Metatarsalgia or Ball of
Foot Pain condition commonly occurs with women, however many men suffer from
pain in the ball of the foot. Sometimes a callous develops in the centre of
the foot and footwear may wear out in a similar fashion.
Ball of Foot Pain causes a burning sensation in the ball of
the foot and can become very painful. Ball of Foot Pain (Metatarsalgia) commonly
occurs from rotation and dropping (plantarflexion) of the metatarsal bones along
with excess pronation and weakening of the soft tissue (ligament & muscle)
structures. ORTHAHEEL aligns the central three (3) metatarsal shafts using a
inbuilt 5mm met raise to correctly position and maintain the Metatarsal bone
position. By balancing the weight distribution over the five (5) metatarsal
bones, this helps remove excess weight & friction which commonly causes
the callous and burning sensation.
