ball of foot pain
Hi,
Just wondering if many of you ladies have suffered with this? I am 12 month's post my second lot of chemotherapy (I had a recurrance 18mths after my 1st diagnosis). I have really bad pain under the ball of my foot which is much worse when I stand for long times. It feels like there is a marble under my foot. Has anyone had experience with this and have any tips for me. Many thanks.

- Well now two years on and it is there intermittently. I have orthotics and have spent a fortune at podiatrists. I find when it is bad I just wear my orthotics more. Seem to be surviving with it at present. I too am so over appointments Paula x
Hi, I had this but I had it prior to chemo anyway. Initially, it felt like a marble under my foot. I have what is called "Plantar Faciitus". Now, when I get out of bed or sit for any length of time the soles of my feet are stiff and a bit sore but after about 20 seconds of walking around they are fine. It is the tendons in the bottom of my feet - once stretched they are ok. I have also been told I probably just need orthotics. One gets sick of going to doctors. So at the moment I put up with it.

- Hi, Firstly Georgie, sorry I did not reply to your message, must have been a stressful time. Thanks ladies for you suggestions. It is almost a year since I posted that. It is slowly...very slowly getting better. It is actually not something I can palmate but just feels like a marble when I walk. However is much better. Thanks Paula :)
It might be a ganglion, and may settle in time. I had something like that..after wearing higher heeled shoes. I find I prefer lower and more cushioned footwear these days. Have you showed your GP?
