Any idea what I can do if I get this in soccer boots? I tried a pair of arch sullort insoles but I didn’t like playing with them in
hi. i need help. my wife’s left feet is aching for almost 2years. she cant walk properly anymore.
I started getting numbness on the left side of my right foot i all so think i have drop foot but im not sure because i feel i have been buying the wrong size sneakers for years can anyone help.
I play football in middle school and my top of my right toe has been tingle for about two weeks
I’ve had a calloused big toe for a long time and I’ve always thought I was weird because I do exactly what you described in the video…I bend my feet inward and my big toe does not bend properly even though I am in good shape otherwise. Good to know I’m not the only one and it is treatable, thank you.
My foot get so ticklish by moving it sometimes, please help. ;_;
I feel the tingling in my pinky toe when I do that tap to the tasal. Pain is constant, though, and it is worse.
Awesome video! Currently suffering from it and was loosing my hopes in running, was diagnosed with tendinitis and did some physio but it didn’t do much, the pain in the morning would come back. Yesterday I tried your advise and rolled my foot over a metal water bottle and bought the Strasbourg socks, first day in few months I don’t feel the same pain in the morning, I can see recovery on the horizon, can’t thank you enough!!
Do your feet or toes go numb when you exercise? Podiatrist Larry Huppin can help!
I’ve been suffering with plantar fasciitis for almost a year now. I’ve tried almost all the things you mentioned. The one thing that has helped me the most is, ironically, barefoot walking. I had many people tell me not to walk barefoot, but I started to notice that my feet felt better when I wasn’t working and putting on shoes. I finally feel like I’m starting to heal now that I spend much more time barefoot and in barefoot style shoes. Maybe it won’t work for everyone, but it works for me!
My left leg and foot feels heavy particularly when I put on shoes.
Any advice on how to relieve / heal the feet / toes after it happens? I just started working a job, which has me on my feet walking around non-stop for around 6-8 hours a day, and have numb / tingling issues primarily in the toe near the pinky on my right foot which hasn’t gone away for around a week now.
Not an interesting vidio she is only talking about numbness
I love these two… they are so funny but have a wealth of information
I\’m not sure but,if anyone else is searching for best home remedies for sciatic nerve pain try Basarto Sciatica Treater Blueprint (just google it )? Ive heard some decent things about it and my cousin got excellent success with it.
Hi guys, my left foot and whole leg goes numb everytime I sit on toilet for long periods of time.
Hello I like your video, especially the advice about home remedies for sciatica exercises
. Another resource I also found useful for how to get rid of sciatic nerve back pain
was Panlarko Effective Sciatica Planner find it on google if you want
My thigh has a little numb spot, its not tingly and it doesn’t hurt, and I can still get a reaction from the rest of it.
What about truck drivers symptoms bouncing in seat and pushing down hard on gas pedal equals sore lumbar spine and numbness in right leg top to bottom been off work 21 months and physio and deep tissue massage and chiropractic care not solving 100 percent only recommendation from Neurologist Is to take vitamin B12 500 mg daily
After struggling with it for years, I’ve found definitely backing off running a lot along with regular stretching. One thing that has really helped me is just hitting the gym and working on overall mobility and watching different exercises for hips, knees, ankle mobility, etc along with ankle strengthening.
Hello, I love to watch you guys. I do not have numbness, but I have pain in my leg in the thigh and lower part, when I go to bed. I do not know where to to place my leg. Any suggestions?
Take 4 cloves one glass of water make it hot dring 3 week, per day 3 times
I don’t have numbness. I have severe pain and burning in my right foot.
Numbness in foot. Pins and needles in calf area. It’s just on the left leg. I’m young and healthy so idk if it nerve damages but it seems like it. The pain only happens when I’m standing up or walking, not when sitting or laying. Any suggestions?
Appreciate Video! Forgive me for butting in, I would appreciate your initial thoughts. Have you heard about Dinanlinson Perfect Shape Approach (probably on Google)? It is a great one of a kind product for getting rid of your sciatica minus the normal expense. Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my BF after a lifetime of fighting got great results with it.
