Pickleball Got Me Today...
 

My first full day back in TV and I went to play Pickelball with the wife. 5 minutes into our 2nd game, I felt something "pop" in my right arch, close to the heel...

I knew what it was right away. A partial tear in my Plantar Fascia... I tired to finish the game, but I had to quit...

I popped a handful of Motrin, and I've spent the afternoon with and ice bag on my heel and the foot elevated. No sign or bruising or swelling (which is good), but it hurts like a sumbich when I first get up to walk...

I had to cancel our golf game this afternoon...

I could have sworn someone said that Pickelball was better than golf...

Hopefully, I'll be able to play golf when my daughter and son in law arrive tomorrow evening. We have a tee-time at Evans Prairie on Wednesday...

Well, at least I'll be able to take the cart...

Ouch!

Give it plenty of rest - all to easy to try to get back out there too soon.

Think an xray is in order. Pop does not sound good

Lot’s of time to get in trouble on TOTV then.

Now if you only knew a good foot doctor. lol

Ice, crutches, limited activity, pain control …you know the drill….

And music, good music.

Ummm...

I'll see if I can find one...:1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl:

Take two aspirin and call yourself in the morning...

Sounds painful, I hope you can find help soon.

:a20:

Medically... I got it covered...

Psychologically? I don't think I'm curable... :jester:

Florida Musculoskeletal in lake Sumter Landing Dr. Weber, have him take a look I have been very pleased with his services. I have potentially bad knees, was advised to avoid all sports with high impact to knees, I have followed the advice, I golf and bowl, and knees are working fine.

ouch...I've had plantar fasciitis, in both feet...hurts a lot....I don't want to try to imagine what a partial tear would feel like...
I've had a succession of hamstring problems this winter, and now fighting (and losing) a battle with tennis elbow.

I wish you a speedy recovery, but you know better than most, these things don't heal quickly.

Thanks, but treating this is what I've been doing for a living for over 35 years...

As some of you know, I'm a Podiatrist... :wave:

I just hope it's feeling better before I go back to the office in 2 weeks... Having your Podiatrist limping around the office doesn't exactly instill an air of confidence to your patients... :p

Might as well go on a shellfish and liquor binge, bring on the gout. What the hell, your foot is out of commission anyways!

Sounds like Plantar Fasciitis. I froze a 16 oz water bottle and while you are sitting around roll it back and forth on the bottom of your foot. Plantar Fasciitis does not go away real quick. It took me months to get rid of it. Good Luck:
