nueroma/tendon/muscle problem

I have some type of soft tissue injury in the ball of foot that alos
invloves my 2nd and 3rd toe. I went to see a podiatrist yesterday. The jury
is out on whether it's a nerve problem or a a muscle and or tendon problem.
She says I don't have a stree fracture based on xrays as this has been going
on for 2 months and it would be visible by now.

I guess that's good news. She gave me a cortisone shot put a metatarsal pad
my orthotic and ordered 0 running for 3 weeks.
That's the bad. What's puzzling to me is that she said I can swim or bike
but not use an elliptical machine. That's about all we have at work except
for treadmills. I don't see the problem as long as I keep my feet flat and
don't flex at the ball of my foot.
I have a ski machine at home but I assume she would ban me from that also.

Guess I'll try it and see if it aggravates it, maybe have someone check me
to see if I'm not keeping my foot flat?
