Well at least with snowboarding you get to wear a nice pair of comfy boots

yeah i know lol, but as its putting me off from skiing i thought i might mention it
erm not really pain normally, but when skiing the pain comes. (or basically when i do any sort of exercise) i've only been skiing once since this started and it was really annoying, so i was basically wondering if anyone here knows about this sort of problem?

Sorry to hear about your problem. But you know that this is a snowboarding forum right?

Does the "clicking" cause you pain?

  #1 Bad foot makes skiing a misery  28/03/2008 @ 09:40:55
When i was about 14 (and still growing) my big toe on my right foot started clicking which was really annoying. After a few months I went to a doctor who recommended an osteopath, which I went to. He didnt seem to get my problem, and simply massaged that foot!

If that wasn't a waste of money, then this was: he kinda pulled my left big toe, maybe to exercise/stretch it. Ever since he did that though, my left big toe has clicked! What I want to know is if anyone has had any similar experiences/can suggest whether its his fault my left toe clicked, or if its a coincidence because I was still growing..

Thanks! If I didn't have this skiing would be so much more fun, but maybe i just have to put up with it? i'm not going back to a doctor again after my experience!
