Pain in the tendon of the arch

Hard to say without seeing. Plantar fasciitis can occur in the middle of the arch. There are several tendons in that area, so could be any one of them.

 

Let me just ask, if it was PF, is there anything I can do at home to alleviate the pain? Ironically, while I’ve been dealing with this for months, today was the first day I felt it while standing.

 

Btw, while there might be lots of tendons, the pain is in that largest one that runs along the outside. You can see it particularly well when you bend your toes up.

 

These all might be wild guesses. You should have an x-ray and see a doctor

 

Without looking on the internet, my guess is that the top things that internet would say are rest, ice, NSAID's and arch supports.

 

Hello, just chiming in re: arch pain. I’ve been having swelling/pain in RT arch for 8 wks now. Had x-ray and bone scan w/tracer injected, both neg. for stress fracture. Can’t bare weight without pretty intense pain. Don’t feel it’s healthy to keep on Anti inflammatory med.s this long.
Dr. Just prescribed a prescription strength anti inflammatory. My question, should I suck it up and start forcing myself to stretch out the plantar fascia and bare weight or could this tear something? Thanks for any advice...just want to be able to take a walk again soon!
