Feet feet horrible feet

[SueAppleRun]

Blisters, agony, no running until they heal, so fed up I’ve had 3 months clear feet and now they are gross again, i suspect another course of antibiotics

So for everyone who can and does run over the next few days have fun in the sun and run for me

Sorry for you, I know that you have been enjoying your running, then that happens, 😂I will run my 6th parkrun for you WillowandSola Sola on Saturday. 😊🏃

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to AlMorr]

Thank you, I’m hopeful of being able to run Saturday but last time this happened I had 5 weeks off work and 5 weeks off running hopefully caught it before it gets that bad this time

Run well my friend

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate10 in reply to SueAppleRun]

Now only run this Saturday if your blisters have completely gone, otherwise you will be in agony running, perhaps you could go and get a gait analysis and buy the recommended shoes.

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to AlMorr]

Nah it’s psoriasis

[Buddy34 Graduate10]

That's a shame. Are you prone to getting blisters ?😊

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to Buddy34]

[Buddy34 Graduate10 in reply to SueAppleRun]

Ok. Hope you get sorted soon 😊

[Annieapple Administrator]

So sad for you! Must be very frustrating! Hope they heal soon xx

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to Annieapple]

drives me mad

[backintime Graduate10]

Yikes...that sounds horrible and painful. Were they caused by running or are you just prone ?

Wishing you fast blister healing.

psoriasis flare up they get like this every couple months

[GoGo_JoJo Graduate10]

Have you tried adding turmeric to your diet? Check out the Food Hospital episode with the lad with awful psoriasis, in 12 weeks he was literally psoriasis free!

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to GoGo_JoJo]

Thank you I might try the specialists at the skin clinic are doing their best but my immune system is up the creek

[misswobble Graduate10]

I have recently been diagnosed with guttate psoriasis Maybe that’s why I’m blister prone 🙄

You have my sympathy. It’s horrible 🙁

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to misswobble]

It might be you too have my sympathy mine is pustular feet and hands

[Cosmo501]

That sounds terribly painful and frustrating. Wishing you a speedy recovery and return to happy running soon xx

[Run46 Graduate10]

Oh bless you, that sounds both unpleasant and incredibly frustrating! Hope this flare up is mild and quickly remedied 🤞xx

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to Run46]

Thank you, antibiotics will get rid of the infection and the psoriasis will fade for a while

[limberlou Graduate10]

My dad suffered with psoriasis on his hands and feet for years so I sympathise. I remember him trying everything under the sun with varying success.

He was sleeping, at one point, with cream in his hands and feet and poly bags and gloves on. Mum said he used to rustle when he turned over, poor thing.

He had silver nitrate injections at one point which helped for a while. And his hands got better when he had a cream from the vets to put on his dogs leg. Vetnovate ( which I suspect is Betnovate in doggy form).

He also found when he swam in the sea it helped his skin too. Must be hell trying to run with it. Poor you 💕

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to limberlou]

Oh thank you, that’s the first person i’ve heard had this one apart from the so called magic cures from the internet

I have betnovate and some drugs but it still flares every couple of months and when I’m prone to blisters that get infected but antibiotics will clear that in a few days

[MuddledGardener Graduate10]

Hope your blisters heal soon! Go gently! Xx

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to MuddledGardener]

Thank you, I have been looking out for your posts are you still resting? you were such an inspiration when it was tough thank you

[MuddledGardener Graduate10 in reply to SueAppleRun]

Aww, thank you! That means a lot to me! 😍

[Coddfish Graduate10]

That sounds really difficult. Hope your flare up settles.

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to Coddfish]

Thank you

[davelinks Graduate10]

Sorry to hear that, I remember my dad having flare ups of that in the 1960s & 70s on his lower leg & hands..horrible, luckily it did go away for good...

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to davelinks]

That’s good to hear

[Hidden]

You could try compeed plasters when you are running, they might help with those blisters.

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to Hidden]

Have done thanks but they will heal quickly now

[Hidden in reply to SueAppleRun]

Stick them on if you think you feel a blister developing so that they protect that part of your foot. Don't wait until you have already got the blister it's to late then. Compeed is supposed to help prevent blisters.
