If you get a plantar plate sprain, it can take a long time to heal, particularly if you're not paying close attention.
And because of that, many runners get frustrated.
I see 2 responses to that frustration:

2) just ignore it and run on it because it doesn't really hurt that bad.
Both of those are bad ideas with plantar plate injuries in runners.
