Adult Acquired Flat Foot Deformity: Why Ultrasound Scanning Can Help 👣

Adult Acquired Flat Foot Deformity is a common cause of foot pain and disability, and accurate assessment is key to effective treatment. Ultrasound scanning is a safe, non-invasive tool that can provide valuable insights.

Benefits of ultrasound for Adult acquired flat foot deformity:

• Accurate diagnosis: Ultrasound can detect tendon tears, degeneration, thickening, or inflammation, which may not be obvious on physical exam alone.
• Assess severity: Helps determine whether the tendon is partially or fully compromised, guiding the intensity and type of treatment.
• Monitor progression: Scans can track changes over time, allowing clinicians to adjust rehabilitation or bracing strategies.
• Guide treatment decisions: Ultrasound can inform whether conservative care (orthoses, bracing, exercises) is likely to be effective or if surgical consultation is needed.
• Injection guidance: If injections are indicated, ultrasound ensures precise placement, reducing risk to surrounding structures.

Ultrasound is a valuable tool in managing PTTD. It helps clinicians tailor treatment to the tendon’s condition, monitor progress, and improve outcomes, all without invasive procedures.

Adult Acquired Flat Foot Deformity: How Foot Orthoses and Bracing Can Help 👣

Adult Acquired Flat Foot Deformitynoccurs when the arch of the foot collapses, often due to weakening of the posterior tibial tendon and supporting ligaments. While the condition can progress over time, foot orthoses and bracing can play a key role in managing symptoms and slowing progression.

How they help:
• Offloading: Custom orthoses or braces provide structural support, reducing strain on the tendon and ligaments.
• Reduce pain: By taking pressure off stressed structures, they can make walking and daily activities more comfortable.
• Delay or prevent surgery: In many cases, proper orthotic support can slow the progression of deformity and improve function.

Orthoses and braces are a crucial part of managing adult acquired flat foot. Supporting the foot properly can reduce pain, improve mobility, and protect the foot from further damage.

Do you have a painful, flat foot? 👣

Adult Acquired Flat Foot Deformity is a condition where the arch of the foot gradually collapses in adulthood, often leading to pain, stiffness, and difficulty walking.

Key points:
• Cause: Most commonly due to dysfunction or weakening of the posterior tibial tendon, which supports the arch of the foot. Other factors include arthritis, injury, or long-term overuse.
• Symptoms: Flattening of the arch, rolling in of the ankle, swelling and pain on the inside of the foot or ankle.
• Progression: The condition usually develops slowly. Early stages may cause only mild discomfort, but over time it can lead to significant deformity and functional limitations.
• Management: Early intervention can include supportive footwear, orthoses, and exercises. More advanced cases may require bracing or surgical correction.

Adult acquired flat foot affects function and mobility. Early assessment and treatment can prevent progression and reduce pain.

Shockwave Therapy for Achilles Tendinopathy 🦶

Achilles tendinopathy can be frustratingly slow to heal. Shockwave therapy is a treatment that’s gained attention, but how does it help?

• Stimulates healing: Shockwave delivers targeted energy to the tendon, encouraging tissue repair and improving blood flow
• Reduces pain: It can help calm long-standing tendon pain, making it easier to carry out exercises and daily activity.
• Adjunct, not replacement: Shockwave therapy works best when combined with a structured loading program and load management.
• Non-invasive option: Unlike surgery, shockwave is a non-invasive treatment with no downtime.

Bottom line:
Shockwave therapy doesn’t “fix” the tendon instantly, but it can stimulate healing and reduce pain when used alongside the right exercise and load management plan. For stubborn Achilles pain, it’s a valuable part of the toolbox.
