Anyone ever had an issue like this? Would appreciate any advice.
I've started to have a sharp pain in my left achilles, but only when I'm wearing shoes. It feels a little like wearing shoes that are scraping or poking against the area, except it's actually been worst when wearing the Nike Free 3.0 Flyknits, which basically have nothing back there except cloth. I can barely walk around in those at this point.
I've started to wear some of my older Nike frees, which actually have some support, and it feels better, but is still a little painful. (I'm not a sneakerhead like most of you all, and I actually don't even know that many shoes—plus they're almost all low tops).
The funny thing is that it feels completely fine when I'm barefoot, even though it's worst in the shoes I have that are closest to barefoot. Can't figure it out.
In terms of activity I do crossfit, not a ton of running but did do a fair amount of it the other day soon before it flared up. Still, I didn't feel any pain during or immediately after the workout, when I was wearing running shoes that are less painful. I'm not sure if it's from exercise, the shoes I'm wearing, or what... And how to proceed.
Right now I have it iced and elevated, even though it feels absolutely fine walking around at home without shoes on. Damn shame because I love those flyknit shoes, too.
