Common Causes Of Foot Pain

I love wearing heels but i can never wear them for long. I know how to balance in them and walk perfectly fine without any problems. Its just that when i wear them for more then a couple of hours my feet feel terrible and if i wear them for longer i get this bubble thing under my foot or a blister. I know people say when you buy a new shoe u have to break into it n the first few times it kills to wear them. Is that true for heels as well?

Once you’ve seen progress with that exercise, find a golf ball, it doesn’t matter the condition. Place the ball on the floor and cup the ball in front of the ball of the foot where the toes attach. Begin to place pressure on the golf ball, and roll it from side to side. This is most easily done by pivoting on the heel. Do not allow the golf ball to go under the longitudinal arch area. Gradually increasing pressure on the ball will break up old adhesions, strengthen the transverse arch muscles and straighten the toes. ball of foot pain exercises

Foot deformities. The excess sugar in circulation can deposit in tissues and joints and lead to foot deformation. Diabetics may see changes in their foot structure or feel pain with motion. In very serious cases, the foot develops Charcot’s foot. In this instance, the bones in the foot are actually being destroyed. The deformity is often described as the foot becoming a” bag of bones.” These deformations change how forces are applied across the foot. Normally, when walking, weight is nearly evenly distributed across your foot, deformations cause increases in pressure at certain areas. This facilitates tissue break down

Some problems can be a little difficult to diagnose accurately even with tests such as an x-ray. Stress fractures are a good example. These tiny cracks in the bone can be a source of considerable pain, yet an X-ray is not sensitive enough to pick up the small cracks, certainly not before the healing process is well underway. Even if a stress fracture is suspected, an x-ray is often required usually more to rule out other problems than to get concrete proof of the problem. This type of injury is often diagnosed by a process of elimination, a case history and a physical examination.
