There are many patients with metatarsal fasciitis and exercise is one of the very important treatment tools. The following is a brief description of the methods of stretching exercises for metatarsophalangeal tendonitis. These methods are used in conjunction with other treatments to achieve a comprehensive treatment of metatarsal fasciitis. Peng Jianguang, Department of Orthopedics, Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University, lays a towel flat on the floor, steps flat on one end of the towel, and pulls the towel toward the heel by curling the towel with the toes. Stand against the wall and straighten or flex the knee joint to pull the muscles of the calf. Or stand on a step and pull the calf muscles. Use a ball (a tennis ball, etc.) to step on the bottom of your foot and massage the plantar fascia. Or use your hands to massage the plantar fascia directly. The role of the plantar tendon membrane is complex. In simple terms, it is similar to a conveyor belt that absorbs vibrations, transmits forces and maintains the stability of the arch during the movement of the foot. Strenuous exercise (such as marching) causes chronic micro-injuries and inflammatory episodes. I will not go into this aspect of medication. Early rest is important, and it is recommended to choose a pair of suitable shoes with professional arch support insoles to reduce the pressure on the metatarsal tendon membrane. (To be continued) Perhaps the previous illustration is not easy to understand, the following will bring you some visual demonstration. Note that the exercise is on the back of the leg. Figure 1 the gastrocnemius muscle is pulled when the knee is straight, and Figure 2 the flounder muscle is pulled when the knee is flexed. Hold for 30 seconds at a time and start with 10 reps per set, then increase to 30 reps per set, doing 3 sets at a time. Do this 3 times a day. Figure 3 shows the effect of massaging the metatarsal fascia while achieving an ice pack. Freeze a bottle of water and roll it with your foot. 10 minutes each time, 3 times a day. Be careful to avoid frostbite. Figure 4 is a massage of the metatarsal fascia. Sit cross-legged and use one hand to pull the toes upward while the other hand massages the fascia in front of the heel. 10 minutes each time, 3 times a day. Figure 5 is a heel lift, hold for 10 seconds each time, start with 10 strokes per set, then increase to 30 strokes per set, do 3 sets each time. 3 times a day. Figure 6 is to grasp something with your toes, such as a glass ball or something. Do 10 strokes per set, 3 sets each time, 3 times a day. Figure 7 is to do pulling exercises with a towel. Hold for 30 seconds at a time and start with 10 strokes per set, then increase to 30 strokes per set and do 3 sets each time. 3 times a day. One point to remind you that the exercise time and number of times described here is only a recommended practice, of course, to vary from person to person, according to their capabilities, and gradually strengthen.
