    As somebody who had chronic foot pain for over a year that finally got resolved, let me tell you: please listen to medical professionals! A few days or even a few weeks is nothing compared to half a year to a year of chronic pain and reduced physical activity. Grin and bear it for a little bit now so you aren’t paying for it exponentially later

      Oh, I am. I’m still walking with a crutch, have not been dancing this Sunday, and always wear foot stabilization bandages …

        Good for you and wishing you a speedy recovery :)

        What kind of dancing, if I can ask? I used to teach Lindy Hop and other swing dances. I miss it! Need to get back out there.

          Thank :) Just wish it went faster …

          Ballroom and Latin American, so Waltz, Vienna Waltz, Foxtrott, Tango, Rumba, Jive, ChaChaCha, Disco Fox. Did that originally for 3 years as a kid in school, but haven’t really since, so when I started over with my wife we started in the beginner course. Back then, I also had a stretch of Boogie Woogie and Rock’n’Roll, but neither of those for long.
