I love that Immesceo has already written what I was going to suggest. I do have a cane, but in PT the therapist said she prefers the walking poles/sticks instead. When you walk with a cane, the tendency is to lean forward and down. With a walking pole if you hold it correctly you arm is more straight out and it encourages better posture.
I know the cane/stick/pole is humbling, but even worse would be broken bones from a fall.
she needs to have cooling to her hands and feet during the chemo, stay clear away from any heated material, loose clothes, hot food, tepid showers, go to the Doxil site and read their info on hand and foot syndrome there they give you the answers.
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.
Now still i have some issues like body paid, sleepy mode, and few days back i notice that in both legs swelling if forming and getting difficulty of pain in the foot and joints including walking difficulties. could please help me these all the post viral fantique syndrome of dengue and i have consult doctor or it may be new disease since there is swelling on both legs, need to check the kidney functions ?
Keep in mind that you will burn more calories if you walk faster, walk uphills, and walk for longer periods of time. Believe it or not, walking sticks and trekking poles have also been shown to increase calories burned and aid with weight loss. You might find that when you do lose some weight, your knees/feet will hurt less.
every couple of days i get this vibration in my left foot. i changed the shoes i was wearing and it seemed to go away. do you think that was the problem? i stand on my feet for 7hrs at work i can feel it vibrating and it bothers me. i even feel it when i sit down. my back hurts when i wear different shoes which seems to stop the problem. i wear k swiss sneakers with a good sole and my back dont hurt i wore them for about 2 months then i noticed this vibration.
(I know its hard to imagine, but this is what I have noticed) A few days later I can see the blister like things again on my foot and almost in the exact same spot. Now that area of the foot becomes extremely painful when I begin walking/running (exercise) and almost becomes unbearable and find myself having to lay down and get off my feet for any comfort. These blister things don't itch they just become very painful.
It is good to know that there is a current support group for foot drop. I was stopped in traffic in 2009 and rear ended, two days later a sharp pain shot down my leg and 2 days after that I had complete foot drop. I like to call my gait, like a gazelle, it is not nearly that pretty, but it helps to cope. I had surgery in January 2010 to help the nerve decompress, and had therapy until December of 2010.
Glad to know that you have found out that your husband has athlete's foot.
Washing his feet every day and drying well in between the toes and applying the cream will help. You can also get antifungal talc too.
Tell your husband not to try on other people's boots and to not allow them to use his. Walking bare foot in shower rooms and round swimming pools is another area to watch. Athlete's Foot as you know is a fungus and fungus love warm, dark, moist places.
After partial knee replacement I lost feeling in my foot. i now can move my toe, but still can't feel it. Does movement in my toe mean I am starting to get the feeling back?
s and is not overweight,has no injury to her feet ,buy she is having a very hard time walking,most of the time she is limping,and has taken to wearing house shoes,this has been going on for some months now . Could this be something to worry about ? She has four children.
Whatsoever is like everything. Let’s say if you injure your foot and you still walking then is “ normal “ . I will encourage to take the full test and let us know how it goes . My doctor has a million and 1 excuse since their medical ethics prohibited from “ giving bad news “. Basically I am 2-3 millimetersaeay from “ normal “ mácula RPE .
Eagles have just recently come back to Iowa and it's really exciting to see. They have a soft spot in my heart. :)

Portann, enjoy your birdwatching event - sounds great!
I am a power lineman and I climb poles. The actual climbing gaffs strap right around the area where the screws are below the knee and at the ankle. Just curious how long I could expect to be off work, discomfort level, etc. Thanks for any info.
I have taken for 3 years metformin for tip 2 diabetis.I have a burning foot for 3 days.What I can do?
t been able to help me organize a successful walking routine. Anyone out there who knows about foot drop, knows about the pain and fatigue associated with it. Especially in my back and ankles the pain is horrible. The more I push myself the worse the pain and fatigue get. Does anyone have any input?
