Had a podiatry appt today. I'd made it months ago, and the soreness problem I was having when I made it is pretty much gone, but I didn't want to pass on an opportunity to see a specialist.
I have some kind of ganglenous cyst on top of my ankle (where the shoe laces tie)..that's what was causing me so much pain last October. She said they can drain it, but the cysts almost always come back. It's not bothering me much at all anymore, so I'm just going to put the cream on she gave me and leave it be. I also have a bone spur on my heel (other foot) from that plantar faciatis I struggled with for over a year. It doesn't really bother me much at all since I got my shoe inserts from Fleet Feet last fall. I'd heard spurs would grow if they went untreated, and I guess that's what happened last year. Interesting to know & neat to see on the xray.
I rode the recumbunt bike for 4.6 miles while I waited my turn for the post run (LOL) massage I got for v-day. It was a good massage, but she really worked on my shoulders and they're still sore a day later.
Finally had a salad for dinner...my body was ready for something healthy! |
