Scoliosis
Scoliosis usually means you have curvature of the spine that goes in a lateral direction. The curvature of the spine is usually in the thoracic and lumbar spine, which can lead to chronic back pain. If you have an obvious deformity of the spine, a conservative podiatric scoliosis treatment starts with addressing abnormal gait.
Knee Pain
The knee joint takes a great deal of your weight when you are walking so it is especially prone to becoming painful or being injured. You can suffer from acute knee pain because of a car accident, a fall, or a sports injury. You can also suffer from chronic knee pain from osteoarthritis of the knee or from an old trauma that didn’t heal well. Each type of pain is treated a little bit differently and you can expect different outcomes when trying to deal with the pain.
Bursitis
Bursitis causes pain and tenderness at the site of inflammation with fluid accumulation due to the repetitive motions that place stress on joints as in the case of knee bursitis. Its symptoms can easily be mistaken for other conditions such as arthritis, back pain or glute muscle injuries in the cases of hip bursitis. However, the often painful issue can occur in many different parts of the body including the shoulder, elbow, hip, knee or heel.
