I have super high arches, and as a fitness pro for 40 years, it's more of a chronic issue than acute. My podiatrist can't determine if I have a fracture or not, although my other foot is not bipartite like the injured foot appears to be (or fractured) in xray. I'm all over your taping technique! thank you!
Hi your videos are so educational. This one confirms all that my pedorthist and chiropractor/sports rehabilitation have taught me.

This was super helpful! Retired ballerina here... and avid lover of stilettos, as well as naturally very high arches... my sesamoids on both of my feet have stress fractures. It seems every few years I make a wrong movement or step annnnd major pain, and I'm either in a cam walking boot or on crutches for a few months while it calms back down to normal life. Question - are the feet stretches good when it is in injury mode and I'm staying off of it?? Or is it better to save that for the maintaining times? Thank you! :) OH - also, which HOKA's were those? Is that a good brand for walking, hiking, etc with this?
Thank you SO MUCH. I’ve had gradually improving (very slowly) sesamoid pain since February & got an inconclusive MRI in March & have been in a boot pretty much constantly from March til a couple weeks ago. Steroid shot helped immensely but I’ve been in the “You should be fine any day now” stage with my podiatrist for too long & my toe is so stiff now & I wake up with a swollen sesamoid. I needed stretching & footwear ideas & this was so helpful 😅

So helpful. I have an old stress fracture as well as some sesamoiditis so I taped my toe to walk - I ve got a calf roller. I had same problem. I have Chaco men’s podiatrist sandals- stiff zero drop with nice arch. Stopped pain completely 😅
This video was extremely helpful! I've had big toe pain for a few years now. I've been unable to figure out what the problem is. I thought it was everything from turf toe to arthritis. But as soon as I started watching this video, the explanations resonated more than everything I've seen before. Sidenote, I study medicine in Poland, I got a real kick from reading your name... Are you polish?
I've been facing metatarsophalangeal joint pain for over 2 years. I've also visited a few doctors and followed medications but still It couldn't get any better. It pains when I try to Bend the big toe farther and also when I hit something. Please help me with this problem doctor, it's causing me a problem for playing Soccer.
Not sure what has led to my sesamoiditis, I think it's a range of things, I use to be a runner, got injured and really never recovered. Started cycling and I definitely put pressure on the ball of my toe when cycling standing up (when climbing hills). I also have arched feet. And my muscles are seriously short from many years now of neglecting stretching and building flexibility. This is a great video, it reminded me that I do need to resume stretching and re-start using the many stretching tools I have. Great video, thank you.
I stretch my feet every morning, big toe knuckles are a big mess from skiing jamming toes into boot, had irregular bone growth ground off ouch that hurt years ago, is stretching good, it feels good.
Currently 3 months post turf toe injury.. big toe joint jammed hard while it was flexed up in a stretch position. Seems hopeless right now.. but foot doctor says MRI soon because it’s been 3 months and still feels like the day I injured it
What would be your advice for people with Ehlers Danlos Syndrome? I have really considered this condition as a side effect from chronic turf toe and bunions, plantar fasciitis, patellar maltracking etc. I have had many scans to no real conclusion, even went to a podiatrist who seemed knowledgeable in EDS only to tell me to go fix my knees. It is all a catch 22, feet in major pain along with knees, parts of the body too and unable to do half of what it needs to do to support the lower half and vice versa. Can't fix the knees with painful feet and can't fix the feet without treating the knees. Thank you for sharing this video, really put a visual on where these bones are and how easily ish mine could have damaged itself, its very much possible that it has subluxed at some point. Its a sharp electric pain, unable to lift without a deep bruised heavy sensation, even stretching them upwards gives a deep pain in through that base and almost through and through the whole big toe bone, occasionally the inner side can hurt and lately it's the outer edge of both feet have become quite stiff and painful to my knees
This is me right now, in pain from it and the orthopaedic surgeon suggested a surgery to remove it. I think its the case of stress fracture as my toe does function normal and i dont recall hurting it in a major incident. What do you suggest?

