extreme pain in lower foot

(2 discussions)

I am have extreme pain in my lower foot right below the ankle. The pain gets so bad that I can put no pressure on it whats so ever. This is the worst pain I have ever experianced in my life I can’t bend my foot up and down and I can’t move it side to side its like it is stiff from that one spot and it is an everyday struggle.usualy happens after I have been on my feet for a long period of time. After that it takes up to 2 to 3 days before I can limp on it again. I went to the ER and the doctor who saw me for a whoping 3 mins said “oh its just a little sore from your weight” well it is not just a little sore and if it was my weight wouldnt my other foot be in just as much pain from me having to put all my weight on it all my life because the other one hurts?. Do you have any Idea of what it may be?

    Without an examination I can’t be sure. I am sorry the ER doctor did not take more time to evaluate your problem. I do recommend you see a podiatrist for an evaluation.Life is too short to limp.

    I was playing softball and was running when I felt this pop in my lower foot right under my angle. It has swelled up and I can’t walk on it at all. What do I need to do or what does this mean?
