Heel spur is a very uncomfortable condition that affects our feet. Pain in the feet and heels can be caused by standing for a long time, wearing high heels, as well as in obese elderly people.
The cause of this phenomenon is a condition called plantar fasciitis, which is actually a consequence of irritation or inflammation of the tissue that connects the foot and toes. That part of the body is under a great load, because it has to withstand our entire weight. Any activity, such as walking, running, and even standing still, can cause a number of physical injuries that result in a heel spur.
There are also categories of people who have a predisposition to heel pain. Most often, these are women and obese people, and then those who spend most of the day standing or walking on a hard surface. Often, heel spurs can also manifest in athletes, then in people who have shortened lower leg muscles and an inflexible Achilles tendon.
Treatment
After examination by a physiatrist, treatment should begin as soon as possible. As an efficient and modern type of physical therapy is the application of the new technology INDIBA Activ Cell therapy. These are radio waves and the therapy is performed in the form of a massage, and exercises can be done through the therapy. This therapy can be combined with the use of a deeply penetrating electromagnetic stimulator TALENT, which has a penetration of 10-15 cm and a direct analgesic effect on the fascia itself. In addition to physical therapy, exercises for stretching and strengthening the muscles of the legs and feet are also necessary, which leads to the stabilization of the ankle and heel.
