Glacier Chiropractic can help you identify if common foot problems might be the cause of your back pain and vice versa. When your back starts to hurt, you may not immediately suspect that a problem with your feet is causing the pain or that a back problem is contributing to your foot pain. We invite you in for an evaluation and adjustment to see what quality chiropractic care can do for you.
Foot Problems That Cause Back Pain
Believe it or not, some back issues may be related to a problem happening in your feet. When you have pain or discomfort in your feet or a congenital condition, it can affect the way you stand and walk, which also affects how your back feels. Changes in the natural gait can lead to back pain and cause the spine to be out of alignment.
There are a surprising number of conditions that can cause or contribute to back pain, especially lower back pain.
- Fallen Arches
- Drop Foot
- Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome
- Achilles Tendonitis
- Morton’s Neuroma
- Misaligned Foot Bones
Back Problems That Cause Foot Pain
Not only can your feet cause back pain, but the reverse is also true. Many back conditions can cause pain to radiate into the feet. When the spine is out of alignment, it can affect the way you walk and how your body moves overall. Unnatural and repetitive motions can create issues within your body that generate chronic pain.
- Herniated Lumbar Disc
- Lumbar Spinal Stenosis
- Degenerative Disc Disease
- Spondylolisthesis
- Sciatica
- Spinal Misalignment
Holistic, Drug-Free Solutions
Many people prefer to deal with foot pain and back pain through holistic methods like a chiropractic adjustment. Treatment will depend on your medical history and condition, and adjustments may not be appropriate for all situations.
A visit to our clinic is an excellent option for anyone who wants the benefits of alternative treatments or a drug-free option for pain management.
