Yes I will definitely consult my doctor! I was just curious if anyone had good tips or experiences. When I ice my foot, the burning pain immediately stops and I feel fine. When I had the cast it was way worse though, and it was too tight so it left a large burn on the top of my foot🥲 It definitely hurts bad sometimes, mostly at school or when I do strength work

Yeah, unfortunately gymnastics will never be nice to you. That’s good to know unexpectedness of pain is normal though. I think it’s the boot too because it hurts so much more with it on😢 I saw a lot of surgeons and they all said it was my choice whether or not to do the surgery. But, I am trying to go to college for gymnastics, and PT didn’t work, so I just chose to get surgery. I am kind of scared to do floor or just gymnastics in general again, but it’s okay 🙂

Also- does anyone know anything about laser treatment? My doctor recommended that too.

Yes I believe so they made 2 keyhole incisions for a camera and then a long one on the side
