Doc means below the 1st metatarsal bone, so you have to put the "sub" at the very beginning of the whole thing (not 1st submetatarsal).
Use a hyphen, sub-1st, because sub- is a prefix not a word.
sub-1st metatarsal

Subject: NWMNMT:Good grief, good grief, good grief..If this is the case, the doctor should also explain
the meaning in an ADDENDUM.
How do you know what the doctor meant? GOOD GRIEF, are you the know-it-all (hyphens must be put here, as it is used as a noun!) on this board? Get over yourself!
Who understands what it means without an explanation?
The MOST obvious is apparently like I understood it:
5 packs in 1 year.
Maybe the doctor really meant this, 5 packs per year, so essentially a nonsmoker.
GOOD GRIEF, get over yourself!

good/well
Subject: good/well
According to Webster's, good as an adjective and standard after verbs like "feel" and "taste". It goes on to say that both "good" and "well" are used to express good health, but "I feel good" may connote good spirits in addition to good health. I was always taught in English class that one feels "good," not well. If you feel well, your fingers are working correctly. Since it says that good and well are both used to express health, perhaps you can take your choice. I would write that he looks good.
