Foot pain is terribly miserable, it's not like you can just sit down all the time. Plus the pain doesn't go away when you do.
I have the same problems with toucansam. And yes the doc. told me too about the therapy with the feet. The stretching, rolling ice bottles under your feet and puttiing a towel under your foot and pulling on the towel toward you.
