Extremely painful feet and ankle in Karate?

[erickeller2]

Well I am 23. I have a back condition called osteo-arthritis. I haven't been very active the past few years but I am starting to become more active. I started working out regularly in the gym about 6 months ago. When I was on the treadmill or the bike my ankles became very painful and started to burn. I eventually had to stop working out because it just became worse. Well now I am in Karate class. Now it's not just my ankles but my feet are extremely sore also.. We have class every Tuesday for 3 hours. I really want to keep this class and I hope anything isn't wrong with me because I already have enough trouble as it is with my back pain. What could it be?
I had an MRI when I was 18. They said that I had it.

Osteoarthritis at 23?!? Are you sure about this diagnosis? Did you get a second opinion?

A doctor would know more, but osteoarthritis at such a young age usually comes from joint injuries and even then it usually shows up much later in life. You really need to get a second opinion if you have not done so.
