About a week ago I rolled my foot while power walking (stupid, loose-gravel country roads!). It didn't really hurt at the time and i was able to keep going. But in the last few days the pain has increased - it's on top, to the outside, not the ankle - waking me up at night. What did I do?

    Hey there, I've done similar many times u fortunately .I have weak ligaments/tendons on the toption of my foot and they tear/pull atleast once a year and it actually takes atleast a couple hours for the foot to swell which then causes the uncomfortableness. I use ice wrapped in a flannel and elevate it. If it's not same injury probs just need to rest it :)

    Maybe tendonitis? Layman's terms: tendon in foot injured or sprained. Perhaps a temporary foot brace can help?
