Symptoms of tendinitis of the foot

summary

Where there are tendons, inflammation will occur. Many people's feet need to walk for a long time. It is easy to cause foot tendinitis, leading to joint pain. Serious cases will lead to joint deformity, which will have a greater impact on the patient's body. Different types of tendinitis have different symptoms. Generally, it will lead to long-term foot pain and swelling, There is no way to normal activity, will lead to limb dysfunction. I would like to share with you my views on the symptoms of tendinitis of the foot.

Symptoms of tendinitis of the foot

1. Flexor tendon tenosynovitis: it mostly occurs on the palm of the thumb and middle finger. When the patient gets up in the morning, the symptoms are obvious. The affected finger shows flexion and extension dysfunction, and sometimes the pain radiates to the wrist. There is tenderness at the flexion of the finger joint, and the thickened tendon sheath and pea sized nodules can be touched. When bending the affected finger, it suddenly stays in the semi bending position, and the finger can neither be straightened nor bent, just like being suddenly "stuck". After pulling with the help of the other hand, the finger can move again, producing the action and sound like pulling a bolt.

2. Plantar flexor toe tenosynovitis: plantar flexor toe tenosynovitis often occurs in middle-aged women. It is caused by standing and walking for a long time in the state of wearing high-heeled shoes. The gravity of the body moves forward, and the gravity of the whole body is concentrated in the front of the sole. Over time, the friction between tendon sheath and tendon, inflammatory exudation, etc. induce tendon sheath stenosis or inflammation.

3. Stenotic tenosynovitis of radial styloid process: it often appears at the bony process on the thumb side of the wrist. It is characterized by obvious pain around the bony process, hindrance of thumb movement and local tenderness. During self-examination, hold the thumb tightly in the other four fingers and bend the wrist toward the inner side of the wrist, then severe pain will appear at the styloid process of radius. 4. Acute serous tenosynovitis: this type of tenosynovitis is also called rheumatic tenosynovitis. It is a part of systemic rheumatism and a reaction of acute rheumatic fever. Patients with high fever, joint pain, swelling, effusion, of which the most important lesion is rheumatic myocarditis. After fever, serous exudation and absorption of tendon sheath, tenosynovitis self-healing.

matters needing attention

As the above tendon sheath plays a trochlear role, it has the greatest friction and is most likely to be damaged. The thickening of tendon sheath affects the normal activity of tendon. Stenosing tenosynovitis may also be the result of some quiescent or subclinical collagen diseases.
