Changes

The pain I experienced included the Plantar Fascia, but also involved pain and swelling of the [[Muscle|muscles ]] of the arch of the foot ([[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abductor_hallucis_muscle abductor halluces]], [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flexor_digitorum_brevis_muscle flexor digitorum brevis]]). [[Stretching]] the arch and toes upward caused pain in the Plantar Fascia; the push up position became problematic as it involves that stretch. Flexing my toes caused pain under the arch, and the exercise of scrunching up a towel with your toes was difficult. The toes also lacked flexing strength when compared with my right foot.
