Craig 6703 Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 Playing 5-a-side tonight, I went to clear the ball up field and when my foot followed through, one of the blokes on the other side who was trying to volley the ball connected with the underside of the arch of my foot leaving me in a heap on the floor. I carried on for the rest of the game thinking I could run it off, but the pain's continued. Got home tonight, took my trainer off and the bridge of my foot is puffed up like a balloon. My ankle is absolutely fine, the swelling is further forward than that - current sat here with an ice pack on it... Anyone got any ideas? Well looking forward to the pain in the morning!

Dr Kenneth Noisewater 0 Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 I don't think it will be a sprain as there are no tendons or ligaments in the arch are there? More likely to be deep bruising, still painful though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catmag 337 Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 Take anti-inflammatories and keep it elevated. Might not be wise to drive if it's too painful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holden McGroin 7031 Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 (edited) I got the old plantar Fasciitis injury in my 2nd game last season. Couldnt play for a month and I still have to wear pads and gel insoles. Nasty little bugger. Then went on to pull a hamstring and strain knee ligaments just after Chrimbo. Out for 3 months. Felt like Kieron Dyer...but without the lighter and £50 notes. Edited August 14, 2006 by Holden McGroin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Patrokles Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 A more pertinent question is why were you hoofing it in 5-a-side? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig 6703 Posted August 14, 2006 Author Share Posted August 14, 2006 because we have no 'head height' or 'no people in the box' rules in our games! Football is football - bollocks to all these non-contact rules! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renton 22641 Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 Sounds like you have damaged your plantar fascia like, as has been suggested - basically you may have torn the connective tissue on the soles of your feet. I suffer from intemittent plantar fasciitis. It's pretty bad - about 3 or 4 times a year I wake up to find I can't put any weight on my feet. Nothing helps - it's an extremely nasty and debilitating condition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