Dont think saying avoid barefoot shoes is correct, i run with barefoot shoes and and wear barefoot shoes when ever i leave the house all my other shoes with higher heels are just collecting dust. my running has improved since going barefoot. We arnt born wearing shoes, the design of a ‘Normal’ shoe is poor pushing toes together into a point and making the arches of the foot weak and causing flat foot, making people run with a heel strike which is horrendous, hence why there is so much cushioning in the heel of running shoes to take the shock when your heel hits the floor. Strengthen your feet and use them how nature intended. This will help with plantar fasciitis as the foot becomes naturally stronger. Your feet will also eventually go back to a natural state having a nice arch and wider spread at the toes. Dont discourage people from barefoot just because they gained an injury that dosnt just relate to barefoot running.
I got my medicines mixed up and took 4 Viagra. I’ve had a painful erection for 2 days but I’m embarrassed to go to the E.R. because there is super glue involved and I am a nurse at the only hospital around here.
Even here the guy is complaining that his wife finishes his money in shopping, Dear Lord!! All men everywhere in this world suffer the same thing
I have foot numbness in my heel, right pinky toe & outter side of right foot
It was caused by a impinged sciatica nerve, which I had a Diskectomy for on my L5-S1 Disc
I’m about 5 1/2 weeks post-surgery, and I still have numbness in my heel, and my effected leg
Should I be concerned? Or will it take time for this nerve to heel & for the numbness to go away?
I never considered this as a reason. I’ve always thought that numb or tight feet = not enough protection, so use a thicker sock or even use another sock to minimize friction. I’ve thought for years that I just have weak feet, and that’s probably still true, but this could change things considerably. Thank you!
Can a numb heel & pinky toe caused by a pinched Sciatica from a Herniated s-1 Disc Heal?
Please m6 feet are just tickling pleaseeee help I’m realy crying
Had it earlier this year for trying to increase my training from 10k race to 22k race in a month. Needless to say, 19k training damaged something in my knee and gave me plantar fasciitis. I rested from running (not swimming) for 2-3 months and massaged my foot with a tennis ball. It worked great and haven’t felt any pain in about 6 months
Thanks for a great presentation. I had the same problem after 3 hrs of continuous stop and go driving. It is improving 2d later but not enuff. How do I get the nerves to recover?
Hello Dr. Even with custom orthotics my left foot only my left foot mind you goes numb after 2 to 2.5 hours of riding. I purchased larger and wider specific shoes. Wide pedals complete with the wider cleats. All types of foot beds, played with cleat and saddle position. Nothing seems to help. Have you got any more tricks up your sleeve. I live too far from you to visit. Thx much
Can i say thank you i was wondering why my foot was hurting after runs and turning what looked like purple like it was bruised. I’m going to add the prevention to my techniques from now on and not increase my distance until I can get through without pain. I would just like to ask would you recommend an insole for running?
I’m so frustrated, I have the top foot pain you’re talking about, after identifying diabetes though through a blood test all my doctor wanted to do was put me on Metformin and send me for an ultrasound cause she said my foot was cold(my feet are always cold, have been for many years!). I’ve been trying to get back xrays for months now but primary doctors don’t seem to “believe in chiropractic care” so I continue to suffer + am developing hammer toes! I went to a chiropractor but he said my insurance would not cover it + they wouldn’t treat me without xrays first! Any advice?
Both of my feet are numb. I’m thinking I may have did something at the gym maybe hip abductor machine, no pain anywhere else. Ideas?
I have foot numbness for almost 4 months.. I have difficulty in walking and pains if i walk a short distance.. Please help me
she is telling what everyone knows, nothing about what can be done for numbness, not convincing at all.
Asics will sort out half of the issues. ONs like nice, good for racing no doubt, light. But for training, use asics.
You didn’t really cover the foot. I have numbness in my toes starting from the middle of the ball of the foot, mainly the middle toes. Mostly just the right foot but milder in the left. I spent around 20 years standing on a hard floor as a shopkeeper and hoped it would resolve when I retired, it hasn’t. Any idea what is causing this and any exercises you can suggest? No pain, just the numbness.
what is going on when my right middle finger bends to the right hand index finger on its own like a spasm hum my reaction is to cross my fingers ^^ I hold a cell phone for over 1 hour left had or right my pinky fingers go to sleep
thank you for all your great videos have a great day ^^
take care
I`m a nurse and a plantar pain sufferer for a couple of years. I got plantar fasciitis remedy “Sαnkυnzο Kdα” (Google it) and a couple of days of sticking to it my discomfort is completely over. I don’t suffer the condition any more since I stop utilizing meds and it`s easy to determine whether there`s still any pain remaining…
I was looking for info on numbness in the foot resulting from the sciatic nerve.
