Hi,

I have a problem with a patient who was initially getting pain on the medial aspect of both ankles and subtalar join region. It extended basically along where the tibialis posterior muscle runs and inserts into the navicular. After a bimechanical assessment I prescribed a quick fix in the form of 3/4 vasyli orthoses to help prevent abnormal pronation and to support the midtarsal joint. I explained to the patient that eventually she may need more custom made orthoses. The patient is a 35 yr old recreational runner who is now doing up to 35 km per week.
This helped the patient right away. She also found the vasyli orthoses quite comfortable.
Now, however, there is a problem with the B/2/3/4 apices getting pressure lesions fairly close to the nail area of these toes. I am thinking the foot may have moved forward slightly due to less room in the shoe.
My problem is how to fix this for the patient? I am also aware that she is running more kms now.
thanks
