Why does your foot hurt so much you limp and it feels like someone is stabbing it?

You must see your medical care professionals right away for an accurate diagnosis and treatment. One possibility is plantar fasciitis [fay she EYE tis]. It has nothing to do with plantar warts or with heal spurs. Plantar fasciitis is the overstretching or overuse of the layer of tissue under the heal. The pain is worst when first getting out of bed, or after sitting or standing for long periods. There are other possible causes of foot pain, and many different treatments available. I had a series of acupuncture treatments for plantar fasciitis a few years ago, and I was delighted with the results. The acupuncture was mildly uncomfortable, but very effective.


Where can I buy shoes for someone suffering from plantar fasciitis?

There are several places where one can buy shoes designed to help plantar fasciitis. Kurufootwear.com is an online shop where such shoes can be purchased. One may also want to look into purchasing an insert to be inserted into the shoe that one already has if money is an issue. Such an insert can be purchased at a location such as Walmart.


How do you get rid of plantar fasciitis?

Plantar fasciitis can be cured by using special orthotics. These are insoles or inserts which you put inside your shoe as a support for your feet. By using them, it helps distribute the weight of your body evenly across your feet, reducing the pressure on your heels. This helps relieve the pain. When used over time, these orthotics for plantar fasciitis also help structure your feet properly to treat this condition. Some good brands of insoles are Powerstep and Pedag, which are both well recognised by podiatrists around the world. Plantar fasciitis is curable as long as you practice good foot care.


What walking shoe should you wear with plantar fasciitis?

A friend of mine reccommended using the NEW BALANCE M1122 sneakers to help with my plantar fasciitis (which I have on BOTH feet). They were expensive - US$ 120.00, which is MUCH more $ than I ever thought I would ever pay for a pair of sneakers ! But I must admit, that there is a HUGE difference when I wear these NB 1122's rather than any other traditional sneaker I have tried. I lace up them up rather tightly, and go out for my usual 3 - 4 mile workout. Even with this short a distance my plantar ligament used to hurt so much that walking that night and the next day was VERY painful. Now, since I have been wearing the NB 1122's, the pain afterwards has been reduced about 75 % ! They work MUCH better than the bulky gel pack orthotic pads that an Orthopedist rescribed for me. I would strongly reccommend these NB 1122 shoes to anyone who has "chronic" plantar fasciitis like I do - well worth the $ investment ED


What is plantar extension?

Someone probably meant dorsiflexion aka pulling the toes closer to your shin. Its counterpart would be plantar flexion, hence the idea of plantar extension. Tbh, i also prefer the term of plantar extension, due to its clear indication that we are talking about something close to the foot; dorsum could be misinterpreted here as the back of the torso. (Even though for anatomists, the word dorsiflexion is reserved for ankle movement only.) cheers


What advice is available for someone new to running?

Can you run too much?

Yes. The limit depends on your body mass, your sex and age, and your conditioning. Some of the signs that you're running too much: Shin splints Chronic plantar fasciitis pulled hamstring for girls, cessation of menstruation may mean you need to ease up a bit. I'm sure that many athletes deal with these things and keep going, but if you're just a kind of regular person, use some common sense and if it hurts a lot or changes something major about the way your body works, see someone - probably a sports medicine type - and get some guidance.
