All spring & summer I have been rehabing Plantar faciaits - heel spur & Morton's neuroma & now , just walking to the mailbox something ripped in my foot!
It created black & blue marks on the right side of my foot from my big toe at the floor line all the way to my ankle and they up to my ankle bone. I iced it right a way . WOW it hurt !
Any ideas? Short course starts for me Oct 4th.

Hi! You need to go see a podiatrist. Did you fall or anything when you were going to the mailbox? I am assuming this is your left foot since you mentioned the right side having the big toe. Morton's neuroma pain is located in the 3rd or 4th metatarsal (think the 3rd or 4th toe) but that is not where you are having problems. Sometimes if you receive cortisone injections for things such as plantar f. it can weaken the tendons and make ruptures more likely. It is best to see a doctor now and avoid it getting worse. What the person said about flip flops are true. They are not good for support at all. Go see a doctor. Good luck with your recovery and next meet!
