Posterior Tibial Tendonitis, a pivotal contributor to the development of flat feet, manifests when the tendon responsible for supporting the arch becomes inflamed or torn. At Gentle Foot and Ankle Care, we're dedicated to addressing this root cause with precision and care, offering advanced treatments that promise not just relief but a return to functionality and comfort.
Understanding Posterior Tibial Tendonitis and Flat Feet
The posterior tibial tendon plays a critical role in maintaining the arch of the foot. When it's compromised, the arch can gradually fall, leading to flat feet — a condition that can cause pain, instability, and limit mobility. Recognizing the symptoms early, such as swelling along the inside of the ankle, pain in the foot's arch, and an inability to stand on tiptoes, is crucial for timely intervention.
