Pain in the lateral part of my foot (side) HELP?

Question

I had an injury to my ankle 5 years ago i had physical therapy for a couple months but since then on occasion i have this pain on the side of my foot it isnt that flat part that touches the ground its just a lil bit above that there is like a bone there that is the pain. like the past 3 days i mean terrible pain. pain to touch pain at night when i sleep numbness now . i push on it and it hurts but the hurt is good you know. i wrap it and it hurts too much. Also if i twist my foot the other way it gives some relief.???? so any ideas? does this have to do with the arch like can i buy something over the counter to put in my shoe to help or something ..this is crazy pain. I will be making an appointment tomorrow but any body have any thoughts or ideas until i can get into see my dr.
thanks.

Answer 1

Could be a peroneal tendon problem. The peroneal tendon runs on the outside of your ankle near. Try to find an orthopedic surgeon that specializes in the ankle/foot.

Answer 2

I sounds like a piece ot the meniscus may have torn loose and is getting stuck in the joint and not allowing your knee to bend all the way. You may have hurt your knee sometime in the past and the result is just now showing up. If it is a "loose body" as we call it a piece of cartilage is floating around in the joint space it can get stuck and then come loose again which could be why you have problems bending it sometimes and other times it is ok. Good luck to you. If you think of it drop me a note to let me know what it was, thanks. Ron

Answer 3

My suggestion would be for you to see a doctor but you have planned that already. In the meantime, I would suggest something like Alive for the pain. It's either that or scotch.
