771.0. "Exercise-easy on feet" by DPDMAI::HUDDLESTON () Thu Oct 01 1992 21:38

    Does anyone have any suggestions for exercising that won't irritate my
    foot.  The doctor thinks its tendenitis.

    Which tendon?  What motion is painful?  Where is the pain?  Ankle or
    foot?  Instep or sole?

    I don't think the doctor knows whats wrong.  Its the part that attaches
    your toes to your foot.  Sometimes my instep, sometimes the heel. 
    Swimming is not always convienient.

771.4TendonitisAKOCOA::PEASLEEThu Oct 15 1992 21:128
    I was diagnosed with tendonitis.  The sensitive (painful) area
    was a line running from the inside of my big toe down past the 
    inside of the ball of my foot.  I couldn't walk for a day
    and the doctor told me to stay off my foot for a week.
    The pain appears to have gone.  
    I was told that with tendonitis - the best thing to do is 
    give the affected area REST.

    Doesn't sound like tendonitis to me - I had exactly those symptoms with
    a stress fracture in my foot.
    
    Same treatment tho'!
