Frequent and severe pain in the feet can indicate a variety of diseases.
Some of them are extremely serious, others are not, but in any case it is better to get rid of such symptoms as soon as possible. Indeed, not everyone will want to live with discomfort and pain in the lower extremities.
So, let's get together on why the feet hurt.
The most likely and common causes
Human foot consists of many important bones, which are interconnected by tendons, muscles and skin. All these tissues are intertwined with the circulatory system, which supplies them with the necessary nutrients. If a problem appears in at least one part of the foot, then it will certainly lead to painful sensations. Thus, the following factors can be distinguished that provoke discomfort and pain in the feet.
Physical stress
Strengthened exercises in the gym can cause pain not only in the calves of the lower extremities, but also in the feet. Also, similar feelings often arise in people whose professions involve a long stay on their feet (for example, hairdresser, doorman, salesman, etc.).
Problem shoes
“Foot hurts badly” - such a complaint can often be heard from those girls or
women who love to wear high-heeled shoes. And this is not surprising, since it is not a secret to anyone that a large rise in shoes is simply dangerous to health. In addition, pain in the feet can also bother those who have uncomfortable and tight shoes, in the process of which all blood vessels are simply compressed.
Injuries
Severe pain in the feet is a fairly common symptom that occurs after a bruise, fall, shock, etc. As a result of such injuries, a violation of the blood supply can also occur, which will also provoke pain.
Bone growth
Such a bone growth, like a calcaneal spur, occurs in people quite often. At the very beginning of the disease, pain in the heels can disturb a person after morning awakening and stepping on the foot. If this disease is not treated, then in the future the pains can become more intense and do not stop throughout the day.
Joint inflammation
Very often, pain in the feet occurs against a background of a disease such as rheumatoid arthritis. As a rule, in this case, a person feels discomfort while walking.
Benign proliferation - neuroma
Such a disease most often occurs in the area of the base of the third or fourth finger on one of the legs in women. At first, a person may feel moderate pain, but in the future it creates the impression that a heavy stone has grown in the foot.
Age changes
With age, the protective functions of our body decrease. So, fatty
the layer in the region of the
metatarsal bones is thinning, which significantly reduces its shock-absorbing ability.
Flat feet
This deviation is almost always accompanied by pain in the feet and increased fatigue. To reduce discomfort, doctors recommend that such patients buy only the right shoes.
Erythromelalgia
At the moment, doctors can not identify the cause of the development of this disease, against which a person has a burning pain, and the foot becomes very red.
