I recently did a consultation with a runner who had gotten a plantar plate injury. He had been getting better by using some of the tricks I teach in the Plantar Plate Course For Runners.
He got better, he was protecting it, he reduced the stress and strain on the ligament, and he got back to running. He was doing great.
But then he had a setback when he went to the synagogue. He was dressed up and wearing some fancy dress shoes, and he started to get plantar plate pain again.
Today on the Doc On The Run Podcast, we're talking about how dress shoes with a long toe box can actually work as a lever against your plantar plate.
