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 that stinks!

Very interesting. Wonder where in the world of totv we can find a Foot doctor who may be familiar with any of this?

That injury comes from doing something athletic and not stretching prior. You should never go barefoot, stretch your feet, pulling toes towards abdomen before you get out of bed. High arch people are prone to this problem and it can last for months. No substitute for stretching, good arch support and keeping a reasonable weight.

"The wife???" She isn't an object. That's how you would refer to "the table." How about using her name?

"The Wife" does not like to use social media and doesn't want her name plastered all over the innerwebs...

Be thankful I didn't use some of the other names I call her (under my breath...)

I completely tore my plantar fascia when I was playing pickleball. I heard a loud snap when I landed on my foot and then intense pain. I could not put any weight on my foot. My podiatrist put me in a boot to keep the ligament from reattaching. He said we don't really need it! After 2 months I was back to playing Pickleball again (with an orthotic insert), although it took about 8 months for me to be able to walk barefoot in the house without pain. Good luck!

However, in the initial post, the OP did Not mention that he’s a podiatrist! If he had, people wouldn’t have responded the way they did.

Which is why I posted this:

"But yeah, It's does drive me a bit bonkers when people don't read the thread before posting..."

Notice how I said "the thread"?

On the very first page of the thread (post #13, to be specific), I -DID- comment that I am a Podiatrist...

I don’t have a problem with using “the wife”; to me it can be used in meaning like “the Queen” “the Boss” etc “the Wife” or I suppose “the maid” just means a special person.

You can satisfy the other poster by making up a name for the wife. How about Sarsaparilla?

In my house (oops, did I say "my" house?), The Wife prefers to be referred to as "She Who Must Be Obeyed", so I go with that.

OP, sorry for your injury. Quit softball and pickleball because of various injuries occurring more frequently than I liked to deal with them. You might say “aged myself out of play.” Sooner or later it happens to all of us. As you know, one can play and enjoy golf much longer even with the aging process and prior injuries. Unfortunately the fountain of youth has yet to be found!

schedule a few foot stretching exercises, take 2 aspirins, and post us in the morning. You'll be as good as new

Well they say Dr heal thyself so wonder if our favorite podiatrist can self operate? Hopefully no surgery is required.

I never read the entire thread before posting. I respond to a post at the time I read that post. It doesn't make sense to me to begin reading a thread that maybe a few pages long then have to go back to the beginning to respond to posts that I wanted to respond to when I read them the first time. It is not only this forum but all forums that I respond as I read.

It would be more precise to say, "Dr heal thy heel..."

But it is feeling a bit better. I was able to play 18 holes today... The only time it really hurt was when climbing out of the damn sand traps...

But that's on me...

Yeah, that makes a lot of sense to me.

Of course, a lot of posts are unfortunately written in the currently popular 'word salad' style, which makes them pretty much unintelligible.

Hummm, I certainly have no business giving anyone any kind of "medical" advice but.... seems like just one day of rest off feet might not be enough ? Hope just the one day does it, best wishes !

Rest, what’s that? Will have plenty of time to rest when dead.

I was diagnosed with plantar a year ago on one foot. I told the doc I was sitting indian style legs crossed and putting several hours of stress on the foot that ended up having it. He prescribed me with expensive inserts and said plantar/inserts can be a lifelong thing like needing glasses. I still wear the inserts the few times I wear shoes outside, and any pain I once had has been gone a few months after seeing him and never returned. I've done heavy calf raises in my workouts since HS (long ago!) so my arches have always been strong, but I'm just more careful with how I sit and what kind of stress I may be putting on my feet. I try not to lean on them for hours while sitting and just keep them relaxed when not on them.

Well, it has been 5 days... Woke up this am, pain rated 2-3/10. Played 18 holes (@ Lopez) and it felt much better... Hardly limping...
