What does the plantar fascia do
supports foot from downward pressure
heel contustion

pes planus
flat or fallen medial longitudinal arch
pes cavus
high arch higher than normal medial longitudinal arch accompanies excessive supination
plantar fasciitis
general heel pain poor running technique length discrepancy tight calves in correct shoes catch all for foot pain
jones fracture
fracture of disphysis atbase of 5th metatarsal most common acute fracture
march fracture
over use chronic 2nd metatarsal caused by structural deformities training errors bad shoes
turf toe
sprain due to hyperextension of mtp joint of great toe acute or overuse
subungal hematoma
blood under toenail blunt force to toe repetative shearing force
metatarsal arch strain
hypermobility of metatarsals
What is a specific symptom of pes cavus
excessive supination
Which fracture takes longer to heal
jones fracture
How to treat a subungual hematoma
nail drill ice elevation release pressure
How to treat an ingrown toenail
trim nails correctly soak in warm water cut a v and insert cotton underneath the nail to lift it up
