Etiology, pathogenesis, clinical manifestations and treatment of heel pain

1, etiology and pathogenesis

Plantar aponeurosis is the tissue structure that maintains the longitudinal arch of the foot. It extends forward from the metatarsal tubercle of the calcaneus. It is divided into five segments near the metatarsal bone, which are attached to the proximal phalanx of the toe respectively. Flexor digitorum brevis is attached to its deep surface.

The dorsiflexion of metatarsophalangeal joint, the contraction of flexor digitorum brevis and the weight loss are all concentrated on the metatarsal tubercle of calcaneus, with considerable strength. Long-term, sustained and excessive traction stimulation can cause chronic (degenerative) injury at the plantar aponeurosis attachment of calcaneal plantar tubercle, leading to periostitis or fibrositis.

Congenital deficiency or acquired malnutrition, aging and other factors cause physical decline, various tissues and organs undergo degenerative changes, the strength of the foot weakens, and the ligaments relax, resulting in a decrease in the arch of the foot, an increase in the tension on the plantar aponeurosis, and a more concentrated and stronger traction at the starting point. Therefore, old age or decline is the root cause of heel pain. Therefore, heel pain mostly occurs after middle age. In case of sudden weight gain; Physical decline; Suddenly walked too much; Standing for a long time; Improper shoes and other reasons can cause heel pain. Under the long-term, sustained and excessive tension stimulation, calcium deposition can appear at the plantar aponeurosis attachment, thus increasing the ligament strength and resisting the increasing traction (manifested as the formation of bone spurs).

2. Clinical manifestations

Heel pain begins slowly, which may have a history of months or years. The chief complaint is heel and sole pain, which is aggravated when you just stand up and start walking after rest, and can be relieved after a few steps. There is local tenderness at the inner edge of heel plantar surface or the center of heel plantar surface. Lateral X-ray film of heel can show the formation of calcaneal "spur" in some cases. However, this "bone spur" is not the real cause of heel pain.

Step 3: Treatment

The treatment of heel pain is mainly based on Chinese medicine. According to the main factors of its degeneration, we added and subtracted "strengthening tendons and strengthening bones" (also known as anti-degeneration prescription, see b.thec.cn/happy0raven/ net), and achieved good results. "Concentrate on strengthening tendons and bones" (also known as anti-degenerative prescription) can improve human body quality, strengthen the binding force of ligaments, increase joint stability, stabilize the normal shape of arch of foot, and relieve the traction at the beginning of plantar aponeurosis. At the same time, this prescription also has the effect of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, which can promote microcirculation and accelerate inflammation regression. The combination of the two effects can treat both the symptoms and root causes, and fundamentally prevent the occurrence and development of heel pain. If combined with local blocking therapy, the effect will be faster. At the same time of treatment, a rubber sponge heel pad should be placed in the shoe.

Q: People in their fifties and sixties sometimes have pain in their heels after walking for a long time. What is the reason? What medicine should I take?

A:

This is because human feet, like other organs in the whole body, will gradually deteriorate with age. Foot pain is a sign of degeneration. Especially for the elderly and infirm, they usually walk less, the skin and muscles of the soles of the feet become soft, and the subcutaneous fat becomes thinner. When walking, the ground is next to the foot bone, which hurts more.

Old people with flat feet often have plantar pain. The cause of this disease is excessive weakness or long-term bed rest. With the increase of age, the ligaments that maintain the arch of the foot gradually relax, which can not maintain the shape of the arch of the foot, so that the metatarsal bone of the foot sinks and the muscles of the sole become tired. The prevention method is to bend the five fingers together frequently, walk on the ground with five fingertips and heels and keep exercising, so as to reduce the arch of the foot as soon as possible. You can also nail a hard rubber pad 1 cm high, 2 cm long and 3 cm wide in the middle of the sole. When walking, the center of the foot is attached to the hard rubber pad, so that the weight of the body does not completely fall on the metatarsal bone, which can alleviate the pain of the sole.
