Ans: Hello,
I'm sorry to hear about your wife's pain. The location you described, where the pain is at the point where the finger starts from the foot, could indeed be caused by various conditions such as corns or plantar fasciitis, as you mentioned.Corns are small areas of thickened skin that develop as a result of pressure or friction. They can cause pain and discomfort, especially when walking or wearing tight shoes. Plantar fasciitis, on the other hand, is inflammation of the thick band of tissue (plantar fascia) that runs across the bottom of the foot. It commonly causes stabbing pain near the heel or along the arch of the foot, but it can sometimes affect other areas of the foot as well.To determine the exact cause of your wife's pain and the best course of treatment, it would be advisable for her to visit a physiotherapist or a healthcare professional specializing in foot conditions. They can conduct a thorough examination, possibly including imaging tests if necessary, to make an accurate diagnosis and recommend appropriate treatment options. In the meantime, she can try some self-care measures to alleviate the pain, such as resting the foot, applying ice packs, wearing comfortable and supportive footwear, using over-the-counter pain relievers, and possibly using orthotic inserts or pads to reduce pressure on the affected area.I hope your wife finds relief soon.
