I’ve been diagnosed with extensor tendonitis that is a result of severe over-pronation (structural problems with metatarsals and heel bone - my feet are apparently a total cluster). Hopefully, orthotics will be the long term solution - just got these today. In the short term, the foot doc prescribed Voltaren (4 weeks). I’ve really been laying off the run for the past 5-6 weeks and the pain has continued. I don’t want to unleash the armageddon associated with NSAIDs, but I would really like to get rid of this persistent pain. Any informed opinions on the short term use of Voltaren? Dr. Coggan? Thanks.
ETA: I did do a quick search, but really couldn’t find a discussion of the short term use. If I missed it my apologies.
