Foot pain pressure points
Common Questions and Answers about Foot pain pressure points
foot
These trigger points , also called myfascial release points, are released by 20 seconds of extreme pressure per 1/2 inch areas. It hurts, but then feels better as lactic acid (your condition) is pushed out of the effected tissues. This must be repeated, sometimes several times per day if you learn how to do it - in between seeing a massage therapist initially 2 X per week for a few weeks to a month.
You can experiment by rolling your foot with pressure over a golf ball on the floor.
You should try acupressure and wear soft padded footwear preferably slip-ons and not shoes. You can also try foot wear with soles designed according to pressure points. Also when you are standing keep changing the position, lift your foot off the ground for sometime and let your foot bear the body weight alternatively. If possible keep a small stool nearby on which you can rest your foot from time to time.
Both caregiver222 and jemma116 have provided accurate information.
The two sciatic nerves are the largest nerves in the human body. They are formed on each side from elements of the lumbar nerve roots, and runs beneath the piriformis region in the pelvis, exiting the pelvis at the greater sciatic foramen, where it runs down the back of the thigh to an area just above the knee. Here it divides into the tibial and fibular nerves.

Wats pressure points?
You should try acupressure and wear soft padded footwear preferably slip-ons and not shoes. You can also try foot wear with soles designed according to pressure points. Another possibility is excessive pronation which occurs when the foot has a tendency to turn inward and stretch and pull the fascia along with it. This also causes heel pain, and because of the posture pain is also felt in hip, knee, ankle and lower back.
Hope this helps. Take care!
m certainly no expert, but I will say since you mentioned he is wheelchair bound, then pressure is exerted on pressure points on his feet. If he has spasticity and his foot is pressing on certain aspects of his foot (ie: lateral/side, heels, ball of feet, etc.) then what that does is decrease blood flow to that area and can cause ulcerations after consistent pressure. It is even worse if his protein levels (albumin) are low.
Look up there pressure points to induce labor, there's different spots on your feet that can cause contractions when you apply pressure. I've been trying this for 2 weeks and nothing so far :/ hope you have better luck!

There are various other things you can try such as especially designed insoles, night splints and wraps.
Some people say that certain pressure on the ankles or inner thighs or certain points in the foot can cause contractions or start labour. (There are people who offer labour inducing massage actually.) For foot massages I've heard to avoid them until after 12 weeks pregnant just to be safe since everyone is always so worried about miscarriage in the first trimester.
I am a hairdresser/nail tech. There are definitely pressure points you need to avoid during pregnancy. Make sure you tell your nail tech that you're pregnant and she should avoid those points in your ankles. Also, you shouldn't get any type of massaging done in the first trimester. Massaging releases toxins in your body which can be potentially harmful to your newly growing baby.
Hello all,
I am reposting this because my thread closed - took me awhile to get some of my lab results - I have had the pain for about 10 years and docs have not been able to id. So, thought I might see if anyone has any other thoughts. I have pain when I stand, walk, seat or lay down (this is e order of level of pain as well - standing is the worse). When I stand the bottom of my feet will throb.
