    When I sprained my ankle the athletic trainer at work suggested "writing" the alphabet with my toes. This probably isn't appropriate for your foot. What I'm suggesting is that perhaps a visit to an athletic trainer might suggest a therapeutic exercise to get you back to your routine.

    All upper body exercises will be good for your problem, try also abs and leg assisted machene leg abductors, adductors, leg curles, leg extention. On your knees lifting legs behind you or to your sides

    I just sprained my foot, five days ago. I am in a lot of pain...all the way up my leg. X-rays showed no break and no joint displacement.

    I am swollen, sore and now cannot do my walking nor dance routines for at least two weeks. So frustrating.

    Guess it is upper body workouts until I am back on my foot.

    I hear you. I just wish I could find a position where my foot didn't hurt even at rest.
