Pretty soon my lower back started killing me (all of this only when running but I have to run for mental health if nothing else) I blamed the back on coddling the heel. The heel no longer hurt but the back was fucking my life up.
Then I remembered hearing all back pain is in your mind- Dr Sarno https://www.barnesandnoble.com/p/hea...SABEgJmn_D_BwE His theory is no one had back pain 100 years ago now half the people can barely walk or work. The cause is your sub-conscious causes pain to keep your conscious brain from dealing with something painful. The answer (the book takes 3 hours to read) is to train your brain to stop. I was to run and when the pain came think about the thing in my life I was trying to avoid dealing with (one of my kids is pretty fucked up- for you- it could be how much you hate your commute and that you do X instead- I dunno- you have to figure your shit out). so anyway, it took me 6 weeks of running through pain, but eventually your teach your brain to stop that shit. Since his initial theory he (and subsequent doctors) has found that pretty much all pain is from this sort thing. Certainly heel pain can be. You all do not know me, but I am the most "eat meds" non-touchy feely hippie dippie person. I would not normally spout off or consider following something like this- but I have been pain free (kid is still fucked up) running every day for the last two years. Almost everyone else I know my age stopped running because of the pain. Fuck that. Quit reading these stupid books and blogs you and Sebby talk about for a few hours and change your damn life. Namaste! |
That's every bit as helpful as Adder's response. I have had plantar fasciitis before. This is not that. It's the back of my heel, not the bottom of the foot.
