I went to get my foot looked at today because it was not getting any better and it was painful to walk on it. I have had aches and pains from running before that I just deal with but this felt different. They did x-rays to rule out any type of fracture. Those were good. They said it is either tendonitis of the tendon, (I think it was the peroneus brevis) or I tore it a slight bit or a lot and it runs along the bottom right side of my foot on my right foot and up the side of my ankle (which would explain the shooting pains I would get along my calf muscle. They gave me an immolizer boot to wear for three weeks and an ankle support when I don't wear the boot and a check up in three weeks. It is suppose to heal with no weight bearing and if it is a big tear that will still show up on MRI, so if it's not better by three weeks, I will have to have an MRI.

Actually, this boot helps. No pain when I walk and I have a little more patience when I don't have to have an annoying pain in my foot...
So hopefully wearing this it will heal.
Having it on today in 100 degree weather, I have a feeling it will smell real nice after a couple weeks!
