<s>[INST] I have pain in the right side of my right foot around the heel area, it hurts when putting weight on it. I ride horses daily and when i push my heel down in my stirrup it feels like a stabbing pain around this area like something is being stretched around the right part of my heel- could i have sprained this area? [/INST] Hello, As per your history, it may be bone pain or muscle sprain. Please let me know whether she had a history of injury, sprain, heavy weight lifting. For that, you can take tab. motrin. apply diclofenac gel or spray with heating pads. In case of not getting relief, I would suggest you to MRI foot after orthopedic consultation. Do regular physical therapy. avoid barefoot walking. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards, Dr. Shyam B. Kale, General & Family Physician </s>
