hi Dr Rynne, hope all is well with you. Quick question: i am having a sharp pain about 1 1/2 weeks, its on top of my foot on right side of left foot. i do ride a motorcycle and it is about where the shifter hits me. how long should i wait until i have it checked or xrayed? its a pretty bad pain!
if it were soft tissue injury then your pain should subside or at least decrease in 5- 10 days. but its still a paining a lot even after 1 1/2 week . in my opinion its right time to get a xray of foot .
