Question

What can be done when your feet are hurt especially hills after running several miles on road sides wearing s?

Answer 1

If your feet are hurting, just relax. Lie down for awhile... it would help a LOT

Answer 2

Difficult to diagnose your problem with such little info. It could be you are doing too much too soon, or your shoes aren't suitable for the training you are doing, or your shoes need to be replaced, or your achillies/calf complex is too tight and needs to be stretched to take the pressure off your plantar fascia (foot bottom).  It could also be other concerns depending on your workout, condition, and physical history.

Answer 3

There are many things that could be done for this problem. One possible issue is that you don't have shoes that are suitable for you. You should also make sure to stretch before and after you run. You also should do a half-mile cooldown after every run. If they are hurting real badly after a run than you could soak your feet or just relax. I hope this info helps you with your problem.

Answer 4

After your run, get a bucket big enough to fit your feet in comfortably (or use your bathtub), add really cold water and some ice in it and soak your feet in it for at least 10-15minutes, 3X.  Take some advil.  This will relieve any soreness and swelling.  Dry and massage your feet.  

Check your runners, is it time for new runners?  If so, go to a specialty running store and get fitted for proper shoes according to your foot type, gait, pronation, etc.  

When you run up hills, run in small strides with your back straight aligned with your hips, shoulders relaxed, looking straight ahead.   Careful on the roadsides the camber (sloped sides of the road) can be hard on your ankles.  Do ankle strengthening exercises to keep your feet strong.

1. sit on the chair and put a towel on the floor in front of your feet and using your toes, bring in the towel.  Repeat 10X/day on both feet.

2. Stand on the edge of a stair with the ball of your feet (holding on to the railing) and raise your heels gently and as high as you can go and hold for 10 -20 seconds, then gently lower your heels as low as you can go and hold for 10-20 seconds, repeat 6X/day.

Answer 5

If you are hurt your body is trying to tell you something. Just take a bit of time off. I would say if your foot is still hurting in 5-7 days go see a Dr. Good luck
