For the last few months(about 8-10 months) whenver I did certain activities I noticed I'd get a stretching pain in the arch of my foot, but it was sudden and short. Most of these activities were when I had to climb up on roofs for my work, or essentially stretch my foot in an awkard angle. Not a big deal I though, albeit a bit dangerous since when i felt the pain my initial reaction was to pull my foot back... not the best idea on a steep roof ;)
Lately the pain has been becoming more and more frequent. Now it's as common as when I climb stairs I feel the pain.
I also feel this pain when I buy new shoes and I'm breaking them in, after shoes have been quite worn out, etc. It's also been a real treat for driving when I push my foot out and I feel it... :(
Anybody have any thoughts/suggestions on how I can help this? Maybe insoles in my shoes (any suggestions on some good ones?) - Any exercises I can do to strengthen these muscles?
Thanks guys
