Help me with my cleat problem?

I am a 14 year old catcher for my freshman high school baseball team. Last year was the first year that I used metal spikes. I had Under Armour spikes. Size 13. During the games I would get this horrible pain in the ball of my right foot. It felt like the spike on the inside edge of the right cleat was pushing up into my foot. I tried putting insoles in the shoes, and it helped for the first 30 mins. of one practice. This year I got Mizuno cleats and they feel a little bit uncomfortable in the same way. I had thought that it was just the shoes, but now I don't know what to think. All I know is that I don't want that pain again. Does anyone know of anything that I can do to keep the pain away? Thank you so much!

Well first you could maybe go to a store that sells you the cleats or go to the store you bought the cleats at and ask them what the pain could've been caused by.I also have a strategy that may give you the solution to your problem.Try getting a bigger size or just you know fight it off.Im really sorry if none of these work, but I will wish you a Good Luck.Good luck!Lol.
Reply:Assuming your shoes fit, you may have a foot problem that should be treated by a doctor. When you are home, take a golf ball or baseball and roll it under your shoeless foot. That helps ease strains in your arch, which could be what causes your ball of the foot problem.
Reply:Unfortunately you have a problem that alot of baseball players deal with. Your foot problem is something that might not go away.. I stopped wearing metal cleats for the same problem but I didn't develope the pain until later on in life..I was in my late 20s when it started happening. I wear addidas 3 in 1 interchangeable cleats now and I don't suffer from much pain.. You can switch them from turf to metal or plastic. Mizuno has some rubber soled cleats that are very comfortable...
Reply:Do you have the pain only when in spikes? Try getting into a catcher's "squat" in your regular sneakers. Do some game-related excercises like jumping up into a throwing position or shifting over to block an imaginary ball heading wide of the zone. If you have the same pain after 20 to 30 minutes, you might actually have a foot problem, not a shoe problem.





It could be your arches or even an undetected stress-fracture. In any case, you might want to get referred to a podiatrist with sports-medicine experience. If it medical, he can treat you. If it's not, he could probably recommend higher quality inserts or different types of shoes that could help.
