I am a middle aged person who is using soccer as way to stay in shape and relieve stress. One month ago I had a large collision with another player with my strong side foot. After an abundance of swelling I visited my physician and was told it was not broken.
I took trhee weeks off. All the swelling was gone, I could run at 95%, and was anxious to get back into playing. My second game back I had another, much smaller collision. The pain is intense once again and I am back to taking time off.
Now that I have written my book. I would like to find a way to give the top and inside of my foot added protection once I start playing again. I have searched all over for a brace/pad that can sit inside a shoe with no luck. I am considering creating my own "foot guard" from foam and possibly plastic.
Can anyone point me in the direction to find such a product or advice on what to use. Keep in mind I am will stay off for enough time for the pain to go away, I just want to make sure the injury does not occur again before the healing is done completly. Every injury I have ever had is never really healed completely when the pain is gone.
Thanks in advance. |
