Athletes with poor foot mechanics are more prone to sustaining lower extremity injuries.\u00a0\u00a0 As your body tries to compensate for any anomalies, your muscles, joints and tendons are placed under excessive stress.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s important that athletes visit their local podiatrist in Indian Harbor Beach or\u00a0Altamonte Springs, FL\u00a0for athorough assessment of their biomechanics at the first sign of a problem or pain, including footdiscomfort, poor balance, or unexplained corns and calluses. An assessment of your low limbs will help identify what happens in your legs and feet when you walk, stand and run.\u00a0 \u00a0A professional evaluation is critical for successful prevention and treatment of any injury or condition.<\/p>\n<p>Many sport injuries can be traced back to biomechanical problems including:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Sprained ankles<\/li>\n<li>Back pain<\/li>\n<li>Hip pain<\/li>\n<li>Shin splints<\/li>\n<li>Calluses and corns<\/li>\n<li>Plantar fasciitis<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Once our podiatrist\u00a0has identified the problem and cause of your pain, a tailor made treatment plan can be created to restore your lower extremities and feet back to their normal function, thus improving your game. Treatment may involve one or more of the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Exercises and therapy to stretch or strengthen muscles<\/li>\n<li>Orthotic devices that are worn inside the shoe to control, realign or cushion the abnormalities, thus reducing discomfort<\/li>\n<li>Footwear modifications<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Don\u2019t let poor foot biomechanics compromise your game. Whether you are a full-time athlete or the weekend warrior, your podiatrist can help you return to your favorite sport activity.
