Common Questions and Answers about Anatomy of foot bones ligaments

foot

Avatar f tn Yes, there are no traditional hernias in the foot. However, if your plantar fascia and other ligaments are weak or injured then pads of fat can slip out and cause lumps. The bones held together by these ligaments may slip from place and cause a lump which looks like hernia. You need to ask your doctor for a MRI.
Avatar f tn But the baby had the legs and feet curled up in between so it could have been the leg or foot bone. I honestly think it looked like a foot bone. I looked up pics of the girl anatomy and none of the pics I seen looked anything like what she showed us. Idk she's the tech I guess but now I gotta wait and see if my doctor will want to take out the ultrasound machine at my next appointment and see if she can get our little love to open his/her legs.

1558461 tn?1295392601 could simply be the muscles and ligaments of those stressed joints yelling in protest. Or causing other bones to rub together differently and thus cause joint inflammation. Have you been seen for the chronic pain in your toe? It sounds like you need to get to the root cause.
Avatar f tn I saw my ankle surgeon a couple of weeks ago and I had just found out that I have a bone spur on the top of my right foot (the same foot and ankle that I had surgery on in April 2008). He told me to do some ankle exercises to relieve some of the pain. He didn't do anything with the bone spur yet. I go see him again October 15. My question is: Will the ankle exercises help the bone spur disappear or will I need to get surgery to remove the bone spur?
1148201 tn?1262165258 Has anybody torn many ligaments at one time of your knee. Have you had it fixed and should I let them fix all at one time?.Also I have nerve damage causing foot drop that they say they will attempt to fix at as well. They need to graph from both hamstrings to my knee as well as a piece from my other knee. Many holes and much more pain. Ouch need some support to get though this one just a word from the wise.
Avatar f tn It could also be stress fractures of the bones of the foot. You will need MRI of the whole foot, X-rays of the foot, EMG and nerve conduction studies for a confirmed diagnosis. Take care! The medical advice given should not be considered a substitute for medical care provided by a doctor who can examine you. The advice may not be completely correct for you as the doctor cannot examine you and does not know your complete medical history.
Avatar f tn Yeah I've got two muscles or ligaments that run vertically either side of my belly and they are so painful to touch, even light pressure is quite painful, so when the technician pushed on those bits I kept jumping and yelling! She just learned to avoid them lol. It doesn't damage or hurt baby though, just yourself.
Avatar m tn The deltoid, anterior talofibular, posterior talofibular, and calcaneofibular ligaments and the interosseous ligaments show no evidence of rupture. The spring ligament complex is not well-seen. Plantar Fascia: No abnormal thickness or edema is seen of the plantar aponeurosis. Sinus Tarsi: A small amount of fluid is seen in the sinus tarsi. Impression: 1. Diffuse bone marrow edema of the navicular, with a minimal, nondisplaced fracture line at the anterior subchondral aspect of the navicular.
Avatar f tn Hi there! That bruising takes forever to go away-even my swelling took a couple months.As long as you have a good pulse on the top of your foot I wouldn't worry much.I was also told to wiggle my toes all the time.Good luck to you!
775302 tn?1253100505 Peggie, your foot has many small bones, joints, muscles and ligaments, any one of which could be causing pain. It's best to go to an orthopedic surgeon to who specializes in feed in order to get x-rays and a proper diagnosis.
Avatar f tn The anterior tibiofibular ligament and anterior talofibular ligament are difficult to see because of soft tissue changes around the ligaments but appearances suggest at least a partial tear of both ligaments. The posterior talofibular and calcaneofibular ligaments appear intact. The deltoid ligament also appears intact altough there is oedema of the tibio-talar component. No bone abnormality is shown at the ankle joint or elsewhere in the mid or hind foot. No tendon abnormality is shown.
Avatar f tn The pain can best be described as a searing, throbbing, burning contraction of the foot. I feel waves of squeezing pressure all day, every couple minutes, which elevate to an almost unbearable level at night. I am trying to remain optimistic but depression is setting in. I have not begun to walk yet, but I do stand and take a few steps on my own to test things out. Almost immediately my foot balloons in size.
Avatar f tn Yeah anatomy scans are usually lots of measurements making sure everything looks normal and is measuring the correct size for how far along you are. And of course checking for the baby's gender if you want to know. I'm not sure if your midwife told you but they usually want you to have a full bladder when you start to get correct measurments. They'll let you use the bathroom halfway through if you need to (I always need to lol).
Avatar f tn t think of the name of it, but the lump on your foot may have been some sort of internal bleeding where the blood became gel. My grandmother had one on her thigh once from throwing her leg over a fence (my grandmother was adventurous, lol) and she had to have it lanced. My husband also got one following one of his surgeries as he had to work immediately after surgery. (I wish I could think of what it's called!) I agree with the others that an MRI might shed some light on this problem.
Avatar f tn Impingement of the ankle joint between the bones of ankle and foot is another possibility. The clue to right treatment is right diagnosis of the cause of pain. You can consult an orthopedic specialist. Take care!
Avatar f tn Depending on your grade of injury your orthopedician will cure you. You would need to check your cruciate ligaments (anterior and posterior) by a proper examination by an orthopedician. Go for an MRI for diagnosing soft tissue injuries and to rule out injuries with menisci or collateral ligaments. Continue ice packs, take pain killers and rest and do not exert the injured knee. Take care!
Avatar m tn It bent his foot outward (toes going away from the middle of the body). His pain is in the rear, outer portion of the ankle, where the CFL ligament is. Doctor asked if we're sure if his ankle rolled outward, not inward. Yes, we're sure. Why would the pain be on the outside if his foot turned outside?
Avatar n tn So I immediately went to the hospital. Where they did do an x-ray and was told that I did not have any broken bones. My foot was red and would change colors, especially when I put weight on it. I was referred to an orthopedic who then ordered a bone scan but did not find anything however he did put my foot in a cast to see if it helped with the pain and swelling. 3 weeks later my foot was still the same and the cast was taken off.
Avatar m tn s kind of like a football knee, the kneecap that is usually held against the bones by ligaments can pop out of the slot in the bone for a few steps before the ligaments put it back in again. If you can feel her kneecap and it's a bit loose, that also might tend to confirm it. Talk to her vet about it.
Avatar f tn That will help you a lot and can even make labor go faster since you are more relaxed and the bones, ligaments and muscles are in the right place. You probably need it very much since you are in pain.
