Common Causes of Foot Pain

The foot is a complex structure, making it vulnerable to various issues. Common causes of foot pain include:

Plantar Fasciitis: Inflammation of the tissue that connects the heel to the toes.

Arthritis: Joint inflammation and stiffness caused by osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis.

Bunions: A deformity where the big toe moves inward, causing a bump on the side of the foot.

Heel Spurs: Bony growths on the heel bone that cause pain when walking.

Neuropathy: Nerve damage, often from diabetes, that causes tingling or burning sensations.

Flat Feet: A lack of arch support that can lead to pain and fatigue.

Achilles Tendonitis: Inflammation of the Achilles tendon caused by overuse.

Symptoms That Require Attention

Foot pain can appear in different forms, including:

  • Sharp, stabbing pain
  • Swelling or redness
  • Difficulty walking or standing
  • Numbness or tingling
  • Stiffness or limited movement

If you experience any of these symptoms, seek care from a podiatrist to prevent complications.

When to Visit a Podiatrist in NYC for Foot Pain

Foot pain can interfere with daily activities, especially in a busy city like New York. You should see a podiatrist if:

  • The pain persists for more than a week.
  • You have a foot or ankle injury.
  • There are visible deformities like bunions or hammertoes.
  • You notice signs of infection, such as redness or warmth.
