Foot Problems
Foot Solutions has the right products to help treat foot problems
Most of the population will experience foot problems at some point during their life's journey. Keep in mind that the foot bears the entire weight of the body and is our foundation. Some foot problems can be difficult to recognize (always consult with a medical professional for diagnosis) because the foot is so unique and has so many parts. At Foot Solutions we want you to understand how your foot can be injured and how to prevent it.
some common foot problems are:
plantar fascitiis
Plantar Fasciitis is an inflammation caused by excessive stretching of the plantar fascia attaching at the bottom of the heel bone and extending to the forefoot.
heel spurs
A heel spur develops as an abnormal growth of the heel bone. Calcium deposits form when the plantar fascia pulls away from the heel area, causing a bony protrusion, or heel spur to develop.
bunions
A bunion is a prominent bump on the inside of the foot around the big toe joint. This bump is actually a bone protruding towards the inside of the foot.
other significant foot problems:
achilles tendonitis
Achilles Tendonitis causes inflammation and degeneration of the achilles tendon. The achilles tendon is the large tendon located in the back of the leg that inserts into the heel.
arch pain
Arch pain (often referred to as arch strain) refers to an inflammation and/or burning sensation at the arch of the foot.
calluses
Callus formation is an accumulation of dead skin cells that harden and thicken over an area of the foot.
hammer toes
A hammer toe is a toe that is contracted at the middle joint in the toe, and can lead to severe pressure and pain.
metatarsalgia
Metatarsalgia is a general term used to denote a painful foot condition in the ball-of-the-foot.
mortons neuroma
Morton's Neuroma is a common foot problem associated with pain, swelling and/or an inflammation of a nerve, usually at the ball-of-the-foot between the 3rd and 4th toes.
mortons toe
Morton's Toe is a common forefoot disorder where the second toe is longer than the Big Toe.
overlapping toes
Overlapping toes can occur in any of the toes and can cause extreme irritation if not corrected.
tailor's bunions
A Tailor's Bunion is a prominent bump on the outside of the foot around the little toe joint. This bump is actually a bone protruding towards the inside of the foot.
