Causes Of A Painful Foot, Ankle Pain & Heel Pain
Foot pain, ankle pain, heel pain, and foot discomfort are fast becoming regular health issues for many. Your body is an interconnected system of functional parts. The support structure, which holds everything together, comprises bones, muscles, tendons, and ligaments.
When the foot is under excessive stress, the small bones, muscles, ligaments can get irritated and cause foot pain. Even if you don’t get foot pain, they may be contributing to your overall postural balance. It’s not too surprising to learn, therefore, that by the age of twenty, nearly 80% of the population have some foot pain or foot problem. And, by age forty, almost everyone does. Please don’t ignore your heel pain or foot pain; we can help.
CSC’s chiropractors in Malaysia use the terms plantar fasciitis and heel spur interchangeably to refer to heel pain. There are many structures attached to the heel bone (calcaneus). The two structures primarily associated with heel pain are the plantar fascia (a band of connective tissue along the bottom of the foot that supports the arch) and the small collection of bones in the midfoot known as the arch.
Typically in walking, the arch starts to flatten as the foot absorbs the weight of the body.
The Arches Of The Foot And Foot Problems
Contrary to the common belief, the foot has three arches:
- The metatarsal arch is located at the-ball-of-the-foot.
- The “lateral longitudinal arch.” The lateral longitudinal arch is along the outer or most lateral aspect of your foot.
- The “medial arch” or the “Arch” is referred to by most. The medial arch is elevated higher than the rest. Collectively these three arches allow for motion and function.
Pain-in-arch-of-foot and pain-in-sole-of-foot are linked to problems related to the metatarsal arch, lateral longitudinal arch, and the medial arch (the true arch of the foot.
Healthy for arches accomplish movements effortlessly. Excessive exercise and occupations that require people to spend a lot of time on their feet may stretch these structures beyond their limits. Once the muscles, ligaments, and joints are stressed, it leads to misalignments. The arch of the foot is a common site for misalignments. When the arch bones are misalignments (out of place), it causes further stretching of the soft tissue, causing pain-in-sole-of-foot as well as pain-in-arch-of-foot. The continued stress and stretching of the soft tissue can lead to muscle tears and bone spurs.
Bone spurs on the heel occur when the fibrous band of tissue at the bottom of the foot ( plantar fascia) tenses up, leading to the plantar fascia’s calcification (heel spur). Another form of heel spur is the Achilles heel spur. The Achilles heel spur happens when the Achilles tendon calcifies at the attachment point on the back of your heal-bone, leading to an Achilles heel. The Achilles heel and calcaneal bone spur are the main cause of pain-in-heel-of-foot. The plantar fascia and the Achilles’ tendon calcify in response to repeated stresses placed on these tendons.
Exessive stress on a tendon is the leading cause of tendonitis. Tendonitis is a treatable condition caused by inflammation of tendons. A bone spur usually appears on x-ray as a fishhook-shaped structure, often with sharp edges. This sharp-edged deformity can irritate the nerves-in-the-heel and, combined with the strained muscles, causes pain-in-heel-of-foot.
Foot Pain & Pain In Heel Of Foot: Prevention & Treatments
Prevention is essential because once symptoms develop, treatment often necessitates weeks or months of recuperation. To prevent sports injuries, heel pain, wear shoes that provide proper support. People who wear dress shoes should invest in a pair that gives adequate support. Brand names and high prices do not guarantee a good fit. A quality dress-shoe should not bend easily in the mid-foot at the arch. If it does, it will not provide enough support to maintain the arch when walking. Proper custom-made orthotics may be required to assist in stabilizing your feet.
Remember that your foot is the foundation of the body. Those who take care of their feet are more active and much healthier. So, take our advice and do not ignore your feet. Your health and your wellbeing depend on it. A healthy life is an active life, and you cannot have an active life unless you have healthy feet.
So, to stay healthy, fix small issues in the feet before they become major ones later: Leading to Pain In Heel Of Foot.
