I went to work and the phone book was opened to the physicians section. So I started to thumb through the pages and ended up on the pediatrist section. Thought entered my mind that I ought to give it a try. So like a runner, I looked at all the pictures and adds and made the choice of doctor solely based on if he or she looked like a runner. Well, I didn't get a runner, but I got a fitness guru. He did the normal foot test that I had done weeks ago and gave me the same diagnosis, posterior tibial tendonitis. He wanted me to get back running so he put 5 strips of tape on my foot and told me to try it out. Boy was I skeptical! Managed 4 miles without any issues! At the end of the run I felt a slight bit of discomfort in the ankle. Oh it is nice to blog about a run. I need to start slow and get things totally healed. |
