A plantar plate sprain happens usually on the bottom of the second toe. It is a little bitty ligament that gets sprained or partially torn.
Most of those runners with a plantar plate injury want to know how long is it going to take to get back to running.
Recently a few runners told me they asked chat GPT, or some AI program to try to figure this out. So, I wanted to tell you what AI told me when I asked this question of "how long can I run after a plantar plate sprain."
