Went to private foot doc today. Main complaint is that my limp is becoming more prominent, left heel pain and left ankle pain and pain when standing for a while, i.e., more than a half hour in both feet etc.
I have SC for Plantar Fasciitis in my right foot, and get 10%.
I told him that I am limping more because of my right foot pain and could that be causing my left heal pain and left ankle pain (stability).
He said it was.
Then he gave me a shot (cortisone)(ouch) in my right foot and a brace for my left ankle to support it moving side to side.
My plan is to file for increase right foot and SC for left foot secondary to right foot, etc.
I may also file for increase (currently 20%, ROM) thoracic/lumbar pain secondary from above ^^^^.
Anyone with experience in this matter?
Or opinion?
Thanks,
Hamslice
