This is really helpful to read! For your numbness, where does it start? And how quickly do they go numb?
Today it seemed to really be in my big toes. Last season, it was balls of the feet and middle toes which I've been told is most likely Morton's Neuroma. The edges of both big toes are kinda tender now so I'm wondering if I might need a little more space or if that's going to just cause me to slide around a bit. Really appreciate the tip on the Boot Doc liners, I'm going to go look into those. And completely agree about it being psychological when it comes to the trails. Like I know I can ski it, I just wasn't trusting my feet
Well, @lisamamot and I went into the Ski Monster to check things out today, and both ended up leaving with new hybrid AT boots!!! We both worked with Dylan, one of the owners, and had a great experience. Funny enough, we both tried on multiple different boots, but ended up picking the same ones in the end. I went in skeptical, but I ended up feeling really comfortable that there would be nothing gained from going up to Vermont for the same boots. I will also be bringing in my skis to be remounted with my AT frame bindings for free since I bought a boot there and they’ll cut skins for me, unexpected bonuses.
Stupid me stubbed my toe really good (bad) it's shiny from the cbd arnica on it.. Better get better ASAP . Haven't tried to put a ski boot on... Ugh
Ouch, indeed!It sure is ugly! It hurts in the am. then aspirin helps pain, but having to stand on it most of the day makes my foot swell :-( Fortunately (or not) I have an insanely high pain tolerance especially when skiing is involved. IT"S GOT TO GET BETTER!!!! ASAP!!!!
I got the Cbd/Arnica salve at the Warren Country Store. $$$ but seems to work for pain and I'm putting 'The Rub" arnica ointment on and eating arnica tablets.
My work appointment tomorrow just got cancelled so I'm going to ski Gore tomorrow.
See what happens. I SO WANT TO SKI w/ you all Friday!!!!
