An interesting runner called me for a second opinion. He had a couple of things going on that created a pretty confusing picture.
He had a plantar plate sprains (at least he was told he had plantar plate injuries) because his MRI showed evidence of injuries to the plantar plate ligaments of toes two, three, and four.
He also had some nerve type symptoms. But on the bottom of the foot, he also had this very interesting ridge of callus.
So what was REALLY causing all of his trouble when he ran?