Just started having Plantar Fasciitis pain as I start a training for my next marathon. Is it safe to keep running while treating the condition? I only have a short 12 weeks before the race, and I want to avoid missing training if possible.
You spoke so fast in a strong American accent I couldnt understand what you were saying
Too much info for such a specific title… I came for feet and got EVERYTHING!!!
9:30 Do it with your hand while keeping fingers of another hand on the fascia: as soon as you feel tension in the fascia, stop further stretching and hold for 30 seconds. Repeat few times.
This works as treatment too.
Great presentation,, Many thanks from Lismore NSW Australia..
What I get in this video is that I want to shift to On Cloud.
I am 23years old and my left leg has been numb from wen I remember I was in middle school
I’ve been waiting for this… thanks for this crucial information.
I have spent months researching into cures for plantar fasciitis and found an awesome resource at Natural Foot Wizard (google it if you’re interested)
Excellent presentation. I have asked different sports people, sneaker stores etc. why this happens and no one had the answer. Thank you for addressing this topic!
There are many factors in relieving sciatica pain at home. One place I discovered that successfully combines these is the Barneys Back Aid (google it if you’re interested) without a doubt the most helpful resource that I’ve heard of. look at the unbelievable information.
The side of my left upper leg is numb and it’s been like that for days
Anyone know what it might be?
Lost the feeling of my left leg after giving birth. Its been 2 weeks and it’s still numb. I can still feel it and I am able to walk better but I can’t dorsiflex
I’ve been suffering from this for I guess 4 months. Only after I just watched this, my foot started to recover. I love you. 😉
your so slow at getting the point out. the video is about foot going numb when running. man you was so fucking boring i swear i dropped to sleep
a section of my right leg just below my knee has been numb for the last 15 hours. I am so worried
I fell on my butt and now have tingling, numbness and weakness in my legs
I’ve been researching into plantar foot treatments and discovered a great resource at Natural Foot Wizard (google it if you are interested)
ive been having numbness and warmth on the left side of my body but its only on the left side of my arm and the left side of my arm and im really concerned and scared about it can unplease respond and tell me what i should do������
I have a friend that just went through chemo, she had her uterus removed and one of the side effects are that her legs go numb and she gets really cold. Can this be a side effect to the chemo or is her body lacking something?
Lose the sunglasses and get your point across. When you stammer along like this, it makes it appear that you don’t really know what you are talking about…
Really useful tips. Unfortunately I had treatment from an osteopath who wrenched the ankle so badly causing a syndesmotic sprain. I have been unable to run for a number of years and am now having an operation, so hopefully on the road to recovery, but prevention definitely better than “cure” in my case!
I have a pulled groin.it started less than 2 years ago.From then on i am experiencing numbness on my legs and feet.I have take a sit evenn at the middle of the road because its getting to weak.
my feet get cold and numb some nights keeping me up. When i wrap it in a tensor bandage, i get relief. What is my problem?
5:54 This is incorrect. You may temporarily ease the pain by using “high heel” shoes, but not eliminate the cause.
Who do I need to see for this? My doctors have no idea what to do
It was plantar fasciitis that shut me down from running several years ago. Took all summer to heal properly-but that’s what led to me to discover the joys of swimming and cycling! And a triathlete was born! Now I’m a much more balanced athlete.
Thanks! You guys are very helpful. My foot tendinitis improved more by following your instruction than by going to physical therapy sessions. It didn’t help that they gave me students for every session:(
Yep. Didn’t follow 10% rule and PF came on following a 10 mile run with hill attacks in the final 2 miles. Realised what it was and stopped running which I think stopped it becoming really acute pain, but it took a year of almost no running for the constant level 2 pain / dull throb to subside. Stretching, ice bottle rolling, hot water bottle in the morning all helped, but I think 4 sessions with a physio and shockwave therapy really made the difference in the end. I was also driving a lot for work and constantly on/off the clutch probably didn’t help. Switching to an automatic at the same time as physio might have helped too.
I slep the whole day with my legs crossed and when I woke up my right leg was all numb I just laughed and it was just… weird as I tried to walk and it was like I was walking on air. But it wasn’t nothing bad it went away in 30 seconds and it didn’t hurt.