Good Afternoon. I had PF surgery 6 months ago to release my PF. I have been struggling with seamoiditis in the same foot for the about 1 year. They came along together. The doctor believes I was extremely tight with Plantar fasciitis and I modified the way I walked. Either way it is not going away. I was wondering when you do your exercises do you do alongside the taping of the big toe? Some of the stretches look like you might pull on the big toe area.
I have crushed my seismoid bones and according to x rays they’re in fragments. So now occasionally I have tendinitis in the same area- does taping still work?
Thank you so much for all this information! My doctor missed reading the MRI results were it says I have a fracture on my tibial sesamoid bone!!! He only read scar tissue

big help. thanks alot i have a bipartite sesamoid which caused sesamoiditis. after years of pain (it comes and goes) sometimes i would even have to use crutches i was diagnosed. this video is helpful
@@schinderlelures5189 th-cam.com/video/HB3JRYbDIoM/w-d-xo.htmlsi=NAxr3VTR4KQpbaug I was suffering for 2 years. Finally came across this and the pain went away immediately. LMK if this works for you
Find a band exercise to strengthen your sesamoid tendon. I am not able to post a link. I was suffering for 4 years and a band exercise to strengthen that tendongot rid of my pain immediately. I couldn’t walk bare footed before. Now It’s no problem
Great information thank you. I had some spurs off my right toe in September. Having lots of pain now in my left foot under my big toe , it could be the sesamoiditis strane .

Hi ...I think I have this problem with both my big toes , the pain is excruciating when I try to raise up on my toes . I have noticed I’m starting to walk on the side of my foot to stop the pain ...how long do I immobilise the joints before I can start stretching the joints again ...I’m worried if I don’t use the joint then I will loose the movement in my big toe altogether
I think I also have a sesamoiditis. But its kind a different. I have an inflammation under my big toe but no pain. Actually there is a pain but kind of a pleasant pain. I push my sesamoid bones against hard objects which results in a big toe crunch which gives me joy. I do not really know how to explain that.
What are some signs, please? After rebounding, my right big toe had weird pain that I never felt before. As I tried to straighten the toe, I felt better. However, the pain continued the next time I jumped. If I had Sesamoiditis, would I be able to bend that big toe???
I have seen another you-tuber show a Y-strip taping wrapped around big toe and pulled underneath taped to arch of foot. Is this just as effective as the taping you demonstrated? Thank you.
My son plays football and his sesamoid was removed because it was broken into 3 pieces and the joint was infested with arthritis. Will this keep him from playing it’s been 3 months of what Doctor said a 4month healing process. Recovery has been slow. What should we expect
So I’m a figure skater and I’m not doing flips or jumps but I turns and often on edges of my blades. My pain in that area doesn’t feel like a bone, it feels like a muscles. It feels like when I walk I feel like there is a stretch burning. So I don’t feel the pain of a broken bone at all. It feels like I pulled something
i have a sesamoiditis on both sides. would you recommend stretching the toes and plantar fascie even when the inflamation pain is still there, like you did at 12:04? the rest sound super helpful and understandable! thank yoj ♥️
We appreciate you watching! th-cam.com/video/69COXNUmDuU/w-d-xo.html Check out some of these insoles, easiest solution would be to offload the sesamoid early on while walking, I usually see near instant relief of pain.

