Foot pain

Foot pain, neuroma, metatarsalgia, stress fracture, sesamoiditis

Foot pain can be debilitating, affecting mobility and quality of life. From sharp sensations to persistent aches, understanding the underlying cause is essential for effective management.


Some potential causes of foot pain include: 

Metatarsalgia

Metatarsalgia is a condition characterized by pain and inflammation in the ball of the foot, specifically around the metatarsal bones. It often occurs due to excessive pressure or overuse, leading to inflammation of the soft tissues in the forefoot. 

Neuroma

A neuroma is a thickening of the tissue around one of the nerves leading to the toes. This condition can cause sharp, burning pain in the forefoot, often likened to the feeling of standing on a pebble or a balled up sock.  Feelings of numbness or tingling are also common with this pathology.

Sesamoiditis

Sesamoiditis is inflammation of the sesamoid bones, which are small, pea-shaped bones located underneath the big toe joint. Overuse, repetitive stress, or trauma to the forefoot can lead to sesamoiditis, causing pain and tenderness, particularly when weight-bearing on the ball of the foot. 

stress fractures

Stress fractures are tiny cracks in bones caused by repetitive stress or overuse. Metatarsal stress fractures commonly occur in athletes or individuals who engage in high-impact activities, leading to localized pain and swelling.

If you're experiencing persistent or severe foot pain, it's crucial to seek professional help for proper diagnosis and treatment.
