I hope you had a great time skating and you met your goals for the weekend. Thanks so much for the information. I have been wrapping my heel in a 'cold' gel pack every night. I will try the ice bucket :| doesn't sound fun, but neither is being in chronic pain. I am giving skating a break for at least a month, until I am confident that I won't reinjur it. I am cycling with some friends - that doesn't seem to irritate my foot...and it allows me to stay active. I want to skate in Atlanta in October...we'll see. Gotta run. Take care and talk to you soon.

Ice bath after activity or anytime it is feeling sore. Put ice water in a bucket and put your foot in it for the four stages, cold, burning, aching, and take it out when it gets numb. I would also recommend eccentric exercises. Below are some links to exercises and a great tip sheet. The one thing you need to do is find a really good technical person to identify why it reoccurs.
Good luck and I hope it heals soon!

The plan is for me to arrive at some point on Thursday, driving up from TX so I can't give any kind of useful time right now. Only can promise I will likely be grumbling "friggin' 65 mph Iowa" for a little while. Am working the morning for RollerBob's booth at the expo but told will be allowed to go out and plan after 3 PM ish.

My bad, my crash at the skills clinic was what NOT to do on skates.
Still coming to St. Paul?
I forget, too many spins on helmet and all, did you order a pair of shorts too? I kind of spaced after dinner that night. ha ha. Who am and I why did I DNA donate on road again?
