My right foot has hurt off and on for the last two years on the top of the foot. This pain hurts when I take a step and the foot bends. However this time it has not stopped hurting the last four weeks. I do have planter fasciitis (not active right now) in that foot and I have sprained that ankle many years ago. There is no pain when touching in this area. There is also no swelling. I have had it x-rayed and I do have a bone spur on the bottom of my foot. Nothing else was evident on x-ray. The doctor that X-rayed it said the bone spur would not be the cause of the pain. it should be noted that I have Poly Malaysia rheumatica therefore I am on prednisone. However this pain in my foot began about one and half years before the PMR was diagnosed. I do have an appointment to see an orthopedic doctor but would like to hear your opinion as it will be a while before I will see him.
