Woman are three times more likely to be impacted by a bunion than a male. A bunion occurs when the big toe moves towards the second toe – sometimes, but not always causing pain. Untreated, a bunion can progress to the point of irreversible joint damage.

Kids are competitors. All ball sports require a lot of high intensity running, which means their growing bones and muscles are subjected to high levels of force. It is safe to say that most competitive athletes are at risk of developing either acute or chronic problems.

Children with “flat feet” (pronated feet) became more fatigued or had their performance impacted compared to children with “normal arches”.

Running injuries impact the active population every single day. Here are a couple of the common foot problems your podiatrist treats.

Achilles Tendonitis is the painful inflammation of the ‘heel cord’ due to microtears within the structure often due to poor conditioning.

Plantar Fasciitis is the inflammation of the ‘arch’. It is the most common cause of heel and arch pain, often due to weakened feet and uncontrolled biomechanics

Intermetatarsal Bursitis is the inflammation of a small fluid filled sac that lies between the toes. This could be due to a collapsed transmetatarsal arch or an over pronated foot.

Extensor Tendonitis is the inflammation of the extensor tendons which run along the top of the foot. It is an overuse injury which is common in runners.

If you think this could be you, contact our friendly staff for help at www.reformpodiatry.com.au

Pronation in a controlled manner is normal and essential for normal foot function and shock absorption. A Neutral foot will pronate (roll in) and supinate (roll out) 'within normal limits'.

Overpronation, obvious in flat footed people can result in the development of painful problems, as can oversupination (high arched feet).

Book in a consult today to find out what your feet do.
