That string you’re watching move on the top of the foot? That’s a dorsal cutaneous nerve.
And when a nerve is tethered (stuck down by adhesions / restricted tissue), it can’t glide the way it’s designed to.
So what happens instead?
- Burning, tingling, zaps
- “Pins and needles” that come and go
- Weird foot/ankle pain that doesn’t match the injury
- Symptoms that bounce around and make you feel a little crazy
This is one reason I’m so obsessed with ARM () we’re not just chasing pain…we’re restoring movement where your body has been stuck.
If you’ve been told “everything looks fine” but your body is still yelling, there’s usually a reason.
Comment NERVE and I’ll tell you the most common places I see nerves get tethered (and what it can refer pain into).
