Why do legs hurt?
Foot problems bother us quite rarely - especially when it comes to young people. If something hurts, many often write it off as self-evident factors, such as excessive walking and do not pay attention. However, when a problem arises with the legs, it immediately becomes clear how much they affect our mood and life in general.
Why do heels hurt
Such pain is very unpleasant and can almost completely knock a person out of the normal rhythm of life. Even an easy daily walk turns into a daunting task. There are many causes of heel pain. First of all, you should pay attention to your shoes (this is especially true for women). A "stiletto heel" or a high heel leads to an "overload" of the foot, as a result of which intense shooting pains can occur in the heel.
Injury can also cause burning pain in the heel. Pain of this type is more often found in trauma to the ligaments of the ankle joints. It often feels like a needle is stuck in the heel. If a person wears comfortable normal shoes and has not been accidentally injured, but feels pain in his leg, then this may be the result of certain diseases. These diseases include plantar fasciitis, heel spur, arthritis, reactive arthritis, inflammation of the Achilles tendon.
Why calves hurt
There are several reasons that can provoke pain in the calves. Pain in the calf muscles can cause a variety of injuries in this area - for example, as a result of excessively intense exercise. Sudden pain can also occur during physical activity or when walking. Vascular diseases also quite often lead to pain in the calves. This is due to a violation of the outflow of venous blood, as a result of which an increase in pressure in the vessels begins.
As a result of the formed venous stasis, the nerve endings are irritated, and pain syndrome develops. In most cases, these pains are "dull" in nature, the patient feels heaviness in the legs. Pain of a pulsating nature is observed in the calf muscles with another vascular disease - thrombophlebitis. Pain in the calves with thrombophlebitis is permanent. Atherosclerosis of the arteries, diseases of the spine, diseases of peripheral nerves, etc. can also provoke the appearance of pain in the calf muscles.
Why do feet hurt
Quite often in medical practice, there are complaints from patients about pain in the foot or foot. The reasons that provoke these pains are varied. A very common condition that causes pain in the soles of the feet is flat feet. The arch of the foot with flat feet drops and becomes flat, while the foot loses its shock-absorbing function when walking. With flat feet, fatigue and pain in the foot appear not only while running or walking, but even when standing.
It is also common to have a pain-causing disease in the foot, such as a heel spur. It manifests itself when the patient steps on the heel in the morning after waking up, or when he rises after a long sitting. A number of traumatic injuries can serve as the cause of pain of this kind: dislocation of the Lisfranc joint, dislocation of the Chopard joint and tarsal bones, long-term immobility, significant long-term physical exertion on the legs, a sharp increase in body weight in a short period of time.
Why do my toes hurt
In most cases, pain in the toes is triggered by one of three reasons: vascular disorders, arthrosis or arthritis. Various arthritis have their "favorite" fingers. For example, the big toe is often inflamed in psoriatic and reactive arthritis and in gout (true gout, which occurs most often in men). The rest of the fingers in most cases become inflamed (in various combinations and variants) with rheumatoid arthritis, sometimes with psoriatic arthritis.
If your toes (some or all) are white, and this is especially accompanied by pain during physical activity, then most likely a disease of the blood vessels is possible. An ingrown toenail can also cause severe pain in the toes. Most often it appears on the thumb and can lead to swelling, redness, or infection.
Why do legs hurt in the morning?
Morning leg pains can be caused by various factors. For example, excessive physical exertion exerted on the legs during the previous day or being overweight can lead to this. In plantar fasciitis, pain is also most felt in the morning when the person gets out of bed after a long rest. The same applies to the heel spur. To find a more accurate cause, it is better to consult a competent doctor.
