hi luckyman. I don't want to sound too trivial here, but have you considered arch supports or heel supports in your shoes? my colleague is going through something similar and has found that these have really helped with the pain.

also, if you're running be careful that you're wearing suitable running shoes, running on the right surfaces and that you're not jarring your joints.

all the best :o)

Go and get it checked out with your GP.

Sounds like some of the problems I've had with arthritis but could be all sorts of things such as, as said above, not wearing properly supportive or the right footwear and maybe the impact on your feet due to the impact of running.

Remember to buy the right running shoes for the right surfaces you're running on.

hi, have been talking to my mum who has exactly those same symptons. she has oesteo-arthritis (not sure if spelt right)... she also gets swollen akles if she stands for too long. Please get a second opinion on your symptons or ask to be referred to an Arthritic doctor because my mum also got wrongly diagnosed in the first stages. Good luck.
