Ask a Question about Your Condiition

I have had minor sore pains in my arch on my left foot! Played soccer the other day and after five minutes, I felt like something was tearing in one quick action! I actually think I heard that ligament expand! I played on it, mostly just putting weight on the left side of my left foot for about an hour! When I got home I had a pretty big size bruise all along the arch! I've done some research and I imagine I extended(hopefully not tore) that ligament! I'm not in too much pain when I sit but when i stand up for a longer period of time its starts aching, as blood is rushing too it! So i've been icing it and elevating my leg! It happened two days ago and I feel as if its gotten slightly better! I'm still limbing pretty bad and once again put most of the pressure to the left side of that foot! I dont have insurance and dont want to get expensive x-rays done! Definetley dont want to have surgery! And I want to get back on the soccer pitch : ( Please let me know how much rest i need so that i dont reaggravate it or make it worse and if i can do anything to improve that area! If you have any kind of informative input and advice, please let me know, i would very much appreciate it! Thank You - Jeff
