munchkin16 Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 I'm supposed to have ballet tonight but the inside of my arch is hurting. Normally I would dance anyway but the creaking whispery sound it makes when I move is worrying me... I don't want to do more damage. Is it safe to dance or not? Any advice please!

Fiz Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Munchkin, if you have the slightest doubt, don't do it! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drdance Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Hi Munchkin, you probably shouldn't, especially if it hurts when you're moving or weightbearing. One day off won't hurt your foot as much as dancing on it might. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anjuli_Bai Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Fiz is correct - and I agree! Also - check your shoes - including your street shoes - and make sure they are supportive. If pain lasts more than a couple of days have it checked out. The entire mechanism of the foot is rather delicately made with lots of small bones and connections and it not only has to bear your weight also has to move when you walk.

munchkin16 Posted May 1, 2014 Author Share Posted May 1, 2014 Thank you all for your quick replies, it doesn't hurt currently but I'm not going to risk it. It's been a month since my last class and I really want to go but I just realised I need an interview outfit for tomorrow so last minute shopping is forcing me to be sensible! My shoes are normally supportive but I will check, thank you everyone for your help 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
