Is jogging on concrete cement safe?

Yes, it could be due to the hard ground. But it depends on your running style, age, body weight (being overweight or so) or condition (some old injury which has exacerbated). It is a common problem and can be cured easily. Please stop jogging to avoid putting undue strain on your feet for some time and consult an orthopedic surgeon for remedies. Applying ice pack is a home remedy but only when the injury is was suffered less than 72 hours back. After this time period, applying heat to the affected part is generally recommended. In any case, the orthopedic surgeon is the best judge to ensure the extent of the injury.

Hernia is a possibility. If you have flat feet and advancing age, jogging on cement/ concrete surface is a strict no-no. Mild pain in feet is definitely attributable to this jogging track. I speak from a very long experience.Good shoes will only delay the inevitable.Look for a different track.
