Fallen/Pulled arch - going to run for the first time since

[PoyeBoy]

I pulled the arch in my left foot 2 weeks ago, I beleive this is also known as a fallen arch. It is extremely painful, I can feel the muscle fibers in my arch being pulled everytime I take a step, it feels as if I have a peice of glass in my arch, I have had these before and just taped them, but this time I decided to take it easy for a while since I already have shin splints and fallen arches can lead to seriously bad shin splints, so hopefully when I run tonite I wont have either, im going to tape my arch tonite just to be safe.

That sounds horrid. Have you seen a doctor, preferably a sports doctor?

ha, its all good now, just needed rest, fyi my arches are very high since I have small compact feet, even in nike which have decent high arch support I think I will get a small insert just to be safe
