Foot Pain Treatments In Cardiff
Most of us take our feet for granted without realising just how vital they are in everything we do. When something goes wrong and we experience foot pain, we suddenly realise that our daily lives are turned upside down if our feet aren’t healthy.
Pain in the feet is something we’re nearly all likely to experience at some point in our lives. It is often caused by ill-fitting shoes that force the feet into unnatural positions.
Each foot is complex, with 26 bones, 33 joints, and more than 120 muscles, nerves and ligaments. Our feet serve to support our body weight, propel our legs, maintain our balance, and act as a shock absorber to protect the spine. That is a lot of stress and strain for one boday part.
How Does It Start?
On any given day, most of us will walk and stand for periods of time, climb stairs, and take exercise. All of these things can have a heavy impact. It should not be surprising then, that so many of us experience problems with out feet at some point.
Other factors that can influence our feet are general health, body weight, diet and exercise habits, and biomechanics. Additionally, other areas of the body can impact on our feet, such as problems with any part of our back, hips or knees.
Usual Areas Of Foot Pain
Pain usually occurs in the toes, balls, or heels of our feet:
• Toe problems are most commonly caused by shoes that don’t fit properly.
• The balls of the feet can give us pain originating in the metatarsal and sesamoid bones.
• Heels can cause pain to extend across the soles of the feet to the balls, a condition known as Plantar Fasciitis.
There are, of course, other causes of foot pain. It is easy to think that you discovered the cause of a foot problem. However, treating the root cause of such pain is frequently an area that requires professional help.