Stretch your calves before every run and cycling session. 45 sec per leg, 3x. If you get a tear in your plantar fascia and have scar tissue, Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy is your best way to get back into running.
When i once sat for a long time my legs have been slighty numb and it never went away
I know u said we shouldn’t do it but for me start running barefoot cure early symptoms by strengthening all foot muscles. My wife had a worst condition and she tried everything. After over a year she get specially made 3d printed hill insoles and after another 6 months or more she finally managed to cure it.
I can’t lift my left toes up. Any suggestions? Anyone else suffering from this? My back was aching for two weeks straight
Really useful tips. Unfortunately I had treatment from an osteopath who wrenched the ankle so badly causing a syndesmotic sprain. I have been unable to run for a number of years and am now having an operation, so hopefully on the road to recovery, but prevention definitely better than “cure” in my case!
Thank you DR. Larry for your info. I did looked at my old cycling shoes and there was the dif. my old shoes had more of an arch. I switch the cleats back to my old cycling shoes and no more numbness of my toes. THANK YOU very much. DR. LARRY
That feeling when you finish a GTN video and you level up 10 ‘smart points’
Hi Mr. Shoe ranger I followed your advice and I even made it slightly more loose than in the video and the numbness is mostly gone. Now i can run for a long while without stopping. Thank you verrrrrrry much for your video and God bless you ��������
Had it twice before, cortisone injections cured it both times after exhausting everything else. Got it coming on again. Always had a problem with tight calves and always working on them.
Holy cow Brad!! I did not know you were a big star. You helped my father in law with his shoulder last winter. I saw dr Tennants video on the teeth an their connection to the energy meridians. Pops had 16 teeth pulled and he is like a new man. Wait till you see him. Anyhow i saw your vid and freed up my femoral nerve myself. You guys have shared your knowledge and experience an i have benifited. Thanks again for all your dedication. Great to see our hometown team on youtube.
I have experienced this twice. Both times cause of cycling, not running. First time I did a lot of mileage using cheap MTB shoes, this can be prevented using shoes with stiffer soles that distributes the pressure better. The second time I got it I was doing hard sessions on an indoor bike at the gym using normal running shoes. That was just plain stupid.
It took a while for me to figure out is was from cycling the first time because a lot of the information on the internet pointed to running.
I controversially found barefoot helped me loads and built up foot strength. With good stretches and using my vivobarefoots I have found it cleared my foot pain. All the supportive things weakened my feet and made it worst.
This video helped me so much as my legs are so stiff and I do have a herniated disc in my lower back so I love the video keep it up Bob and Brad I also find you to very entertaining
Just the shoe in the thumbnail will cause problems for you. Shoes with a drop will fuck up your knees and ankles.
If you have neuropathy in the face could it be caused by an disk issues in your neck?
The consistent discomfort nearly made me lose my head. My ailment made me feel scared and miserable. I was able to cope with my condition when I began trying out this plantar fasciitis treatment called “Sαnkυnzο Kdα” (Google it). The results I`ve been getting speak for themselves in just a week I was totally pain free!.
Hi please dr tabasam help me i am suffring from this numbness.n can not sleep please give me ur address n fon no.dont b long
What do you recommend excises wise for spondylolisthesis, with foriminal stenosis? That has been my back issue prognosis L4 L5 The doctor recommends a TLIF. Thoughts?
I tend to get intense pain in my front part of the foot, the first 1/3 of the foot.
Right in the middle.
Feels like the bones in the front foot are made of pure pain!
What is that condition and what is it called?
After I walk very long or far, my right leg starts getting pins and needles and my right foot starts to drag some… and I don’t do any of these! My SI joint had been acting up for over a year…
Had this for the past 11 months in both feet! I’d definately reccommend sorting it as soon as you get it. The only thing I’ve found to help is to rest between excersizing. And running on fields feels way better than tarmac
You guys are so helpful. Thank you so much for making these videos!
What tips do you have to recover from Plantar Fasciitis? Leave us a comment!
When I was running my right feet stuck in mud and bend and I developed a Lumb on the right side of feet. Its just a little but smaller than a golf boll size. Its pain when I walk. What is it? Is it something serious?
