It's been going on for ages. I have had to stop running - I did my 21k last weekend for the Mr T's memorial run but that was the first for ages. Tried a few miles last night but I am crippled this morning.

RICE is all very well but how do you rest a foot without taking to your bed ?

Anyone got any brilliant and quicker cures than that? Please. getting desperate

which part of the foot is it?

Across the arch of my foot and down into my toes. When it's really bad there is a pain in the ball of my foot too.

ooooo, sorry don't know any exercises for that. have you tried a physio or podiatrist? regular anti-inflamms for a few days?
hope someone more helpful comes along.

Thanks kitten .

I've tried everything except for being completely immobile for a few bloody weeks

I can't run and it's making me unhappy. And fat!
