stay upright; my strength in that foot totally disappears if I stand on it. It’s like a pinched nerve or tendon.

    Can this cause the foot to fall asleep on long runs? I've been having an issue with pain in that area and my foot falling asleep while running. I train for triathlon and my foot will go numb within the 1st couple miles and stay that way for and hour then the feeling gradually returns. Nothing more annoying than running on a dead stump. I saw a doctor over year ago. They took an exray and only suggested a cortisone shot which I refused. The sinus Tarsi pain comes and goes and have run through the pain which only last about a mile in most cases, but the numbing is really concerning and slows my race pace. How do I present this to a expert to get it resolved? I don't want to walk in and say "I saw this on youtube". You can guess how that gets reacted to. Would a chiropractor be able to help vs a foot doctor?

    I think I have this problem. I went to a doctor years ago he prescribed some orthotics. I don't remember what my insurance paid but it was a lot. My portion was $600. I was told that they would last about 6 years. They fell apart in a month. They didn't help that much. I copied them the ones I make last a little longer mostly because I can repair them. The problem with doctors in general is all they do is try to get you out the door. Sometimes I think they are extra unhelpful so you won't bother them again. It just seems hopeless .

      But recently, my left 🦶 is flaring up like how I imagine a 🦂 sting would feel. I was standing & actually thought a wasp got in my shoe & stung me there. Later when I was off my feet & barefoot, the pain would shoot hard. Time to go back to the Dr to see what can be done.

    Is it possible for an ankle sprain to turn into sinus tarsi about a decade after the injury? My ankle hasn't been injured recently but for the last 3 years I've been dealing with intermittent pain at my ankle and tingling sensations in my foot and my GP couldn't find anything wrong. This syndrome is what most closely matches the pain location. I badly sprained that ankle as a preteen but my parents never brought me to a doctor to get it checked out, so I wonder if maybe it just didn't heal right?

    I have pain in my right ankle it doesn't hurt when I run or workout yet it hurts when I wake up so bad or when I'm more on my tip toes and it's been consistent for months now yet no pain if I run? it doesn't make sense also it feels as if my ankle will just break and collapse on its self sometimes?
