Common Questions and Answers about Foot cramps arch

foot

Avatar m tn I will be relaxing and all of a sudden I get severe, very painful muscle spasms that bend my foot so bad it feels like my foot is going to break right in the arch and my little toe and the toe next to it usually spread out in some kind of spasm spreading out to the side and my other toes turn under. I have no idea what is happening. I have to grab my foot and really force it back to a normal position as well as my toes, which is very painful. Then it will start all over again.
Avatar n tn Something that I do to help with foot cramps is keep a bottle or can next to the bed and roll the arch of my foot over it to help relax the muscle. Since the pain is now in thighs and hands, I would be worried as well. I would take her to a nutritionist if the pediatrician is drawing a blank.
1207048 tn?1282174304 That pain sounds very similar to when I had Plantar Facitis(sp) it is the muscle in the arch of your foot not being stretched enough. The podiatrist gave me excersises to do and a cortisone shot (that was not fun in the foot!) Absolutely nothing you want to diagnos on your own so good thing you are seeing your doctor. I hope it is something simple as what I mentioned.
Avatar m tn i had major foot painprior to treatment..
Avatar f tn s at the top of the arch and right in the middle of my foot. It only hurts when I press on that part of my foot or when I am walking. The walking pain happens when I lift up my heel taking a step. The pain radiates from the top of the arch of my foot to the heel. The pain was minimal at the beginning of the day, then got worse as the day went on. I taped my foot after a few days of this and am using a walker and crutches I already had to keep weight off of it as much as possible.
Avatar f tn I Am 26W And Wake Up During The Night From These Awful Leg Cramps. They've Mainly Been In My Calve Muscles And Sometimes My Foot Arch. Please Someone Tell Me What's Going On And How Can I Keep This From Happening. Especially While I Sleep And Try To Stretch Or Move Into A More Comfortable Position. I'm Afraid To Move At Night Or Stretch now.
Avatar f tn From what I understand if you have a high arch then your arch supports should be providing more cushion. Are your arch supports very rigid or are they a bit more on the cushioned side? I read that you got new shoes as well. What kind were they? Generally, for your foot type you might need a shoe that has less EVA material at the midsole, athletic only. The EVA is the support in the shoe.
Avatar n tn Hi Dr, About 15 years ago i sprained my left ankle ever since i have had problems with it. I have a pain on the top side of my foot over too the left side over my cuboid. When i go for a jog or a swim my foot would cramp up and my toes would turn into the up position trying to relief my pain. What would be the best way forward. Would a pair of arch supports work fine or would i have to go and see a specialist??
Avatar n tn I am having pain in my left foot - Arch and heel are very painful. It started after playing golf with new golf shoes. I thought it might be the shoes and since have played with out them and still have the pain. I am flat footed and ware arch supports to minimize tiredness for walking all day. Day after I first felt the pain I had gone to my chiropractor for tightness in my lower and middle back. Since I have had this constant ach, and sharp pain in the heel.
Avatar m tn I would do calf stretches on steps with them which may have hurt my arches, (maybe). During all that time I shifted my weight mostly onto the ball of my foot rather than even on the heel because it hurt too much and inflamed the problem. A few days ago I was away from home and walking in these sandles, I had just done some calf stretches on a step and when I began to walk I felt a sharp stinging pain, almost like a tearing or pulling on the pronounced ligament in my arch.
Avatar f tn like something is too short, very uncomfortable, and painful, and leads to cramps in toes, or arch, or calf.But I am so sick to sleep only on the back. For the craps I have, I take quinine before going to bed, every night, and in six months I had only one cramp, three- four days ago, at my left foot between the big toe and the arch, but then I got scared to not repeat and I couldn't sleep for a few nights.
Avatar m tn Just quickly, the shoes were from a place called athletes foot, and he said they were pretty high (he could fit three fingers under the arch (while I had socks on). The arch's face each other (if you put your feet parallel), while the foots flat on the on the other side. I also have no other problems (neurological, muscle problems, bone problems, etc etc).
Avatar f tn foot pain where, heel, arch or by the toes. Forget the NASIDS try rolling a tennis ball around with your foot while you are sitting. Many chiro's want one to use ice instead of heat.
Avatar n tn if you were plaster casted with the foot at neutral, it would capture your natural arch b/f you put weight on the foot. so, it really wouldn't be too high for you.
7763229 tn?1396626895 If there's no bruise, go to your doc and see about collapsed arches. I have orthotic inserts for my shoes because my arches have collapsed (you have three different arches in your foot, and one is located a bit below your toes). Without my orthotics, I get a pain in the top of my foot because the collapsed arch pinches a nerve cluster. Based on what you've said, that's what it sounds like to me.
Avatar f tn Now they are no longer on my toes, but on the arch of my left foot. It is not on the other foot at all. I have tried to search the web and I can not find anything on this. They are not raised, they do not itch, or flake. Someone suggested that it is eczema. I am not sure. I put vaseline on my foot overnight and it seemed not to help at all. Any suggestions would definitely help. Please see the attached picture of what they look like. Thank you!
963268 tn?1312900315 I get foot cramps, especially if I'm doing something with the foot. Unfortunately I have so many problems with my legs that it's not safe for me to drive.
Avatar m tn i have noticed that my right foot arch is very low when i stand and i also noticed that my right foot rolls in excessively when i walk. my foot gets really sore when i walk a certain amount of time and causes an excessive drag on the outside heel of my shoes . also my left foot sometimes falls when i am walking which causes me to drag the front on my shoes .i was wondering if there is any soultion to permanently fix this problem.