doctor did an mri scan and ct scan they said I have nothing but it still hurts a lot he told me to keep walking and the pain will go away but it never went away
Hi I don’t know if u will write back to me but um I have slammed the front of my foot into a wall yesterday afternoon and I did the RICE. On it but this morning all the swelling was down but it still hurts a lot in my distal region and I have no idea what to do but I have taped it how you said to do it and have put a few tissues it the front of my sock under the toes but I have no idea of what to do next do I go to someone? Or does it seem that it will heal on its own sorry if I wasted and of your time
I stepped on one of my son's Legos and it broke one of mine which in turn pinched a nerve. I had to have the sesamoid bone AND the nerve removed. But on my OTHER foot it just stays a dull ache at all times and i love for it to be pressed and massaged roughly.
@@MichelleKohlerArt Yes, everything is numb from the hallux valux up through my big toe. I thankfully have not gotten a bunion which my podiatrist said might happen BUT I did develop a really bad ingrown toenail. I can't feel it though, but clipping the nail DOES create a type of uncomfortablness. I believe it DID kinda make my OTHER foot worse because since i can't feel it, I tend to shift my body weight to the other foot alot.
@@themysticalmindofmelissa Oh Wow, this is most interesting. I'm sorry you had to go through such an ordeal. My doctor is going to perform a nerve block for me. And then cyroablation therapy. Basically they freeze the deep perenial nerve and it grows back slowly over 6 months. I'm very curious to see what will happen.
hello, i have a question. i am 17 years old i am perfectly healthy but i have severe flatfoot and i cant run well, i can only sprint for like 15 meters or soemthing and then im out of breath, my doctor also told me i dont believe you if you say i can run more than 15 meters. so my question is if i do the hypro cure surgery will i be able to run? edit: i dont have overweight im 1.75m and around 70kg
I have a seasmoid injury and the foot doctor and the regular doctor kept giving us the runaround since day one we wanted a mri but they said no still havnt got one I want one tho, but it’s benne hurting since last year and I’ve been playing on it thinking it would just go away but it got worse and worse and I stoped playing football for 4 months I thought I was good but I Wendy so I have to take this season off and I wanna get better because I miss doing running activities
I always turn my foot and place it on the side of my other foot and flex my Toes up applying pressure? It pops but it feels Better when I do it? I also put a Gel slide on My Toe
I had some very terrible pain driving..I practically couldn't walk after parking the car... How long should I wait to resume my long walking.. skipping or driving
I think I hurt mine walking to get my vaccination as the nearest location was about 15 miles away, and I got the train and walked around 7 miles easily that day there and back, probably more, and I had these metal heel protectors on which I think helped make the whole experience crippling. The metal on concrete paving slabs. I've always walked mostly, since I can't drive. I've also got an uneven garden, and that sets it off. I'm not really sure how I got it. I didn't go back for the 2nd Vaccination, and I haven't regretted my decision! :) Thanks for all of your advice which I aim to take.
Well the podiatrist said I had sesamoiditis. But I'm sure I have that and a few other things happening. But it seems like even though I explained what was all going wrong with the foot region. They seemed a bit focused on just the sesamoid region. Now a bit about me I work for UPS as a delivery driver. I'm not sure when the actual injury came about. But we walk everywhere and of course supervisors have to ask if it's work related. Come on I walk anywhere from 8-10 miles a day at a pace of about 4-5 mph and not always on nice flat ground. Plus I live in a cold weather state so we see our fare share of snow and ice so the ground becomes very unstable between melting and refreezing. But needless to say the job itself isn't exactly easy on the body as a whole. Carrying loads and a little bit of a off sided approach so we can see our walk path plus make adjustments to changing conditions isn't always easy while doing such carry. Well I think one thing that didn't help was the fact that we have been short on brown delivery truck's. So we would do rentals from like U-Haul or Penske. And I was in them for a good 3-4 months straight well pretty much 4 days a week. And getting in and out of them 120-170 times a day probably didn't help. Most of this is mainly to the left foot Some of this is noticeable in right foot as well but not this problematic. asterisk **means it happens in both feet** *Sometimes numbness in the heel when taking off boots(footwear)*. Pain outside lower part ankle * Also get a feeling of a toe shift like a dislocation and when this happens it seems that it can only go away by pulling the toes backwards towards the top of the foot. And not sure why this happens but it can happen whenever I can be walking normally not work pace or even swimming.* *Popping or twinge in toes when walking not always the same toes* *Pain in front ball of foot* * Some heel pain* Pain through the arch to the front side of the heel Pain on top middle of foot but towards the arch side Sometimes pain to the outside edge of the front ball Range of motion seems ok except when I go to point my foot downward get pain to the outside back edge of ankle. And it's considerably less than right foot. I can force it with hands when it's relaxed but not with muscles on it's own At it's worse while walking or making deliveries. Was doing a half step from left to right. And pain would trigger throughout the big toe through the arch to the heel and on top of foot. If I walk with normal body mechanics. If I try to avoid pain I walk with my foot pointed Inwards and also lifting my big toes inside my boot. but this then causes like a limp lifting motion to the foot(drag foot) but not on the ground but also eventually causes pain to backside of knee probably from straining to keep foot positioned for less pain. It can get to this point within a few hours of the vigorous (brisk pace) walking for making delivering es. So I got the dancer pads for both feet. But I'm afraid that things may get worse in other regions of the foot. Like that back edge of the outside ankle. But I did get the felt style 1/4" and also a gel style 1/8". I tried the gels during work today since I'm on light duty not a whole lot of walking. More driving than anything and then waiting around for more driving. But I used them directly on the skin of each foot. Had to roll the socks off and on so they would stay in place. But the ones I got are the Kimihome gel. And the felts are the Mars wellness. Trying to get some good insite on these and where they should be placed but also about the other problems I have going on with the foot . Anything would be helpful even certain stretches. I know the rest I've been getting from light duty is helping but I'm afraid that when I get back to work things may flare up again regardless of how long the day may be. I would help once in awhile and do maybe 30 in town residential stops and within them 30 stops things would start to become agitated. So anything would be helpful thanks and hopefully I hear back from you. They consider us professional athletes. After all just about every muscle gets used and abused on a daily basi

