Oh, my pain is not nearly that bad. But the scratch did throb all night that day.

I get weird feelings on my ankles sometimes, like a bug is crawling there. But I can wear socks (but I don't often), and long pants with no problem, so far. That ankle also had a spider bite several years ago that was quite awful. It hurt for 3 months after even!
So I tend to accept that area as somehow damaged.

I don't have nearly the burning anymore or pain walking, and consider myself very lucky now. I cannot have a tight shoe or tight lace on that foot however, over that scar...because it WILL start to throb.

I guess one is supposed to slowly desensitize the area by taking different textures like a cotton ball etc. This is hard though when the pain is so high.
