I got my custom orthodics 2 weeks ago. Since I got them my knee pain is gone (over pronation)..Great. I started to have blisters after the first two runs with them but it was just the break in period and is OK now.
It seems that I have now developped some kind of heel+Achille pain. It is not a very sharp pain and it goes on and off during the day. I took it easy during the last 3/4 days and iced a bit.
I have also read conflicting advise on streching when you have achille pain, for instance Galloway's book on running advises strongly against it and I read in some other posts to stretch a lot... So not quite sure what to do there. Normally I stretch quite a bit after running.
Could the pain be due to the orthodics that are not fully broken in yet or should I pay more attention to it ?
Thanks.
