Hi Lucy - We were talking about feet in another thread. Yes, from many of us. And yes, it can sometimes feel like one's foot is being crushed from the top. Horribly painful. We came to the conclusion that icing helped. Icing and also warm water, though not too much 'warm' as warm can exacerbate the inflammation - so advised a physio therapist. Cold was considered best. But again, don't freeze yr tootsies off...
As for 'along the side and throbbing' Yes again from a numer of members. Me included. Mine has been vile for a few years but the along the side bit has calmed down recently (like in the last few days!)
The spondy monster lurks in all kinds of unexpected places, ready to rear, so take care.
