I have been doing dance since i was 3 going on 4 years old... so I have been dancing for 12 years. Few weeks ago, I have had horrible feet and ankle problems. At the point where I couldn't walk, or even stand. It hurt so bad, I was at the point of crying... Since last Saturday they were a whole lot better and don't hurt as bad. If I walk for a long time, then they do. Just a few minutes ago I asked my mom when dance started again. She just looked at me and said. Your going to do it? I said I want to, and my feet are not going to stop me! even if I am flat footed or not, why do u want me to stop! *started to tear up* and she said she would never say that to me. I know few years ago, she wanted me to stop because of the money. and I was going to, to help us save money. But... Dance is the only thing I love to do. Besides Singing which isn't a thing I would like to stick with. What do you guys think I should do.
1) Stop doing dance forever and just do nothing.
Or
2) Keep doing dance and have a 50/50 chance of my feet getting better, or maybe end up having to have surgery...
I want to choose 2 but I don't also want my feet to get worse.. ;(
PLEASE HELP ME!
Sometimes doing the things u love have consequences. I almost had surgery for playing catcher on my baseball team for 4 years straight, but I risked it and kept going. My knees r weak now but not bad enough to where it affects my walking. So I mean I guess it's worth taking the risk if u really love dancing
