Strained Hammy

Physical Therapy Questions

Hi, I strained my hamstring while running in November of 2011.
I continued to run for the next few months, taking 2 weeks off in June.
I started back again, not feeling too much pain, but when I would run fast I could feel it.
It bothered me so much in September that I took 4 weeks off of running, came back, and still bothered me.
I’ve now taken 2 months off of running, only doing hamstring curls of like 25 lbs to try and strengthen it, and I can still feel it.
What should I do?

I have notice that when I am out walking or if I am exercising, the bottom of my feet and my ankles hurt me so bad. Then the pain goes up to my leg. I have to sit down because it hurts so bad. Is there anything that I should try before I go to the doctor about it?

Physical Therapy Questions

About three to four weeks ago I was given Levaquin 500 for a sinus infection to be taken one a day for ten days. On the sixth day I began having pain in my shoulders, upper arms and across shoulder blades. After reading the prescription info I read that this med could cause tendon problems.
Thus, I quit taking the med.
I am still having pain – sometimes severe and mostly in the right arm, etc.
The left area seems better. Can I expect this pain to gradually subside or should I see a doctor?

Physical Therapy Questions

Sorry to bother you but I have a question about tendonitis. My Tendons bother me in the the front of my foot from extending my ankle and foot when running etc. It will only bother while I am running and the pain will go away very quitly once I am not straining them anymore. I have to take a phisical for firefighting and I am wondering what excercises I can do to try and strengthen my tendons. Thank you very much

Burning pain on top outside of right foot and right hand

Podiatry & Foot Questions

Hello,

I’m a 45 year old healthy male. I exercise regularly. About 4 months ago I started feeling a burning pain on the top outer side of my right foot. The pain starts at about the mid point of my foot (lengthwise) and extends down to just before my little toe. There is no pain in any of my toes. I went to a foot specialist and after having some xrays taken he said it might be a little bit of arthritis. There is no swelling of my foot at all, just this burning pain that seems to be at its worst when I get up out of bed first thing in the morning.
I have the exact same type of burning pain in my right hand…specifically the knuckle of my index finger. If I accidently bump that knuckle on something the pain is really intense. I haven’t done anything to injure it that I can remember in the past.
My main question is, could these burning pains in some way be related?
If so what could it be?
