chepyl Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 One week before Matthew was born, I started having weird pain in my right foot. It is a sharp shooting pain if I twist my ankle a certain way. I also have pain across the top of my foot and toes. It feels like my skin is being pulled. The foot was slightly swollen. In the hospital, I asked about it and the Dr said I may have sprained it in the last few days of pregnancy and not realized. I have rested and cared for it. It is not better. Now I have the same.pain in my left foot. I think it may be a nerve. I had a pinched nerve in my back after my oldest was born. It caused foot pain and eventually a tingling and numbness of two toes. One trip to the chiropractor and it was all better. Any ideas? The pain is on the outside of my ankle and foot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pegasus Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 I know it sounds weird but you may have cracked/broken a small bone in your foot, especially since it happened late in pregnancy. It can take a long time to heal. Since then, you've probably stressed your other foot by trying to protect your hurt foot. I'm not a medical professional. :tongue_smilie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
