If a nodule is present at the plantar greater trochanter, which is the Achilles tendon or plantar fascia, it may be due to the presence of a localized old injury, bursitis, or osteophytes. The details are as follows:
1. Localized old injuries: these people may have old traumas in the above areas in the past. For example, in the process of strenuous jumping, it may cause traction injury in the above area. In the process of recovery, the local area may grow scar or adhesive structure, which will cause the above symptoms.
2. Bursitis: These people tend to wear tight shoes or engage in excessive exercise activities, such as hiking. This may lead to aseptic inflammation of the bursa around the above mentioned tendon, causing it to become edematous and the above mentioned symptoms may occur.
3. Osteomalacia: These people tend to stand for a long time or have previous old injuries around the heel bone. Thereafter, osteophyte foci will appear in some bony protrusions around the heel bone, such as the heel bone nodule, which will then cause the above symptoms.
If nodules appear on the soles of the feet with pain and other serious symptoms, it is necessary to go to the orthopedic department in time, complete the examination to clarify the cause of the disease, and follow the doctor’s instructions to carry out targeted treatment, so as to avoid delaying the condition.
