What Are the Functions of Foot Muscles?

#HerndonVA Hello, this is Doctor Stanley Idiculla, your favorite podiatrist in Herndon. Today I would like to talk to you about foot muscles. Everyone knows why muscles of the arm are important, but not many people know why foot muscles are necessary.

Muscles in the feet are of utmost importance to the body as they serve two functions: they allow your foot to bend and move, including your toes, and they provide support and structure for the arches, which help you to keep your proper balance.

Sometimes repeated stress can cause injury to the muscles of the foot. If you’ve been experiencing foot pain, I invite you to visit my office in Herndon.

Guarding Against Flatfoot

#HerndonVA You may have heard the stories of others that have developed flatfoot, and have been a bit concerned about developing the condition yourself.

Hi, I’m Doctor Stanley Idiculla, a podiatrist in Herndon, and I have good news for you.

There are some simple steps that you can take to avoid flatfoot. One of the most significant things that you can do for yourself is to buy shoes with good arch support. Don’t just shop for fashion; shop for orthopedic value. Secondly, losing a few extra pounds can help guard against the condition as arch muscles sometimes collapse because of weight.

If you already notice that your foot has lost its natural arch, come to my office in Herndon at your earliest convenience, so that we can stop the issue from progressing into further problems.

What is the Medial Plantar Nerve?

#HerndonVA Most of us don’t give thought to the nerves in our feet, at least until those nerves are pinched or are affected by other disorders.

I’m Doctor Stanley Idiculla, a foot doctor in Herndon, and I would like to teach you today about a very important nerve in the foot called the medial plantar nerve.

The main job of the medial plantar nerve is to support the longitudinal arch of the foot and also to flex the joint of the big toe. The name of the muscle that is directly affected by, or dependent on, the nerve is called the flexor hallucis bervis. When the medial plantar nerve connects to the lateral plantar nerve, a painful condition develops called morton’s neuroma.

If you are dealing with foot pain and suspect that it might be a nerve condition, come visit me, Doctor Idiculla, at my podiatry office in Herndon.