It would be helpful to know to which cause your stretch or exercise applies. A dull or numb foot can be caused by spine nerve root pinch, piriformis or even achillies and others, and you need to be clear which cause you are addressing with any particular action.
There are several components to curing for plantar foot. One place I discovered that succeeds in merging these is the Natural Foot Wizard (google it if you’re interested) without a doubt the no.1 treatment i’ve heard of.Check out the super info.
Last Friday, I got new Sandles that I realize it kept falling and realize the only sandals I can only wear is sandals with ankle strap, I forgot it this time and got one with only back ankle support and I kept falling off every time I step forward.not whole front ankle support, so I went the whole day using my toe to grab the shoe from falling off because it kept dropping and I had to pick up the shoe to wear back. Also I forgot to mention I have split disc there that is still there but in the numb that I used to had in 2016 has gone bu would come back for abit to frighten me when I get out of bed. So I don’t know did I affect more harm with the area that already harm.
I’m a Licensed Massage Therapist. I run, stretch, roll, receive massage. The important factor in treating Plantar Fasciitis is improving the ability to move the ankle joint. Dorsiflexion and extension. If the ankle joint is stiff it’ll steal movement from the plantar muscle. When the plantar muscle becomes overstretched, overused you will develop Plantar fasciitis. Runners take the time to prepare your body before you run. As well as doing body maintenance after you run. stretch, Roll, go for a massage!!! How does your car run when you fail to do the maintenance?!
Great video. I suffered from this while training for the London Marathon. I found that sleeping face down (my preferred way) with a firm pillow under my ankle making my foot 90° to my shin. I’ll be trying these to prevent and treat it again if it comes back
I feel like the sole of my foot is cramping up. Is this a sign of plantar facitisi?
I heard that getting another pair of running shoes could help.
How do I take care of burning sencation in my right leg and home remedies
These Yoga Asana can be done to prevent Plantar Fasciitis: Prarambhik Sthiti, Vajrasana, Ashwa Sanchalanasana, Tadasana, Druta Utkatasana, Parvatasana, Pada Angushthasana (Advance level) [Ref. Book: Asana Pranayama Mudra Bandha / ISBN 978-81-86336-14-4]
I been having numbness on both feet, bottom of my feet, all my toes, and like burning feeling, sharp pains every now and then, its been hard to sleep at night, I’ve seen Dr’s and Chiropractors but nothing works, its been almost 3 years already, it just seems to be getting worst
I have had circulation problems for long time when I was 5 I had cancer and lost my ability to walk for a hole year and went through a hole year of chemo then at 11 i was diegnosed with epilepsy i had a seizure almost every day sometimes more then obe a day so i fell down stairs out of stuff never broke anything i also gave sprand my anchle a few times to do to that every time I squat down I lose circulation amedietly and my feet fall right asleep or if I sit criss cross but also every once in awhile I get circulation pains in my right lower leg that feel like pure pressure on the front of my leg and my foot will fall asleep real easily as well. I’m only 19 and feel like I already have just as many body aches as my grandparents.
What does it mean when there is a tightness in your right calf muscle than you feel a deadness in your upper leg?
Got that for 9 months, tried stretching, self massage, physio massage, mesotherapy, specific sole, shockwave, and a bunch of other stuff with no success, pain is still here ��
But when i started back running, the pain has not increased (and during running i don’t feel it cause of the body heat i think?)
Well anyway this is really a shitty injury!!
Great video, I am a 51 year old male have numbness on both feet, mostly on balls of feet and toes. I DO have stenosis, and I did have a doctor diagnose me with peripheral neuropathy. I do not have any tingling at all, I have tried all kinds of shoe inserts, where running shoes, good shoes, soft padded shoes and I am beyond wits end. 24/7 my feet are numb. They feel like they are encased in wax and are ALOT worse in the morning. They FEEL like they are extremely swollen but look at them and touch them they aren’t. After much reading I truely feel the issue lies in my lumbar area, but the useless ortho doc basically put his hands up in the air after my visit and said I need to go to neuro. MRI of lumbar shows mild stenosis, and he said not enough to cause this. My A1C has been borderline for years but not diabetic. More symptoms, when standing and or walking for long periods my left legs starts to go numb, usually from the knee down, sometimes higher. I ALWAYS have pain in lower back, ALOT worse when standing or walking. I often have bend over often to stretch back to get through it.
