Well, I went back to the doctor this afternoon. I actually didn't see the doctor, I saw his Physician assistant. Anyway, she examined my foot again with the same results as last time. I received another patch on my ankle and also was prescribed a topical anti-inflammatory gel. it's called Voltaren� Gel and it appears to be used mainly for arthritis. I'll put some on tonight and see how it works.
I went for a 6 mile run this evening. The pain was still there during the run however it seemed to be just a little less than usual. So far so good. I'm keeping my fingers crossed and hoping for so relief.
I must say that the run this evening was pretty brutal. It was really hot and humid and to top it all off the air was perfectly still. No breeze to help cool me off. I hate this time of year in FL. I better get used to it thought since the bulk of my training will be taking place throughout the summer. It's only going to get hotter and the mosquitos will be coming soon too.
