Heel spur — Usually the presence of bone increases, consider the cause of pain in the heel, in fact, pain is a consequence of plantar fasci, inflammation of the plantar aponeurosis. Spur itself does not hurt, its size, the fact of availability affects the tactics of treatment and the forecast of the disease. Conservative methods of treatment of heel spurs prevail over shock-wave therapy and surgical intervention, in general, it is extremely rarely applied.
Planted or plantar fascia — This is a wide bunch, which is attached to one side to the bases of tall bones, and on the other — to the heel bone. This fascia forms a longitudinal arch of the foot and is subjected to colossal loads, withsting body weight, stretching, jerks, blows. The bundle is constantly injured and died, but quickly heals and restores its functions. Under the conditions of excessive loads, regeneration is insufficient, inflammation is developing in the place of obstructions, called Planted Facege. Over time, the planner fasci is caused by the formation of bone growth on the heel — True heel spur.
The main methods of treatment of heel spurs
- The restriction of exercise on the foot implies gentle operation, workouts and loads.
- LFK and special exercises with heel spurs are aimed at improving blood circulation in stop tissues.
- Insoles with heel spurs must be equipped with a special supinator.
- The use of tunes in the heel spur is not effective as a method for treating fasci, but justified from the point of view of the treatment of mixed causes of heal pain.
- Tipping or imposition of a special immobilizing dressing for the treatment of plantar fascination injury and load limits.
- Using night orthosis (braces) for nightly extracts of plantar fascia and preventing its shortening.
- Local Introduction of glucocorticoids (for example, the blockade of heel spurs with hydrocortisone or disprpactor).
- Shock-wave therapy.
- Surgery.
LFK with heel spurs
Therapeutic exercises in the plantar fasci and heel spur are aimed at activating blood circulation in the field of foot, gradual stretching of shortened plantar fascia. It is shortening and subsequent fascism, «overst» Saluing during a night rest, is considered the cause of morning pain in the heel arising at the first steps. Along with the use of orthoses, ralk and tunes in the heel spur armchair, leaving a significant reduction in symptoms.
Exercises of the FFC with the heel spurs are performed after the preliminary workout and «Heat» The muscles of the shin and feet are aimed at strengthening, increasing elasticity and stretching of planar fascia. Thanks to training, the likelihood of micro-governs is reduced, conditions for healing injuries and inflammation.
Tipping with heel spurs
After performing a set of exercises with heel spurs, a foot tipping is shown, that is, its fixation in a physiologically advantageous position of bending at a right angle with respect to the lower leg. Tipping can be carried out using an elastic bandage, leukoplasty or special sports teip. Tensioning the tape for taping is needed at the moment when it goes down the foot from below ahead from the heel, then it will take part of the load that falls on the plantar fascia. Tipping along with the use of orthopedic ralk at the heel spur reduces the likelihood of injury and subsequent inflammation of the plantar aponeurosis.
Night Orthheses or Breas
Selecting the methods of treating the plantar fasci, it is not necessary to be limited to using such a primitive tool, as a target, at the heel spur, night orthoses are useful. They warn the shortening of the plantar fascia at night, useful for those who prefer to sleep on the stomach, when the stop is in the position of the plantar flexion. Ortez overnight immobilizes the leg in the right angle position to the tibia, thus preserving the tension of the planar fascia. When using such a treatment method, you can prevent the formation of the heel spur, to remove the inflammation of the planar fascia, while maintaining its physiological length.