I am still having this issue...tho not like b4 as that is the case with many of my symptoms...but I had a month or more of the vibrating, now I have had a few nights of cramps in the arch of my feet.

Avatar n tn I am having a pain on the bottom outside edge of my foot. It feels like a bruise but has been there for a while. I am a runner and assume this is a training injury. Any ideas?
Avatar f tn my right foot between top of heel and bottom of arch has been hurting so badly for about 3 months. any ideas? read in a reflexology book could be bladder issues? also heard could be plantar fasciitis?
Avatar f tn One of the main times it happens is when I have been sitting indian style and the toe some how is bent forward, curling under my foot. My foot will instantly tighten up and the pain is immense. My big toe is the only toe curled under, while the other toes are pointed out same as usual. I have to massage in my arch close to the big toe to get the pain to alleviate. I have had this happen in both feet on many occasions. I have not had any recent issues, however I have had close calls.
Avatar f tn Commonly cited conditions that lead to cramps include muscle fatigue, lack of proper stretching, dehydration and electrolyte imbalances. Less commonly, medications or an underlying medical disorder are the culprit. Exercising in a hot environment can lead to excessive sweating, which further contributes to dehydration. If you aren't getting enough electrolytes in your diet, particularly sodium, potassium and magnesium, that can also contribute to getting foot cramps.
Avatar m tn An ideal shoe would be one that provides support for the entire foot (the heel as well as the front part) so that weight gets equally distributed and maintains the normal foot arch (as holding the foot against a flat surface without any pressure), so that the shape of the shoe precisely complements the shape of the under surface of the foot. If these shoes fit into the criteria and you are comfortable wearing them, you may give them a try. Hope this was useful. Take care!
237053 tn?1258828426 Most of my foot pain is on the top of the foot. I do feel it on the bottom as well but if feels as if the pain radiates sometimes from my ankle to the top of my foot. Also sometimes feels like my foot is cramping if that is even possible. Very annoying and painful! Do you get all the other pains too?
Avatar f tn I have Fibromyalgia. I get excruciating cramps (charlie horses) in my calfs, toes, arch of feet, top of feet, inner right thigh, sides of calfs from the outside knee down to ankle. When I walk outside my home such as going to get groceries I am sure to have these cramps at night. They may also come during the daytime. My fingers and hands spasm also. My fingers on my right hand will pull in toward the center or my hand.. I became very ill about 2 years ago.
