| I hope you don't either. I can tell you that the boot really offloads the foot and makes it feel much better. A torn ligament is much harder to heal than a stress fracture. I have been fighting this for 4 months, not realizing it was a torn ligament. My doc is good, but my symptoms were not consistent with a torn ligament and I pretty much demanded that she test me for it. She was quite surprised at the outcome. Anyway, surgery is needed if it does not heal, so I am being a very good girl. Please let me know what the doctor says!

| If the pain is right behind the outer three toes, it could be Morton's Neuroma. Look it up on the Internet for information. I had that years ago and one injection cured it! |

| That sounds like a diagnosis a walk-in clinic would give. I really do urge you to see someone who knows what they are talking about. Foot injuries can be very hard to diagnose properly, even by an expert and getting the wrong diagnosis can set you up for months of needless pain. I took Advil for my stress fracture and it did nothing.

| i had/have a stress fracture of the 4th metatarsal in my left foot....i walked on it for almost 4 months thinking it was just strained....well i wore a boot for 4 weeks and it hurt worse than going without the boot.....but it didnt heal....i evidently went too long without going to the ortho doc.....and last x-ray still showed the bone not connecting....the only way to fix it is surgery and my doc says as long as it is bearable that i would be better off without the surgery....cause to fix it would take screws and with my history of degenerative disc disease in my back...more than likely the bones will never mend together......so good luck...i really do have alot of pain in mine anymore unless i have to stand still for a long time.....good luck sweety....and go for a second opinion

| I agree with Gracie. I think it might be a stress fracture. I am a school nurse, and see alot of these related to sports injuries. Go to your doctor and if she thinks you need a specialist, she can refer you. Hopefully she can help you, so your not out alot of money. Good luck!!
