Extensor tendonitis (top of your foot). 3 recommended treatments to manage your pain

[@adriaanadriaan]

I got this 2 days ago by running barefoot for relatively long distances. Already starts to feel better... Massageing the painful spot is painful, but afterwards seems to help as well. Edit: Update 2 weeks later; pain is gone completely! Thanks! 😊

That is good to hear. Thank you for your response.

I was having this problem and I fixed it just by taking the shoelaces out of my sneakers. As I've gotten older my feet need more room at the top of the shoe and I also had to go to a larger size. No more foot pain and I turned my sneakers into slip-ons. Love it that I don't have to mess with tying laces anymore. :) (I just listened to the video. He recommends loosening your laces, but you can also just remove them, if that feels better, like I did.)

My foot is killing me! Podiatrist gave me a cortisone shot, nothing happened!

Cortisone decreases the amount of inflammation over the area for certain period of time, typically lasts for 6 weeks, but unless the mechanism of motion that causes inflammation changes, the pain from inflammation can always come back.
