Is it okay to run before I get MRI of plantar plate sprain?

I often get questions from runners and this is actually a common one that I get from runners when they have either enrolled in the plantar plate sprain treatment course for runners, or if they've signed up to do an individual webcam consultation. Everybody seems to think that an MRI will give you a crystal clear image of what's going on inside your body and in some sense, that's true. It is amazing, the amount of detail you can get when you get an MRI. However, you have to remember that the plantar plate ligament is a very small structure and when you get an MRI, it doesn't necessarily show everything. Is it okay to run before I get an MRI of a plantar plate sprain? That's a great question and that's what we're talking about today on Doc On The Run Podcast.
