Feet Pain
Foot pain refers to any pain or discomfort in one or more parts of the foot. Your feet bear weight when you’re standing and when you walk to where you need to go. Because of this, foot pain is common such as:
heels
soles
toes
arches
The pain can range from mild to severe, and it may last a short time or be an ongoing issue. Many measures can help relieve your foot pain.
Types of Foot Pain
Certain pain conditions are commonly associated in different areas of your foot such as:
Ball of the foot/toes: Bunions, hammertoe, metatarsalgia, turf toe, Morton's neuroma
Bottom of the foot: Plantar fasciitis
Arch of the foot: Posterior tibial tendonitis, tarsal tunnel syndrome
Causes of Foot Pain
Certain lifestyle choices or a medical condition leads to having foot pain. You're also more at risk for having foot pain if you are overweight or have obesity, pregnant, or having a foot injury such as sprain, fracture, or tendinitis.
Getting injured during high-impact exercise or sports activities, such as jogging or intense aerobics can also develop foot pain.
