Sore Foot Treatment
June 8, 2008 by Tammy · 3 Comments
There are many reasons for sore feet and I can tell you from a personal perspective many of those reasons. Plantar fascitis can be one of the wicked sources of foot pain that can drop you to your knees when you least expect it. The pain of plantar fasciitis is caused by inflammation of the plantar fascia, which is a thick fibrous band running along the bottom of the foot which attaches to the heel and to the ball of the foot. Most commonly the inflammation of plantar fascitis happens at the heel, where the fibrous band attaches to the heel itself. But make no mistake about it, the inflammation can also occur anywhere along the plantar fascia. The sore feet experienced from this malady are a result of the inflammation of that fibrous band.
Other causes of sore feet can be something such as a bunion, a foot corn, a plantar’s wart, a callus, an ingrown toenail, a nail fungus or even a foot ulcer. Many people suffer from one or even a combination of these causes of sore feet.
Fortunately, my sore feet have at times been a combination of these issues and at least not everything at one time. Plantar fascitis, ingrown toenail, nail fungus and of course three fractures have been a part of my foot history, but with the dedicated and sometimes, long suffering care from my primary care physician, my podiatrist and orthopedic surgeon, my sore feet recovered from the acute pain and now I simply just need to determine how best to deal with the chronic pain left behind.
Sore feet, absolutely…how long with it last? Can I truly find relief? I just don’t know.
