I am a 16 year old female soccer player. I broke my foot at the navicular in 6/07 and was in cast and rehab for 3 months. I went back to soccer in Oct and played with pain. In 2/08 I was slide tackled from behind and was diagnosed with a high ankle sprain. The MRI showed a ganglion cyst in the bone, a partial tear in a ligament above my ankle and various other issues. In 4/08 I had the Kidner procedure to remove some bone from my broken foot and to reattach the tendon. I was in a non weight bearing cast for 6 weeks and then had 4 mths of physical therapy. I was released to play again but now I have pain when I switch directions, shoot or push off with my right foot. I had another MRI in 10/08 and the only thing that is showing up now is edema around a posterior prominent os trigonum. The Dr wants to go in a remove the bone but he doesn't think it will fix the pain on the subtalar joint so he is hesitant. I just want to play soccer without pain. I just don't understand how I can have so much pain on the outside of my foot and it doesn't show anything on the MRI. any ideas??
