Injury: Top-of-the-Foot Pain-Treatment and Recovery

Addendum:

Preface: I am not a doctor, and I do not claim that this article can diagnose or treat tendon injuries. This is a collection of information based on my personal experiences, research, and talks with doctors. This is an informative article meant to assist someone in understanding a possible injury and offer information on how to treat said injuries. With that said I get a lot of questions about injuries which is why I started my Injuries posts in the first place. Well not I’m getting a lot of questions about recovery time and tricks so here is what I have for TOFP.

The biggest question in terms of recovery for TOFP is how long it will take to recover. However, this question cannot be answered without first asking other questions. It helps to determine if there are inflammatory cells present on the tendon (tendonitis). If there are no inflammatory cells present then the injury will be tendonosis. This is important because it determines the length and severity of the injury. The problem is that inflammatory cells can usually only be seen with a microscope, and that can only be done with surgery. Since the average person with tendon pain is not going to go under the knife to find out exactly what is causing the pain, diagnosing the injury can be a difficult task.
