Hi all!

I feel down my basement steps on Monday afternoon carrying my Electric skillet down them..Just 3 of them and landed on my tail...

Long story short yesterday I was sore in both ankles, up my legs, my tail and the bottom of my feet...I had a rough night last night with my ankles and feet..now...hand is still sore and my right bottom foot and ankle. If I sit down even for 10 min I cannot hardly walk for about 10 min and then it easies off...sit back down it happens like that again. Not very swollen but just very sore...

What should I do..wait it out for a few days to see if it let up or make a doc appt and go?

I'd see a doc. I waited too long last month after an allergic reaction and it coulda killed me.

My new motto is "If they can make it better, why wait?" I also have a RAD new doc who only charges $50 a visit.

The pain under your heel is probably plantar fasciitis, caused by injuring the tendon under the foot. See your doctor for advice.
