My (blank) hurts...

Anyone eles beat up ,, or just the Geritol gang ..

My right foot has hurt for 2 months now ,,, tender in the middle right aft of the toes .. Went to a foot specialist .. got anti inflamatorys and foot padding instructions .. Think I did it on a pointed rock ..

Also my left knee hurts and is swollen .. Hurts when I cast .. I have this new baseball swing cast that keeps the lure low, to cut threw the wind .. hurts when I do it ..

feel free to whine here ... misery loves company ..

Hi again,

Ever think of trying acupuncture therapy ? My little brother (he is a better fisherman than me, he actually owns a boat). was having foot pain. He tried orthopedic shoes and various excersizes, but that didnt do much. He went to a acupuncture doc and the last time I spoke with him, he said the pain has been reduced. He is 51 and is a truck mechanic, on his feet all day. might be worth a try if nothing else works.
Good luck.

I was feeling the same aches and pains at the end of last year as well but worked out at the gym to support the muscles around the tendons last winter and this year has been great!

Get to the gym over the winter...consider it training for fishing.

Tagger, fozen water bottle under your arch, roll it with your foot for 5 min 2-3x a a day. Stretches everything out.

Thats a great idea .. I'm joining a gym and doing alot of leg stuff for next year,and loosing some weight .. I went out like Auston Powers Fat Bastegde this year .. Waders fit me like a condom . Most weight I ever put on,, last winter .. not ready too let it all go ... ever .

Well if any of you old timers are looking for some help walking out on the rocks at your spots feel free to pm me and I'll meet up with you.I got the bait,coffee and you can fish out of my plugbag so you dont need to carry your own.I'm a Truck mechanic the concrete floors are killing my knees and ankles.The clutches and transmissions are killing my back.My idiot boss and the other drones in the shop are hurting my head.So yeah I guess I'm a mess just not from fishing.

You kids...if it weren't for ibuprofin @ 800mg , I'd be screaming jello. Eddie, for those foot aches, straighten your leg , grab your bir toe, and try to make it slowly touch your kneecap. If you have what I did it'll be cured real quick like that, plantar fasciatis (?) I'm just sore all over, throwing too much weight too often. Haven't felt this beat since High School Football.