What if your sesamoid is straight up broken- not fractured? I have a sesamoidectomy scheduled in 2.5weeks to remove one of my sesamoid that’s broken. I tried stiff shoes and wearing a boot and it didn’t heal.
Did you have your sesamoid removed? My son’s sesamoid was broken in pieces and had it removed, it’s been 3 month of what doctor says is a 4 month healing process. He plays football
Got a big Lump under my big Toe and in pain. I guess is sesamoidtis as x ray shows that they are dislocated bcoz i got hallux valgus. Will fixing my big tor straight by surgery will serve my sesamoidtis?? Thanks!! Hope i can hv advice from foot doctor
Swelling is coming down, I’m taking magnesium, vitamin c, d, massaging and stretching my tight muscles on my legs. I’m also trying to do squats to activate blood flow in my legs and toes. I’m also using spaces between my big toes to help with bunions that I just recently developed... the most important one, I’m praying for healing
Hello, I have followed your video very thoroughly. Im diagnosed with scapular diskensia as well as slipping 1st rib along with the the myofascial kinetic chain beginning in the toe from turf toe. Now 2 and a half years later I have advanced stage hallix rigidus and its traveling through my body. I am trying to do the foam rolling but ive got so stiff calves and when i try to do that maneuver my scapulas both wing and it is very painful. The towel trick sort of works and the board it on its way but I have questions of where my butt and the rest of my body sits. Everything crinkles and cracks in my body and I feel like a ghost by about 3 steps into my day. Do you have any suggestions? I live in spokane and it seems like ive done everything provider wise and no one has answers. How I got this? I was thrown into a wall by my ex partner and im positive that when it happened I tried to brace myself with my left foot and went over the toe. Nothing bruised and nothing broke but with time i have progressed so badly that i am considering filing for disability as it affects everything
My big toes hurt all the time, I think my shoes are at fault? Last week it was my right, this week its my left, please help! I walk all day on concrete
LLEVO 2 AÑOS CON ESTE ASQUEROSO DOLOR Me he realizado dos radiografías, en una me dijeron que solo era fascitis plantar, en la segunda me dijeron metatarsalgia. Hasta que fui al fisio y me dijo que eran los sesamoideos inflamados. Estoy harta de que las sesiones de fisio sean tan caras. No me las puedo permitir y no hacen descuento ni aunque te dediques profesionalmente a la danza. Me he hartado de buscar videos y hacer lo que los médicos decían y sí... el dolor se reduce HASTA que vuelvo a hacer deporte o andar durante más de una hora. Estoy cansada de que nada me funcione y de que el dolor no se vaya nunca y no me dan mas solución nada más que hielito y fisio

I have a bunion on both feet, and harsh pain on my sesamoid bones every day just from walking (about 5 years now). My doctor is recommending surgery, but that is my last resort. Seeking some guidance/ advice. Has anyone had the surgery? What we’re your results? None of the stretching, orthotics, tape, conservative measures have worked for me.
Interestingly, this video states that wearing rocker bottom shoes is counterproductive and you should NOT wear those shoes th-cam.com/video/V32SdKevbsI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=-QgE3JOW2YKhlTFE

What would be your advice for people with Ehlers Danlos Syndrome?

Thank you for sharing this video, really put a visual on where these bones are and how easily ish mine could have damaged itself, its very much possible that it has subluxed at some point. Its a sharp electric pain, unable to lift without a deep bruised heavy sensation, even stretching them upwards gives a deep pain in through that base and almost through and through the whole big toe bone, occasionally the inner side can hurt and lately it's the outer edge of both feet have become quite stiff and painful to my knees
Thank you for such an informative video.

