There's something wrong with my foot
My left foot feels really strange. It feels af if it doesn't get enough blood flow, because it feels numb, but on the top side of my foot. It has been doing this for a long time now. My right foot feels normal though. Also, I play tennis, so I'm usually on the courts about 5 times a week. Tennis requires lots of footwork, including mainly smaller steps. We also do lots of conditioning. Sometimes I step on my left foot wrong, and it hurts very badly. I think that I've strained it once before and it hasn't totally healed yet. It's a different pain than the other one I first mentioned. It's like a muscle limping type pain and it hurts very badly. It's been like this for a long time. I'm not really sure what I should do. My mom said that we might go see the doctor sometime, but does anybody know any thing that I can do at home to ease the pain. And don't tell me to lay off tennis, because I'm not about to do that. Please help and I rate.

I know what you mean I play tennis too, you should definately go to the doctor. Something might have happened while you were playing tennis, but I don't know. Just go to the doctor.

hmmm.... You could have a bone bruise. They hurt like hell and it seems kind of like what I had. I had two and walked on my foot for about 3-4 months and it hurt and I could never feel it, it was just a mess. You should go to the doctor because you could do more damage to it not getting it treated! If it is a bone bruise, you wont be playing tennis 4 awhile, but think of it as you wont be in pain! I missed volleyball, track, and gymnastics the 1st time and basketball, cheerleading, and gymnastics the 2nd time. Just, go to the doctor, and even if its not a bone bruise, theyll be able to tell what it is for sure. As for at home, ice it, higher it above your heart, and if you have cructhes, stay on those and see if it heals that way!! Hope your foot gets better!!! ~*Raven*~

You should defitiley go to the doctor.. also whenever you are not playing tennis try not to put any preasure on the foot..that might help. Also, do you take tylenol or anything to ease the pain while you play? That might be a good idea. Also an ace bandage is a good idea.. so that you dont twist it the wrong way again while you are playing. Good Luck.. I hope your foot feals better!!

You should a doctor fast. In the meantime, whenever you're playing tennis, make sure you wrap your foot with an Ace bandage. When you're not playing tennis, take it easy. Put your foot on a pillow and do something unproductive like watch Happy Gilmore. Good luck, I hope you foot gets better!
Hope I helped!
Happy New Years!
