What Causes

Foot Injury

Foot injuries are varied and can stem from acute events like falls or sports accidents, leading to fractures or ligament sprains. They can also develop gradually from overuse, resulting in stress fractures or tendon strains. Puncture wounds from stepping on sharp objects are another common cause of injury.

Symptoms

Depending on the location and severity, symptoms include localised pain, swelling, and bruising. You will likely experience difficulty walking or bearing weight. The pain may be sharp and immediate, or it could present as a dull, constant ache.

Treatment

Rest and ice are crucial first steps to manage pain and swelling. A full podiatric assessment is vital to diagnose the specific injury. Treatment is tailored to the cause and may involve strapping, a moon boot, custom orthotics to offload pressure, or a strengthening and mobility program.
