Metatarsalgia Symptoms and Causes

There are some symptoms and causes that you will find in Metatarsalgia that are predominant;

  • Symptoms of Metatarsalgia – Metatarsalgia may cause a sharp and burning pain in the ball of your foot, just behind your toes. The pain may feel worse when you stand or walk. Many have described it as the feeling of a bunched-up sock or pebble in their shoe.
  • Main Causes of Metatarsalgia – Intense training and activities where there is much impact on the balls of the feet are one of the main causes of Metatarsalgia, especially in runners. Foot deformities such as Metatarsalgia and Hammertoes, caused by narrow fitting and unsupportive shoes, can also lead to Metatarsalgia. Certain foot shapes, main individuals with higher arches, may be more prone to Metatarsalgia. Certain stress factors, as well as conditions including Morton’s Neuroma, may likewise lead to Metatarsalgia. Then again, wearing narrow-fitting shoes that provide no cushioning or arch support increases your chances of getting Metatarsalgia and will worsen the condition.
  • Risk Factors – There are a few things that may increase your risk of developing Metatarsalgia. Inflammatory arthritis and other foot problems such as hammertoes and calluses are a small factor, as well as being overweight. However, the largest risk factors are wearing high-heeled and unsupportive or ill-fitting shoes while taking part in high-impact activities. Activities such as jumping and running that impact the balls of your feet can lead to Metatarsalgia.
  • Complications – Though Metatarsalgia is not that serious, it can lead to pain in other parts of the body, and it can affect your other foot, if left untreated, Metatarsalgia may lead to the lower back and hip pain, due to limping from foot pain.
