Playing flag football today. I don't know when it happened exactly, but it first started hurting about an hour after we stopped play. Now I can barely walk on it. It's extremely sore on the instep side of my arch and runs through my foot to the topside of my foot around my pinky toe.

That's probably not a very good explanation, but any amateur podiatrists out there that have any idea what I might have done to myself?

It hurts the worst when I rotate my ankle towards the outside.

sounds like you may have tweaked your tibialis anterior. don't put much weight on it and do some foot stretches

Tendon strain.

i've done that in various modes of action and it's not fun. pop some ibuprofen, any swelling will go away. you probably strained a tendon like KG said, possibly lightly sprained the joint and didn't realize it until later

rest it for a day and you'll be fine

It feels better this morning, just a little sore. It's amazing but I've never hurt my foot in all my years of sports. I played four years of three different sports through HS, boxed for 5 years and was a competitive downhill skier and big air snowboarder and instructor for 12 years. Never hurt my foot.

I did something to my foot playing tackle football a few years back. It bent under me and i heard a loud pop. I was sure i was going to look down and see bone jamming out of my shoe. It didnt hurt at the time but an hour later it was swollen and i couldnt walk. Took some ib and iced it and it went away in a few days. You, should be good.

Well I thought it was feeling better but I just walked my dogs and it definitely still hurts like a bitch. I'm sure I'll be fine, it just sucks, I've never hurt my foot. I feel like a vagina.

foot injuries are the worst. i mean there's a reason why athletes can play through tweaked ankles/knees but need a cortisone shot to play through turf toe.

i had sesamoiditis when i was a teenager (pea-sized bones in the ball of your foot get irritated and heal extremely slowly) and it was the most painful injury/condition i've ever had.
