We all know that exercise is good for us. In fact, it is recommended that you exercise at least a few times each week. However, with exercise, there comes a chance of injury. This is especially true when a person is adding in more difficult exercise routines.
This additional stress can cause the muscles and even the bones in the body to react. Pain in the feet is quite common among runners and dancers. This is because of the pressure that is put on the feet during these movements. Any type of additional workout that an athlete does may cause an injury to the foot.
When this occurs during exercise a person should stop what they are doing and rest the legs and feet as much as possible. Icing the area and resting are the two best options for treating metatarsalgia when it occurs during exercise as rest is the only way for the area to properly heal.
