I just got off a telemedicine call with an injured runner who has pain and swelling in her foot. We were on a recovering runner coaching call talking about all of the little things that can help you recover and heal faster. 

During our discussion she asked a great question. She kind of laughed and said she was confused about something as simple as going up the flight of stairs to her bedroom. 

How do I go up steps when my foot is painful? Do I start with my good foot or my bad foot?

Today on the Doc On The Run Podcast we’re talking about how to go up stairs when you are recovering from a running injury.
