Foot injury (maybe tendon) since June. Please help.
I've had a pain in my foot, just behind my fifth metatarsel, since the beginning of June. I did it whilst running 10k and trying to achieve a personnal best (I did) but it didn't hurt at the time of running or immediatly after. It was a bit tender when I awoke the next day and then by mid morning I could hardly walk on it and was limping for nearly 2 weeks.
I thought I'd broke it it was that painful and went for an xray but this wasn't the case. Apparently I had partionaly torn my tendon away from the bone. I figured a good 8 weeks of rest would cure but I'm still suffering with it now. I had a cortisone injection into the joint 10 days ago but of no benefit as yet.
Has anybody had a similar problem or know of a quickish cure? I need to run again, HELP.
