Metatarsalgia is a huge problem for many and today I show you how I like to treat it with very high success. Be sure to get a semi-custom orthotic with an additional Metatarsal pad which you can move around and put where you are most comfortable.

@billbauer9795 3 года назад

I have been having pain in the ball of my foot below my big toe. After a year of experiencing that pain, I saw a podiatrist. He placed that tape in such a way that it took the pressure off of the metatarsal area below my big toe. Yesterday I went hiking and I sprained my foot. Now I have metatarsalgia below my third toe. It looks like my podiatrist made it more likely for me to develop this new problem. I wish he were to use the padding in the shape shown in this video, that allows the pressure to be taken off of all of the areas. This injury is devastating for me. It will heal within the next 6-8 weeks. This means that I will be completely losing the remainder of the summer (I am writing this on July 24)...

@moshdee456 Год назад

There is hope: It can go away. The most recent literature suggests resting, wearing padded shoes, strengthening and stretching the big toe and calf muscle. The cause is unknown, but people with metatarsalgia tend to have bunions or hammer toes or both. Flat feet too. When the big toe isn't strong enough or can't do its job (as is the case with bunions or narrow shoes), weight is distributed inefficiently through the smaller metatarsal (MTP) joints. This happens faster during high-impact activities like running, jumping, and dancing. It's difficult to stretch or strengthen the calf because of the pain. If conservative treatments don't work, surgery can treat the bunion, hammer toes, and the metatarsalgia directly.

Been having pain for one and a half years now and am desperate for relief. Also how long does it take to get better from this problem. I thought your video was very well done.

@meatmachines 2 года назад

Is it normal for an orthopedist to not know how to put on a metatarsal pad? I asked mine for help putting it on and he put it directly under the heads, which hurt. I eventually moved it further back as per this and other videos and it was so much better. So wondering if that's a sign I need to switch to a different orthopedist.

I have intense foot pain in the ball of my foot all the way across. I work for the largest snack food provider. And I have no choice right now but to walk all day long mostly 12 hours a day 7 days a week for the last 4 years. And before that it was standing on a forklift for 2 years. I've had mris and been to 2 podiatrists. And nobody has been able to help. I had custom Orthodics and they didn't help. The podiatrist told me he would prefer them to be softer so I got a 70 dollar pair of inserts off Amazon m100s and they were a micro better. All I feel I have left to do is get dermal or fat injections wich I feel will only deform my feet due to pressure of walking. I know I need a job where I'm not on my feet as much but what would you add to the comments in the mean time I am a soul provider for my family? Any info would be greatly apreciated

I went to see chiropodist who advised I had metatarsalgia in pre-subluxation syndrome in both feet. She advised me to buy budin splints and she put a foam piece on the shoe insert similar to your foam piece but looked like a ball. She also prescribed toe stretching exercises and using a tennis ball to relieve arch cramps. It has been several months and things are still pretty painful but not quite as bad. Do you think the splintes are a good idea As they are right underneath the area that hurts. It hurts when I walk depending on the shoes I wear I try to wear the good ones that I bought on her recommendation. Is it usual to have this in both feet? Also my winter boots are a problem I am just wondering what I could buy that would work better than what I have I live in a very snowy part of Canada

@joeberg3164 3 года назад

I too suffer from this pain issue. For me I get a false burning/stinging/numbness pain in the toes at night or when my feet are loose and free. I attribute this false pain nerve effect due to the mortin nueroma nerves. I found I can eliminate the toe burning/numbing sensation by applying a small amount of pressure to the bottom or around my arch of my foot. You can do this simply putting on or wearing around the foot a gentle elastic band or cloth elastic cloth tube. My cheap and fast solution is take a stretch sock and use a scissor to cut out a 5 to six inch section of sock to form a tube. Take the tube and roll up to gain some additional thickness and elastic force like a rubber band. Then wear the cloth tube on the offending foot at night in bed. Try an amazon search for Compression Arch Sleeves or Cushioned Arch Support Brace. Good luck.

I use orthotics but my toes underneath pain .3rd toe is very painful. It is very hard surface at the bottom.

Have you tried an orthotic with a metatarsal pad? Check the link in that video for a suggested orthotic and met pad.

Do you think I can put these pads under Superfeet insoles?

Is it possible to have some kind of swelling like metatarsalgia but have no pain? I am perfectly comfortable in my various shoes but recently I've noticed when I walk barefoot on a hard floor I have a sensation as if there is something on the ball of my foot, but it's not painful. I have recently started doing a small amount of running along with my other exercises. I bought a new pair of shoes that were fitted at a running shop and have only been on a treadmill a couple of times for brief periods. I am alternating intervals of walking and running on a 1% incline. I am 70 years old and have run at different times through the years but never experienced anything like this.

That’s how mine started out. Not painful, but present. Almost annoying. Then it became more noticeable as I increased mileage, and eventually quite painful.

Have you had any luck with inserts or ice or massage or anything?

My 2nd and 3rd toe pop up when I step on my foot is this a Plantar Plate Tear? It Hurts a lot. I thought I broke my foot

@OrthoEvalPal 2 года назад

It could be the beginning. Have you tried an orthotic with a met pad? It's in the show notes

Hi Doc I got turf toe during soccer and it hurts to put pressure on metatarsal bone/part. It's been 6 weeks will using pads help relief pain and allow me to play again without pain? Thanks

I have hallux limitus. My big toe feels stiff. I am wearing a cheaper orthotic. Any suggestions. My calf is really tight as well. Thanks

#1. Stretch the calf well. # Rocker bottom shoes can help with this. Couple links to help. amzn.to/39fEmRV (HOKA sneaker) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-XMS0MoRyLHE.html (Stretch video)
