Should you run through the pain?
Question:I am getting pain in my foot when I run. It works itself out, about half way through. I got new shoes and am running around the track and not on concrete. I did a small marathon few weeks ago and want to continue running, and felt fine but last week I have noticed the pain in the side of left foot.
Any advice?

Depends. There is a difference between pain & soreness. Pain can indicate an injury, in which case you should rest for a few days. The amount of rest time depends on the level of pain.Soreness will feel more like either you need to stretch it or you've simply overworked your foot. In that case, continue running, but tone it down for a few days. Don't run as hard as usual, but don't stop completely.
If the pain becomes unbearable or close to it during a workout, stop the workout. Running through bad pain can make the injury even worse. Pain isn't bad in all ways- it can indicate when it's time to stop & rest.
Finally, take ibeuprofen. This will prevent inflamation & lower the pain level. However DO NOT take the ibeuprofen close to a workout because it will mask any pain you may have had otherwise and you may injur your foot further.

I would seek some sort of medical attention. If not from a doctor, ask a fellow runner who has experienced something similar. Many injuries, or pains, will only get worse if you run on them. However, there are some injuries that are not at risk of getting worse by running through them. Whether or not your particular injury will worsen by running through it, I do not know.How can I fix my trail leg 4 going over high hurdles for girls?
You probably shouldn't run through the pain but instead have it evaluated and then decide if it is something needing dealt with or something that is OK to run on.I ran through the pain for years and now have huge chunks of bone and cartilage in my knee to remind me of that.

I dont think that running thru the pain is the answer. I ran a 5miler race on saturday knowing that I have plantar fasciitis, boy did my foot hurt worse. It was not bad when i ran on the track on wed. But the track is more softer than the road. Now I have more of a setback.

i had that same problem when i first started running (which was like a week ago) what i did was over the weekend my dad bought me some type of shoe insoles like the gellin things and i use them to run and now my foot doesnt cramp. my cramp was in the middle underneath part of my right foot, If yours still does hurt then i would suggest seeing a doctor or a footdoctor if theres one near youWell i have really painful shin splints, and I always run through the pain, but I don't think that's good, because then it'll never get better. If your really concerned, I would see a doctor, or you could just wait it out, and see if it gets better. I hope this helps :)
PLEASE READ THIS
i am 16 years old and last year i found out that i have an accessory novicliar bone in both of my feet. it is a very common thing to have and the pain can be terrible. i broke it last year, and what it is is a tiny bone inside the foot that pushes another bone out, so there is a good sized bump on the inside of both of your feet. i run alot and the pain sometimes that i get when i run is terrible. unfortunately there is nothing for it other than surgery to get the bone removed, but it would be a good thing to get checked out. the pain is always on the inside of my feet, on or around the arch, but in this case you may have broken it cause the pain of the break is not that bad, so i would go to a doctor, may be a stress fracture
