Doctor. Do I have foot COVID?

[Knoxtnhorn 6262]

I have something wrong with my left foot.  For the life of me, I cannot figure out the cause.

Location: Inside arch, left foot to just above the inside ball of my ankle and across the top of my foot where it connects to my shin.

Symptoms: This is where it gets weird.  There is no noticeable swelling.  There is no noticeable discoloration of the skin.  It's only slightly tender when pressed.  HOWEVER, any type of rubbing/friction hurts like absolute hell.  I know this term is outdated but, it feels like an Indian Burn/Rub any time something moves across it.  For example, when pulling off my shoe.  This morning, I was wearing boots and the end of my foot got caught under a log.  The stretching it cause when I lifted my foot had me screaming like a banshee.  It's odd that I can press on it pretty deeply w/o much of an issues, but pulling off a sock the wrong way feels like a hornet sting.  This has been an issue for a few months now.  I'm guessing it's some sort of nerve thing.  Anyone?

Edit:  Forgot to add. The pain is under the skin.  It's not a rash, burn, or abrasion of any kind.

Sounds like it might be a variation on plantar fasciitis.  Need to stretch that shit out.

Might try rolling your foot around a frozen bottle of water (and the bottle on the parts of your foot you can't roll).

I've had plantar before.  That was on my sole.  This is the side of my foot up and over the top.

Foot herpes is a thing. Where have you been sticking yours?

Sounds like anterior tibialis tendonitis or possibly tarsal syndrome. . . . Or herpes.

Thanks.  I'm not sure it's either.  It's not a bone or ligament injury.  The pain is just below the surface of the skin.  Again, if feels as if someone has taken both hands - at the bottom of my leg at the foot joint - and twisted in opposite directions.  What's odd is that it doesn't hurt to walk or put pressure on the area; just pain when something presses down and rubs against it - i.e. taking off a shoe.  I'll go with foot herpes for now.

Could be. You can get shingles without a rash that is still painful.

Maybe you’re just fat. That has to be hard on the feet

So it's an Indian Rope Burn, but no red skin? Interesting.

That's "indigenous people burn".

That might be it. Would explain the symptoms being so odd.  I didn't think about that due to the location.

When moving pressure is applied, it feels like a skin burn, but subcutaneous; not on the surface.