Another observation: touching my cervical, ( not always thoracic) and lumbar parts of my spine, it ALWAYS hurts 24/7. I may not feel pain at certain times of the day but any time I touch it it hurts. Didn’t discover this until recently. My mother had all kinds of osteo related issue with her back in her mid 60’s. Basically at that age her back had looked like an S. She had major surgery and had rods and pins put in to fix. I hope this isn’t coming down the pike for me!
I this video inspired to write all of the things down that I want to take to my next doctor’s visit with a Neuro doc. Thanks for the very informative video.
Sincerely
Tom Lefco
Whoever is or had ever suffer from Sciatica nerve, is it possible to feel like your feet are often tingling through the day and also, they feel like they are extremely cold but not when you touch them? If this could be connected to sciatica, please someone has some tips to get rid of all these terrible sensation in the feet. It is a very annoying feeling and it’s gonna end up ruining my beautiful summer. Please, I went to do an RMI, ALL she said was a part of sciatica is affected. If you or someone u know had been through this, please share your tips! I want to get rid of this! Thank you!
I’ve noticed I don’t get it when I train barefoot (muay thai) but when I run I get it even if its like 5-8 km, perhaps I need to get better shoes. But I do walk on my job 20 km +, every day, and after 7 years my pf got healed but then I got it on the other foot �� now I do a lot of stretching and kickboxing but towards the end of summer I’ll start running again.
I gonna see my physiotherapist this week. I have some pain in the morning and had complained of stiff lower calf 3 months ago. Thanks for making this video
It has been 5 years since I experienced plantar fasciitis discomfort and I wasn’t able to stop it by using different medications. When I found plantar fasciitis guidebook “Sαnkυnzο Kdα” (Google it). It required only under a week to alleviate the discomfort completely. I reached the fantastic outcomes 3 months ago and I’m so happy that I no longer feel the discomfort brought on by the problem..
This did not help me at all bcos you did not mention anything what I want to know
Ball rolling, stretching etc is good for temporary relief but, as others also have mentioned in the comments, eccentric calf raises is very effective at actually improving the problematic tissue. This is also backed up by research. A good tip is to do the calf raise/lowering with both a straight knee, as well with a slightly bent knee. That way you’ll work both calf muscles.
Google “Michael Rathleff” and you’ll find information. There are also some good visualization of exercises in this PDF (not in English but you can probably run it through Google translate): https://docplayer.se/storage/24/4008671/1585174175/MGsrP1b7fyL0WvdAUpB_sw/4008671.pdf

First time I’ve had this pain and I listened to the part with rolling my foot on a ball and it’s helped so far!
hey,if anyone else trying to find out plantar fasciitis orthotics try Bablim Plantar Remedy Booster (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now )? Ive heard some unbelievable things about it and my co-worker got excellent success with it.
The sciences has proven that your current body are able to heal sciatica naturally, without the need for any synthetic drugs, suffer from painful surgical treatment, or perhaps changing your diet.
It can take 6 months to recover from Plantar Fasciitis, to fast recovery, a finest massage before sleep, and invest in proper pair of running shoes. ��
It comes and goes on its own. I never knew what it was until this video ->> lol.
Orthotic Insoles worked well for me together with the addition of some of the exercises you showed in the video. Thank you for the information.
I suffered with plantar fasciitis, then also posterial tibial tendonitis. Firstly I had to completely STOP running, in the end it was about 10 weeks. I stayed swimming and upped cycling which caused me no problems. Also I worked with a sports physio and was given many of the exercises in this video. I also work at a desk so often I would have a tennis ball under the desk, and rolling with just socks helped. Another exercise was using strong exercise bands, clamped behind a heavy table away from me, which I then put in front of my foot just below my toes, then pulled in sets of 10. Straight, then in both directions (So pulling foot to each side). I also visited a running podiatrist and now have inserts moulded to my own feet which I move from shoe to shoe. I was amazed that I was only using about 40% of my foot in normal walking / running. The inserts spread the weight bearing load across my whole foot (I have high foot arches). After 10 weeks gradually I started running SLOWLY and building up 10 percent per week.
Hello Dr. i got the numbness and tingling affect after a 10k.. whats the best way to get rid of it and how long does it last / at the end of the race my foot hurt and was really sore but a day after just had the numbness and tingling in the mid front like you showed on the video. what do you recommend i do how long will it take for it to go away?
