  • Not as Gimp at 20
    I wrote early and after reading these stories, I dedicated myself even harder to pt and made sure I did it almost everyday, even if I could only do 10 minutes of it. I went to one more physical therapists who gave me two more exercises and stretches with seemed to have also helped me. I also got inserts to get a better arch, because I am flat footed so they have helped a lot. So all in all, with inserts, and pt, Ive had considerably less pain. Though I still cant run or do all the same activities I used to, for now I can at least walk without much pain.
