It can be quite frustrating to sustain an injury during your workout or while playing sports or engaging in athletic activities. You are making progress and getting fit only to get sidelined because of an unexpected accident. But you can reduce your recovery time and get better sooner by having your foot injury treated promptly by a foot care expert. At the Associated Foot Care Clinic in Culver City, the most frequent foot pain issues due to sports and exercise related injuries include the following:


Achilles Tendinitis

Affecting the Achilles tendon, this common foot and ankle condition involves the largest tendon in the body. This is caused by overuse and degeneration as well as wear and tear due to age and time, similar to other musculoskeletal injuries.


Plantar Fasciitis

Also known as heel spur syndrome, this chronic overuse type of injury leads to inflammation of a thick band of tissue that runs across the bottom of the foot and connects the heel bone to the toes, causing pain and mobility issues.


Ankle Sprains

Ranging from moderate with mild pain to severe with extreme pain that makes walking and standing become difficult, these are caused by twisting the foot, which damages the ligaments of the ankle.


Stress Fractures

Intense athletic activities can cause foot and ankle stress fractures due to the repetitive stress on the feet and ankles. Improper conditioning, equipment or technique can contribute to more wear and tear on the foot and ankle, causing small cracks in the bone.


Neuroma

Typically manifesting as pain in the ball of the foot or tingling and numbness, neuromas involve pinched nerves in the feet. The main symptom is pain between the toes while walking. Non-surgical treatment is common for neuroma, from appropriate or supportive footwear such as orthodontic inserts or corticosteroid injections to deal with inflammation.


Get your sports-related foot injury treated, don't let it linger or worsen. With prompt intervention your recovery will be faster and you can return to your ordinary activities sooner.
