np: Actually sounds more like a neuroma which tends to hurt more when you first get up and the nerve first has to push through the bony canal where it is "hanging up" then feels better as you move around. BTDT! Hope you feel better soon - try taking ibuprofen or aleve until you can see a doctor [ Reply | More

New York City and Special Needs are distinct boards. There isn't a New York City/Special Needs board. So click on both, and update filters, save as default, use my default, and both will always be set when you log on. When you post, you'll need to post specifically to a NYC or SN, or else your post will go to General Topics board. [ Reply | More
