Signs of Overpronation in Feet
Overpronation occurs when the foot and ankle roll too far inward when you walk. This movement strains the muscles, tendons, and ligaments in your feet and legs. As a result, you develop pain, limited movement, and many conditions like shin splints, sprained ankles, and plantar fasciitis.
Why Is There a Bump on the Bottom of My Foot?
A bump on the bottom of your foot can result from a variety of causes, including common warts and calluses, dyshidrotic eczema, cysts, and deformities caused by diabetic nerve damage. These conditions are often painful and interfere with walking. Treatment will vary depending on the underlying cause.
Morton's Neuroma Symptoms and Foot Pain Treatment
Morton's neuroma typically causes a sharp, stabbing foot pain that feels better when you stop walking and massage your foot. A neuroma is a type of nerve tissue growth that can occur in the body. Morton's neuroma most often occurs in the space between your third and fourth toes.
Common Causes of Numbness in Your Feet
Numbness in your feet can develop due to nerve compression, nerve damage, or poor circulation. Additionally, an underlying condition that affects blood flow—like diabetes or sciatica—can cause numbness, pain, tingling, or burning in your feet.
What Causes Pain in the Ball of Your Foot and What Helps?
Metatarsalgia refers to pain in the ball of your foot, the area of the forefoot just below the top of the metatarsal bones in your big toe. Most people feel this sharp pain in the space between their big toe and the arch of the foot.
Long term consequences of Total Ankle Replacement versus Ankle Fusion; a 25 year national population study of 41,000 patients
Definitive and successful treatment of end stage ankle arthritis is either Total Ankle Replacement (TAR) or Ankle Fusion (AF). Both options place patients on an irreversible pathway that risks harm from further surgery.
7 Bunion Exercises to Reduce Pain and Pressure
Bunion exercises can ease the pain caused by bunions, a painful toe joint deformity. You develop a bunion when pressure pushes the big toe toward the second toe. When the top of the toe moves, it forces the bone in the joint at the base of the toe to shift outward.
Signs of a Sprained Ankle vs. Broken Ankle and Treatment Options
A sprained ankle and a broken ankle can cause similar symptoms and even result from similar causes. However, they are very different conditions. A break is a fracture in one of the bones of the ankle, usually the fibula. A sprain is a tear to one or more of the ankle's ligaments, which support the bone.
Predicting surgical site infections after open reduction and internal fixation for ankle fractures
Surgical site infections (SSI) are one of the more severe complications following ankle surgery. It is associated with worse outcomes and re-admissions. Therefore, identification of risk factors is essential. The aim of this study was to identify risk factors for SSI in patients undergoing surgery for ankle fractures.
Endoscopic-Assisted Fibula Reduction With Full Percutaneous Fixation of Ankle Fracture Dislocation
Ankle fracture is one of the most commonly encountered fractures. Open reduction and internal fixation is the gold standard of treatment. However, minimally invasive fixation of ankle fracture is gaining popularity among foot and ankle surgeons as the result of recent advances in ankle arthroscopic techniques. Despite this, there are limited reports on endoscopic assessment of fibula fracture.
