The needle and the damage done

So today I went for my cortisone infiltration to help eliminate the bursitis  in my heel. The doctor who performed the intervention, having spoken to the sports doc that I saw last week, was much more conservative about the recovery time, and told me not to run for at least the next month  or so until I have seen him again and everything has healed - otherwise there is a risk that I may rupture the tendon. 


The last time that I didn't run for a month was probably 30 years ago., so think that the next month might be somewhat challenging. 


The intervention was not too painful. And the service at the hospital was brill as always.