Not wanna lie I been have numbness since I’m 6 years old and I don’t know what to call it.
I’ve had it last year and it was really frustrating. When it is a heavy one like mine shockwave in combination with exercises really helps. The exercises in this video needed to be done every day, especially the ball and stretches. I also did the exercise with picking up and setting down a bottle in front of me whilst standing on one toe. But as said, relax, progress slowely in miles in running and it will all help!
Another great video on injury caution. Love to get your opinon on Achilles problem. Been having problems for a while now. Comes and goes but the worst times is when I take a break from running.
Do the same exercises that you showed in your video.
After 30 years and passed the 50 mark I think me body is trying to tell something. Lol
I have experienced this when i was skateboarding after work. Now i understand why there is a pain.
Thanks, good advice. Is there a role in rest days to ensure damage buildup is repaired before it becomes cumulative?
What do yall think about the stem cell therapies. mainly for herniated discs
My wife had Plantar Fasciitis a couple of years ago (admittedly from increasing her distances too quickly). The pain went on for several months, she was advised to use a ‘Night Brace’. (Basically a plastic boot that hold the foot rigid). The problem was alleviated very quickly after this. The brace now sits in the wardrobe just in case the dreaded Plantar Fasciitis ever returns.
Whenever I sit with my legs closed for a long period of time, I experience numbness in my feet��������
This was really helpful, thank you �� I think my shoes could be too small for me as I’ve tried different positions (saddle and cleats) but I still get numb feet. Thanks again ��
I get numbness in my feet that radiates throughout my left leg what can that be? No I dont cross my legs but do sit alot
I have suffered plantar fasciitis for 10 years. I ran across a youtube that said use a timer on the straight leg calf stretch and again on the bent knee calf stretch, 2 minutes each. It’s easy enough to stretch for a bit and think you’re done, but using the timer helped lengthen the whole tow-to-knee chain. Now after 2 months I can walk again. I can think about training again. It’s wonderful.
Great suggestions! One more suggestion, which worked for me: wear soft sandals at home to allow your feet to recover after running.
I’m having issues with my ankle locking and feeling weak every time I stand up.. it warms up after 10 to 20 minutes and pain slowly leaves.. but after I sit again it comes back.. any suggestions???
Thank you so much for the video! I am pretty new to running, started about 2 months ago. And a lot of your explanations for why I might be feeling pain are all things I have been doing incorrectly. I will take your advice and make the corrective actions to my training routine. Thanks again
After having plantar fascitis for over a year, and finally recovered, Aside from stretching, massages and insole, I found the one thing that helped me the most was doing calf raises on a step daily. And the key to is to go down very slowly on one leg at the movement! the theory according to my physio was that it is the eccentric loading on the fascia that promotes repair!
I highly recommend doing daily 3×10 calf raises, go up with 2 legs but down slowly with one, it is the downstroke that really counts.
Thank you,,, this was helpful. I have to confess, I was on U tube,, with my ankle resting on my left knee. My phone rang….. got up to get it,, and due to my foot falling asleep,, I went flying across my family room.. smashing my foot into my heavy Mission Style Coffee Table,Thus causing me to be in agony. today is the 4th day, still hurts, but not as bad,, NOW,,, Your Video did tell me a lot, I do have 2 Blown Out discs, which you say can cause this numbness. Makes sense to me, this has happened so much, however,, without these consequences. Am now making myself aware every time I catch myself crossing right leg over onto my knee. So,, again Thank You!
Miserable injury. Painful at night in bed. Tried all the cold cans of coke, golf balls etc. Went to see a physio and the only thing that worked and really was effective (is in the video), was proper stretching of the calf. Gave pretty immediate results once got onto that.
