Mine do that! Even if I move my foot my hips crack and pop. It's normal. Mine started doing it at 22 weeks.

m keeping my foot angled. I am also starting to develop pain in the bottom of my foot behind the toe joints. I called last Friday to request an appt with a specialist but due to the holiday they were closed, and their message also states that referrals take 72 hours to happen. I'm sure it will eventually but this is getting to be a real problem as I've already missed out on a few activities that I had planned (football game, etc) because I just can't be on my feet that long..

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.

Osteoarthritis of the hindfoot (the bones and joints between your heel and the front of your ankle) is not uncommon. It can be caused by normal wear and tear, or an undiagnosed deformity in the bones. One signal that the problem is in the hindfoot is that the majority of your pain happens when you rotate the foot laterally (side to side, like rolling your ankle).

The Lisfranc fracture is a fracture or dislocation of the joints in your mid foot, here some small bones forms an arch on top of the foot between your ankle joint and toes. I would suggest you to go for a second opinion and try to delay fusion and if possible go for a second surgery. If there is no scope for healing after a second opinion and recent scans then you are left with option for fusion as this will stabilize your foot.

Hello and welcome, This is common with FM and I believe what your describing is called crepitus. It's fairly harmless. Sometimes it can be caused by arthritis in the joints- other times it's just caused by cartilage rubbing on bones or other tissues. I wouldn't worry too much about it. I have it really bad and have had it for years. It's just something you learn to live with I guess. Heat helps the pain when the joints are swollen.

http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e55/dudnaito/footlarge.jpg i will be seeing a doctor once my insurance gets in order, but that won't be for another 2-3 weeks. i've of course taken aspirin, of course i stretch, and yes I've iced it, used creams, etc.. but it's fairly persistent. It's actually not painful at all unless I either walk around for more than 30 minutes or I jog, which is quite a lot... something that I've had to refrain from for quite awhile now.

is a deformity that usually occurs at the head of the one of the five long bones or just due to deficiency of vitamins.So you can take some multivitamins for few days and see if it works. Consult to your physician for further examination. Hope it helps.Regards.

Thankyou x will look into one of them, I just want a few nights of full sleep before sleeping becomes something of myth and legend when this little one arrives >< Funny thing is my mum told me today she was the same carrying my brother, really bad pains in both hips while sleeping, but none at all with my sister Ir I Oo.

I had 6 joints in foot fused, bone graft from heel, 2 plates, several screws and fused bones shortened due to deformity and was fine until stitches were taken out and cast put on. A day later my cast is feeling too tight but color of toes is good unless I put it down. Have kept my foot up and mostly above my heart and iced for last 4 days without much relief but situation has not gotten worse. Orthopedic doc said Advil is not good as it keeps bones from healing but I need to reduce swelling.

It has only really been this last 4-5 years that I have noticed the cronic fatigue and if I go out now I use either a walking stick, wheelchair or mobility scooter depending on how I am feeling on the day. Recently however I have noticed pain in my joints and the only way I can describe it is my bones feel cold and I can't seem to do anything to warm them up.

Usually, a CT scan is performed to determine the extent of the coalition and also reveal the joints/bones involved. After resection of a coalition, patients tend to benefit from orthotics/braces to limit motion. If she continues to have pain, she would need a fusion of the joints. Can you tell me what bones are involved in the coalition so I could answer your questions in more detail?

When I was at the docs at 12 weeks the top of my uterus lined with my hip bones

Six months later I was diagnosed with fractures in both heels and have been in two casts, crutches and another walking boot. I am still in pain! I just had an MRI that shows Marrow Edema in four bones of my foot. What does this mean? I do not see the Dr. again for two weeks! I can't be on my feet for any length of time with suffering excruciating pain!

Hello :-) Is it possible to have a "compression" neuropathy in the feet due to severe OA ? I have been diagnosed with Charcot Joint by a rheumatologist but have NO symptoms other than collapsing bone structures. Long ago the podiatrist said the severe destruction from the OA resulted in nerve compression and hence the neuropathy. The neurologist said the neuropathy (of unknown origin) caused the collapse of the bones/Charcot Joints.

My bones/joints are looser than normal and that's where the pain comes from

I found out i have low vitamin d and have been taking supplements since and my aches and pains in my bones and joints have decreased

I removed broken bones/bone fragments from under the base of my tongue by bigfatgrannyof5, 2 hours ago No one will probably believe me, because it does not sound probable, but, here goes. When I was perhaps 23 years of age, the bones under the base of my tongue shattered for no apparent reason. I could feel these tiny bone fragments moving about, and the pain was tremendous, cutting me from within.

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.

It does not hurt but it is very noticeable and I do not know if it could be something serious. It sounds like the lower part of my back or maybe my hip seems to be popping in and out of place only when I walk. Does anyone have any ideas as to what this could be or whether it is serious or not? Thanks!

It is a form of arthritis that causes the gradual breakdown of the cartilage that cushions the joints. Movement then causes the bones to rub against each other, which is painful. Degenerative arthritis is characterized by inflammation, breakdown and eventual loss of the cartilage of the joints. This can be caused by obesity, bad posture, repeated trauma or injury, and overuse. In some cases, degenerative arthritis may be hereditary.

Hi, For the last week or so, i get this sudden sharp and pulsating pain in my foot, the inner arch area (left feet). I looked at a foot muscle diagram to identify the area and it looks like the abductor hallucis area where the pain is located. The pain hits suddenly without warning, lasts for 5-10 seconds. Or comes and goes about twice or thrice in a minute.. and then nothing for hours or even days. But its happening once a day at least for the last three days. The occurrence has no pattern.

I'm 34 weeks today, and since yesterday my bones have been hurting really bad! Especially on my knees, joints and wrists. Is anybody else experiencing this? What have you done for relief? I'm currently taking my vitamins and iron pills due to me being severely anemic, I also read on my tums bottle that they are good calcium supplements so I'm taking 2 of those daily. I've been drinking lots of milk as well.

I Found out that the bones in kids legs and feet grow faster than their muscles. This can cause pain in the joints because the muscles have not stretched to the length of the fast growing bones. His pcp suspected this when my son could not flex his foot back to 90 degrees. I went to a sports medicine doctor who spotted this immediately. He suggested stretches for my son-- he had to stand about 3 steps away from a wall and then lean forward keeping his feet flat in the ground...
