Plantar Fasciitis...

Bloody sore!

That's all.

 

Trim sigs?

 

Unless I'm on a bike, I tend to be in Reeboks.

Couldn't find that name, but they have these:

do you mean those?

BTW, that is not a proper sig sep, it should be
<dash><dash><space><return>

You'll get flak, in here, if you don't sort it. ;-)

 

Got one already. What's your excuse?

 

Well, don't stick your face in plant pots, you daft sod.

Try having it kicked by your then boyfriend...oh, you did!

 

Not had a tear, but I have had severe bruising and that was bad
enough. I think a tear would have driven me to saw me bloody leg off -
much less painful...

 

I bet your ears were on fire, when she regained the power of speech!

Yeah, mine went away eventually.

That is getting worse, though. Stayed in a college in Oxford for
a conference just three years ago, and didn't notice that there was a step
down immediately inside the door. I stepped into the room with the last
cm or so of my shoe-heel caught on the top of the step. I don't know
exactly what happened then, but it bloody hurt. I keep jarring it again
when I catch my shoe on a bit of uneven pavement, and it sometimes hurts
spontaneously.

Also realised tonight that I've been having a strange pain right in
the tip of my big toe for a few days. Haven't worked out a reason for that
yet; it's not a joint so it can't be me old mate Arfur. Nor gout.

I had this last year. It coincided with a period of relative inactivity.
The "blue dot" orthotic things help. My local independent pharmacy[1] sold
something similar to the ones that TS recommends. Just the heel supports. I
still have them in a pair of trainers.

Miraculously, when I changed jobs and became much more active the problem
went away.

There are some stretch excercises which help, too. If I feel a twinge
nowadays, a couple of stretching sessions seems to do the trick.
http://www.patient.co.uk/showdoc/23068803/ describes what you need to do.

With my current affliction, the wonky knee, I've found using a bean bag as
a foot rest under my PC desk helps. You can do a number of excercises to
keep the muscles working and the beans provide some gentle resistance.

Oh, and finally, the problem would never have occured if you weren't such a
fat ****.

[1] Boots & Superdrug sell crap, overpriced things.

 

First time I've had it since the weight went on about 20 years ago.

I was fucking plagued with it when I was a skinny sod and did far less
than I do now, though (6'2" and 11st).

Oh, BTW, sod off, stumpy!

 

This can in turn lead to severe earache... at least it did when SWMBO
had it.

Not a good one to have anyway, due to the tendency for it to recur
(1).

(1) Plantar Fasciitis, that is - the recurrence of earache is a given
when you're married.

 

I thought this was going to be a thread about Mars exploration.

 

End yours..
