What Causes Pain In The Ball Of The Feet?
I rode 25+ miles on my bike last weekend. Since then, I have had pain in the ball of my foot, made worse by walking (the pushing off motion). It is also sensitive to pressure in some areas, when I touch it. I am wondering if this could be a stress fracture?
