Foot Problems: Plantar Fasciitis and Heel Spur Orthotics
An often cited area of foot pain is the heel. One of the causes of heel pain is plantar fasciitis, a condition characterized by a tingling in the heel that is most common during the first steps of the day. A more common way to treat this heel problem is to use night splints or arch supports.
Bone spurs are another source of heel pain. A bone spur is a bone growth that can cause pain as well as pain if it rubs against other bone or tissue. These usually form in the heel area in response to pressure, pressure, or friction, in which case they are often referred to as heel spurs.
A common and simple remedy for a spur foot is adding a heel orthosis or adding padding to your shoes, or you may find it helpful to wear compression stockings designed to relieve heel pain. There are even braces designed for the treatment of bone spurs in the feet.
Foot Problems: Bunions
Bunions are another common foot problem. A bunion, also known as hallux valgus, is a bony lump on the outside of the toe along the joint, caused by a person's big toe being pushed against the big toe next to it.
Wearing shoes that are too narrow is a common cause of bunions, especially high heels. Bunions can also be caused by abnormal bone structure at birth or as a side effect of diabetes or arthritis.
Diabetic foot problems
Foot problems are common side effects of diabetes. Many of these are related to circulation problems, nerve damage or skin changes in the feet caused by diabetes.
Compression socks designed to improve circulation in the foot may help achieve this. ZSZBACE is available in a variety of styles and colors. See more diabetic foot care.
Fracture and Bone Contusion Foot Treatment
Of course, trauma to the foot can lead to fractures or bone contusions. Technically, a bone bruise is a series of small cracks in the bone caused by the force on the foot.
Bone contusion foot treatment usually involves rest and ice, although casting and possibly surgery are often required to repair fractures in the bones of the foot. Recovery from both types of foot injuries may include the use of walking boots or shoes to maintain pressure on the injured bone.
