: A year ago I started a walking program and my foot began to hurt. I stopped to let it get better, but it hasn't. It hurts at the back of my foot, behind the ankle and down both sides to my heel. I went to a foot doctor, he did an MRI and didn't find anything. He said I needed physical therapy, but I can't afford to go. When I get up in the mornings, I have to be sure to stretch my foot or I hobble around in pain. I want to start weightlifting, but I'm not sure how to proceed so I don't reinjure my foot. Any suggestions? I would sure appreciate some.
