Hello!
I just finished the Camino Frances and it was incredible! Everything I´d hoped and more. I had my fair share of physical woes through out and especially in the last week and a half with the decline coming down from O´Cebreiro and after. Because of all of the downhill action my ankles, achiles and knees are really bothering me (even after a few days with no walking after Finisterre) and I´m curious what to do if this persists.
When I get home, who should I see? A Podiatrist? Physical Therapist? Just regular PCP? Any suggestions would be most welcome and I´d also love to hear any suggestions on how to help myself in the meantime. I´m currently starting my day by stretching the feet and ankles and applying ibuprofen cream.
Thank you!
Joan
