After running seven miles on a treadmill yesterday (sunday 4/3/01) i developed a pain along lower outer edge of my right foot. from viewing a picture of anatomy of foot pain seems to be located around a where calcaneus cuboid bones meet. pain has increased in intensity all day today leaving me a severe limp. please advise on a cause cse of treatment. thank

First, never run long distances on a treadmill. This will help prevent you from injuring your foot in the future. Hopefully you just strained the ligaments around that joint. However, if the pain is still very bad, you have to be concerned about a stress fracture. Therefore, if you are still experiencng pain, you should see a podiatrist as soon as possible to be properly diagnosed and treated. Good luck and please write back if you have any further questions.
