The majority of foot pain is due to a lack of proper support or inappropriate footwear. Foot pain can originate from points of undue pressure or irritation from footwear causing the growth of corns and calluses or aggravation of the Hallux Valgus (at the first toe), says Dr Renny Edelson DC. Shoes that are too tight may also cause compression of the metatarsals (long bones in the foot) or injury to the toenails. Excess mobility of the foot and not enough support can be a cause of plantar fasciitis which is often blamed for foot pain. Ankle sprains are common accidents that cause foot pain in FL. The usual type of ankle sprain is plantar flexion with inversion.
With foot pain treatment, it is important not only to manage the acute injury but to attempt to prevent future occurrences. Along with it, foot pain treatment at Ocala Chiropractor should ideally include identification of the requirements of a sport or activity and a post-injury rehabilitation program for strict compliance.
Your Ocala chiropractor will manage your foot pain by performing a comprehensive history and examination, as well as orthopaedic and neurological testing and diagnostic xrays to discover the cause. Based on the examination and tests done, your chiropractor will create a plan of management tailored made just for you.
