Last Saturday I nailed my foot in a collision with a Keeper. I was trying to jump over him but I think his slide tackle caught my right foot as I was leaping. Long story short intense pain midfoot. Finished the game, barely(no subs). Sunday X-ray showed no fractures but walking is a bitch. I have another x-ray scheduled for Wednesday to see if there is an Occult breakage. The stuff I have read so far has been dire on injuries to this joint(MetaTarsal-Cuniform). The swelling has almost gone and the pain is beginning to subside.
Has anyone had the displeasure of this injury and any recommendations? Push for a CAT/MRI? The doctors(GPs) I have seen so far said to keep walking if the pain is not great but I want to minimize the long-term fallout. I also have a teammate who has a similar injury from July that he has not taken care of and he is still unable to kick a ball. I do not want to be him.
Thx.
