Are you suffering from any of these foot pain conditions?
Strains and Sprains
Sprains of the ankle ligament are a common injury, which can happen when playing a sport, tripping, or strolling along uneven ground. Without proper rehabilitation, the ligament can become stiff and painful, and the muscles around it can lose their coordination and stabilizing ability. Therefore, to prevent future sprains it is essential to provide therapy for scarring and extra stability for the ankle..
Plantar fasciitis
The connective tissues on the bottom of the foot are irritated and inflamed by plantar fasciitis. In addition to flat and fallen arches, tightened calf muscles are often to blame, as well as prolonged standing, poor posture, or inadequate arch support in footwear.
Tendinitis
A chronic and exacerbated condition of the ankle tendons (such as the peroneal and Achilles) can result in pain and inflammation when walking and running.
Tarsal tunnel syndrome
Inflammation of the tibial causes sharp, shooting pains, pins and needles, and burning sensations in the feet.
Arthritis
Osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis are the two most common types of arthritis. Both types are associated with foot and ankle pain. Arthritis can affect people of all ages.
Fractures
A fracture occurs when the bone is subjected to excessive force or trauma, causing a crack or break completely. As a result of running long distances, such as marathons, a breakdown in running mechanics or ill-fitting footwear can result in stress fractures. For foot or ankle fractures to heal properly, weeks of rest may be required
