ConstanzaElisabeth Posted August 18, 2004 Report Share Posted August 18, 2004 Ive been off ballet for a couple of weeks and recently have been having problems with my releve, when im just dancing around the house. when i am on a high demi pointe the second toe joint (next to big toe, the base joint) hurts and feels tight, like it needs to pop or something. i am worried that when i go back to class in a week i will have even more problems with this because it has been getting worse. what might be causing this, and how can i help it?

Administrators Victoria Leigh Posted August 18, 2004 Administrators Report Share Posted August 18, 2004 Not sure Constanza, but I suppose it could be any number of things, like a bruised metatarsal, the bunion joint inflammed, a strained ligament, etc. I think it sounds like you need to see either an orthopedic doctor or a podiatrist and get a diagnosis.
