and before you say i shouldnt be asking on here, go to the hospital etc etc……..i dont want to go and wait 5 hrs in accident and emergency for an xray.
2 weeks ago i thought i twisted/sprained my ankle whilst circuit training. painful, but thought itd be fine in a few days. its now 2 weeks and still painful, and its clear that its not my ankle, but the top of my foot thats sore, spreading to where it joins the front of my leg. it hurts when i change direction on it, put weight on it, that sort of thing.
so……..from thinking it was a sprain, to now wondering about metatarsals etc etc, without any knowledge of where different bones and tendons are, natch 🙂
ive got some physical tests for a job next week which include running, and lifting etc.
should i just take anti-inflammatories and hope it gets better in the next few days? obviously if its a break, they wont work, but then id be stuffed anyway wouldnt i? and it wouldnt need a cast i dont think, as i can walk on it and get about, altho pedalling or running in anger are out of the question at the mo.
yes i know youre not doctors, but im just after some general “no it cant be a break or you wouldnt be able to walk on it” or “sounds like tendons/ligaments and they normally take a few weeks to heal” sort of stuff.
unless anyone actually IS a doctor of course and can perform a virtual diagnosis 🙂
cheers