Thanks for the video. Just finally getting over planters Facia still got a bit of pain but have managed to carry on running at a lower intensity.. I now have a pain in the ball of my other foot just behind my second toe. Many Thanks for all your videos
I just have poor blood circulation in my legs. My whole leg was numb and i hate when it starts stinging and tingling
Numbness in the front part of both feet, like you are wearing house slippers. Blood, Diabetes, Nerve, and Circulation test came back good. They only tested the nerve from the knee down though. It started 10 years ago. I also have Vertigo that started 8 years ago. It is not the spinning dizzy it is like I am on a boat. I do have bad ears, but can not figure out the numbness in the front part of my feet.
i stand continuously for up to 8-10 hours daily and over the years I developed some foot pain and now I feel numbness in my knee more so in the right knee
Shoes with a lot of heel drop were very good for my Achilles. I found out the reasoning behind shoe drop is that runners with calf pain or planter fasciitis benefit from more drop. However more drop can cause knee pain, so runners with knee pain should have less drop. The good thing is they tend to be mutually exclusive so if you suffer from knee problems you wont have calf/fascia problems. I think I read this in runner’s world. The New Balance 1400 is my racing flat of choice because it has 10mm of drop, usually flats are low drop.
Any recommendations for numbness caused by cauda equina syndrome?
I’ve been having this problem, so I’m looking forward to trying this. One way you can improve your videos is to stop having these long pauses between things you’re saying.
Josh: I like rolling a ball under my foot as it feels nice.
Heather: Here is a clear and concise anatomical explanation of why you should do it as a means of preventing plantar fasciitis.
Josh (feeling both informed and thoroughly intellectually inferior): Thanks, Heather.
I have my l4 l5 disc surgury. Now my foot drops and tightness in calf muscles and foot tightness. What I’m do now
Could you please do an episode on exercises for tarsal tunnel syndrome? Thank you!
I am so happy that I haven’t had a single recurrence of plantar fasciitis in over a year and a half, since I’ve lost 140 pounds. Pretty sure the weight loss helped that
I have had this problem recently. Very good, learned something today. Thanks. Only time I’m allowed out of the house under lockdown is to exercise.
Another excellent video! Unfortunately I’ve had it and all the advice you gave I’ve used! With the add on of insoles or heel cups, I used Enertor they got me through ironman lanza last year!
bought new Asics shoes went for a 5k… got PF… that was a bummer:/
I had it on the left foot in 2005. Had an injection and started running too soon. Bad idea (the injection), the tissue teared, the foot became unstable. Had to have complex surgery and now run with 4 screws in the foot. Currently experiencing it on the right foot. Stretching, massaging with a baseball and taking sufficient rest between runs helps significantly.
Hey guys, look at this 12 hour ride of Joe Skipper… It thinks he deserves a mention for this achievement in the GTN show;) https://www.strava.com/activities/2611050252
I used a silicon half sock which was amazing and speeded up the recovery loads!
I’m here because my front outer left thigh skin area feels numb. Sometimes has stinging pain
I have a burning/tingling in my big toe but right on the inside edge on tbe edge of the nail. Also had back pain. GP says nothing to worry about. Maybe a muscle over used in back and irritating nerve to the toe. What do you think?
I began dealing with plantar fasciitis over a decade ago and I thought there is nothing that can handle my condition. I was in fact wrong about that since I found and tried this plantar fasciitis treatment method “Sαnkυnzο Kdα” (Google it) 3 weeks ago. The discomfort is now completely gone. I still cannot imagine that I`m cured. I am also pleased for the fact that I was able to cut back over 100 USD on acupuncture..
Wtf. Just was on a doctors visit two hours ago, because of pain in my feet when I wake up… And was diagnosed with Plantar faciitis. Are you guys in my head?
i have it real bad in my right foot, its like walking on a knife!
My right knee is constantly numb and feels like it has fuilds but it never swells up??
Cleat position! Move your cleat back as a starter for 10, relieve pressure on the metatarsals.
Man I hate numb feet.
Worse in the winter as cold also.
Feels really strange pushing the pedals when you can’t feel a thing ��
Please help me my husband he is unable to walk his legs are panning and numbness. From the waist up to to the toes
really good videos. there are very few cycling insoles on the market and even they appear to concentrate on the heel area rather than the foot. ive spent hundreds on trying to get insoles to feel good and work with different shoes. my main issue is always getting a numb big toe. Ive ended up creating my own arch supports for each shoe type to allieviate it. is this the right thing to do?
I’ve not heard this ever mentioned or considered, but it worked for my hot foot situation. After doing all the things associated with fixing hot foot. I raised my saddle about 3mm and viola, problem solved. I did so 1mm at a time over a 30 mile ride. I would start to experience hot foot at about the 10 mile mark and would last the remainder of the ride. Seemed that I was bearing just a little to much weight on my feet resulting in loss of circulation.
