Thank you for such quick response. It does not seem to be an "emergency" by American ER standards. I have pain and swelling in the mid-foot, arch area. I do not believe there was a specific injury, it might be tendinitis of the small joints that are mid-foot. Is ER appropriate for this type of situation?
Also, I have an ad here for FisioConde, Fisioterapia and Podologia; they seem to specialize in foot problems and speak English (I don't speak Spanish). Has anyone heard of them?
THANK YOU!!

hello, I am currently in Leon (started in Saint Jean Pied du Pont) and have discovered I have a foot problem. Can you please recommend medical facility or person. It appears that I have a problem with my tarsometatarsal joint (mid foot). I would like to get it looked at before continuing on. I can walk with pain but thought it would be best to have it checked before leaving Leon. We are staying next to Cathedral. Thank you for quick response.
many good, excellent, replies given on here.
For further use...when I have any medical issues (not immediate emergency), I go to local farmacia. Very helpful.
Not for your case, but for others... they will give on the spot advice what to take, do, or not do, for certain things.
If out of their league they know every hospital, clinic, specialist etc And will advise you where to go for additional help.
The farmacia in Pt De Lima was great! Got great help from them for leg muscle problem.
I recently (2weeks ago) went to the 'clinic' and was referred to Hospital Universitario de Leon for swift evaluation. My knees would require a specialist and the clinic doctor said there was a 2 month wait. My ER doctor was thorough, had X-rays done and can they've provided a translator... so ultimately I learned I was DONE with my first attempt at Camino Frances in Leon. Good Luck and take it easy. Buen Camino.Thank you for such quick response. It does not seem to be an "emergency" by American ER standards. I have pain and swelling in the mid-foot, arch area.

Hope by now you have had the help you need. I'll just put a good word in for Roberto at FisioConde - excellent English; correctly diagnosed that my problem was not lymphedema (as a prior physio in Sahagun told me, and treated as such) but a blood clot and sent me immediately to emergency!Thank you for such quick response.
