A couple of weeks ago I tweaked what I think is the peroneal tendon in my left foot.
It felt mild at first so I went on a walk but it started hurting more and more. For a couple of days afterwards I could barely walk.
For the next two weeks I rested it completely - literally only walking between bathroom, bedroom, living room, kitchen. It seemed to be getting better and not hurting much.
I then tried walking round my garden a bit and I could sort of feel it but it wasn't too bad.
Today I tried to go on a walk and after quarter of a mile I was limping and had to turn back.
I've realised now that it isn't getting better at all - if I tried to do a long walk it would be just as bad as it was two weeks ago.
If I walk on tiptoes, it doesn't hurt.
Should I go to the doctor? What have I done, and will it heal?? I can't not walk - it's my main hobby, and I need to get outside in nature. Has anybody else had anything like this, and what happened?
Thanks.
