Any ideas about why there would suddenly be feet problems?
I have never related to the foot issues many of you have described until this week! My ankles fronts are bright red and calloused (Ok the callous has been going for quite a while but small and to be expected, my feet have started sweating in the boots, I have developed a little corn thingy or something painful on my little toe...and my feet generally sting for a while after taking my boots off. My feet look like they have been to battle! This is unusual for me.
I have not changed a thing. I have the same sock type, working on basically the same stuff with the exception of just starting the camel and sit spin...neither that I do well enough to do long enough to be the suspected difference! I am skating generally the same amount of time this week as any other. I tie the boot about the same way and about the same degree of tightness! I really watched how I did it tonight to make sure and came off the ice with this big problem again.
Since you guys are my heroes, I tend to copy things you say you do. One thing I learned since being on the board is that many of you skate in thin nylon type socks or even footed tights. I tried it in my copy cat fashion...but that was the only other time my feet really sweated.I decided to go back to my socks immediately. Except for that day (which was probably 2 months ago)...I have only skated in thin cotton socks with no prior problem!
Would appreciate any thoughts about this! Ouch!
