"IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A SERIOUS SOLUTION TO YOUR FOOT CARE PROBLEMS AT AN AFFORDABLE PRICE, LOOK TO ORTHO-DYNAMICS FOOT ORTHOTICS AND FOOT CARE PRODUCTS " Ortho-Dynamics Orthotics Laboratory has designed, engineered and manufactured high quality foot orthotics since 1988.

Our core business is the fabrication of custom (prescription) orthotics, servicing Podiatrists, Orthopedists and other Foot Care Specialists throughout the United States and Canada. In 1997, in an attempt to provide the consumer with a high quality over-the-counter orthotic, we introduced a line of pre-molded orthotics . Most off-the-shelf orthotics are simply insoles made from nothing more than different density cellular foams or sponge rubber materials. They may provide some shock absorption and cushioning, but little (if any) functional support, control or stability. Our shoe inserts are true "biomechanical" orthotics, not flimsy rubber insoles!

Heel spur syndrome An intense, sharp pain at the bottom of the heel may be caused by a heel spur. Learn what a heel spur is and how it is treated. The heel of a persons foot consists of the heel bone, a pad of fat which acts as a protective cushion and a layer of thickened skin. An intense, sharp pain at the bottom of the heel may be caused by a heel spur. This growth of extra bone on the calcaneus or heel bone is believed to form when the connective tissue that extends from the heel bone to the base of the toes pulls excessively on the heel. As this extra bone forms it causes a continuous pain that seems to become less painful as the foot adjusts to it. Certain disorders such as an abnormal flatness of the arch and sole of the foot, as well as those that cause the heel cord to always be contracted can increase the risk of heel spur. During the time that a heel spur is developing it can be especially painful while a person is walking. From time to time a fluid pocket called a bursa will develop beneath the spur causing inflammation. Known as inferior calcaneal bursitis, this condition will usually cause a throbbing type of pain. But it is possible for a bursa to form even when a heel spur is not present. As the heel spur develops the pain may diminish becoming very painful if the area is injured. This is often known to occur in those who play sports. A heel spur can be diagnosed by a doctor during any ordinary physical examination. By pressing the center of the heel the doctor will find a painful area when a heel spur is present. In most cases an x-ray will be taken to confirm the diagnosis even though newly formed spurs may not be detected.

106. Plantar Fasciitis And Other Causes Of Heel Pain - April 15, 1999 - American Acad Plantar fasciitis is often referred to as heel spur syndrome in the literature Endoscopic plantar fasciotomy for chronic plantar fasciitis/heel spur http://www.aafp.org/afp/990415ap/2200.html

Advanced Search AAFP Home Page Journals Vol. 59/No. 8 (April 15, 1999) Plantar Fasciitis and Other Causes of Heel Pain STEPHEN L. BARRETT, D.P.M. Spring, Texas ROBERT O'MALLEY, D.P.M. Columbia Kingwood Hospital Kingwood, Texas The most common cause of heel pain is plantar fasciitis. It is usually caused by a biomechanical imbalance resulting in tension along the plantar fascia. The diagnosis is typically based on the history and the finding of localized tenderness. Treatment consists of medial arch support, anti-inflammatory medications, ice massage and stretching. Corticosteroid injections and casting may also be tried. Surgical fasciotomy should be reserved for use in patients in whom conservative measures have failed despite correction of biomechanical abnormalities. Heel pain may also have a neurologic, traumatic or systemic origin. P lantar fasciitis, the most common cause of heel pain, may have several different clinical presentations. Although pain may occur along the entire course of the plantar fascia, it is usually limited to the inferior medial aspect of the calcaneus, at the medial process of the calcaneal tubercle. This bony prominence serves as the point of origin of the anatomic central band of the plantar fascia and the abductor hallucis, flexor digitorum brevis and abductor digiti minimi muscles. Plantar fasciitis is often referred to as "heel spur syndrome" in the literature and the medical community, but the label is a misnomer. This vague and nonspecific term incorrectly suggests that osseous "spurs" (inferior calcaneal exostoses) are the cause of pain rather than an incidental radiographic finding. There is no correlation between pain and the presence or absence of exostoses

Whether you run marathons, play pro-basketball, or take an occasional walk through the park, you can develop painful heel spurs. Marjorie Greshy, Patient "If you have this pain, it does limit everything you do. And if you're an active person or even if you like to walk, you can't do it." Majorie says the inflamed ligaments make it difficult to walk without pain. They often sideline her from activities she loves like golf and tennis.