Good Afternoon. I had PF surgery 6 months ago to release my PF. I have been struggling with seamoiditis in the same foot for the about 1 year. They came along together. The doctor believes I was extremely tight with Plantar fasciitis and I modified the way I walked. Either way it is not going away. I was wondering when you do your exercises do you do alongside the taping of the big toe? Some of the stretches look like you might pull on the big toe area.
I have crushed my seismoid bones and according to x rays they’re in fragments. So now occasionally I have tendinitis in the same area- does taping still work?
Thank you so much for all this information! My doctor missed reading the MRI results were it says I have a fracture on my tibial sesamoid bone!!! He only read scar tissue
Wow, thank you so much for your amazing feedback and help to grow our channel. Great fans like you are really what keeps us working hard and motivated to make better videos. We hope your foot feels better!

I have a crack in inner sesomoid bone, how long will it take to heal and can I got for running, or is it better to go for cycling.
big help. thanks alot
i have a bipartite sesamoid which caused sesamoiditis. after years of pain (it comes and goes) sometimes i would even have to use crutches i was diagnosed. this video is helpful
I have bipartite as well. Do you have relief now or have to deal with the pain when doing activities ?
@jonathandeuire6962 did you ever get relief, I have bi partite as well for 6 months

I was suffering for 2 years. Finally came across this and the pain went away immediately. LMK if this works for you
Find a band exercise to strengthen your sesamoid tendon. I am not able to post a link.
I was suffering for 4 years and a band exercise to strengthen that tendongot rid of my pain immediately. I couldn’t walk bare footed before. Now It’s no problem
@@jonathandeuire6962 next comment I posted the fix
Does this also work if one of the sesamoid bones is dead which is causing the inflammation and pain?
Great information thank you. I had some spurs off my right toe in September. Having lots of pain now in my left foot under my big toe , it could be the sesamoiditis strane .
Wow, we appreciate the kind words and your watching Barry, we wish you the best of relief!

Hi ...I think I have this problem with both my big toes , the pain is excruciating when I try to raise up on my toes . I have noticed I’m starting to walk on the side of my foot to stop the pain ...how long do I immobilise the joints before I can start stretching the joints again ...I’m worried if I don’t use the joint then I will loose the movement in my big toe altogether
I think I also have a sesamoiditis. But its kind a different. I have an inflammation under my big toe but no pain. Actually there is a pain but kind of a pleasant pain. I push my sesamoid bones against hard objects which results in a big toe crunch which gives me joy. I do not really know how to explain that.
Same here for me
Excellent video- informative and very helpful!
Thanks!
how can you tell if its sesamoiditis, turf toe, or bunions?
What are some signs, please? After rebounding, my right big toe had weird pain that I never felt before. As I tried to straighten the toe, I felt better. However, the pain continued the next time I jumped. If I had Sesamoiditis, would I be able to bend that big toe???
i can bend my toe fully up and down and have sesamoiditis i also play basketball in college
I have seen another you-tuber show a Y-strip taping wrapped around big toe and pulled underneath taped to arch of foot. Is this just as effective as the taping you demonstrated? Thank you.
That could be a good method as well for sure!
My son plays football and his sesamoid was removed because it was broken into 3 pieces and the joint was infested with arthritis. Will this keep him from playing it’s been 3 months of what Doctor said a 4month healing process. Recovery has been slow. What should we expect
I REALLY need to make an appointment with you!!!!
So I’m a figure skater and I’m not doing flips or jumps but I turns and often on edges of my blades. My pain in that area doesn’t feel like a bone, it feels like a muscles. It feels like when I walk I feel like there is a stretch burning. So I don’t feel the pain of a broken bone at all. It feels like I pulled something
i have a sesamoiditis on both sides. would you recommend stretching the toes and plantar fascie even when the inflamation pain is still there, like you did at 12:04? the rest sound super helpful and understandable! thank yoj ♥️
is this info from this video still up to date, cause I remebr you had videos on ankle sprains which you had to update due to new information
Basically yes. Although any information in the world can change, more of a disclaimer and clarification on things people seemed to get confused about.
Should I massage the bottom of the foot with the injury considering directly under the sesamoid is a bit swollen
Hi, do these work for sesamoid bone hairline fractures as well?
My pain of sesamoid last almost a two years, was somebody's sesamoid cured after that long time?
Strained sesamoid bones while cycling. I have very low vitamin D(10) which is the main cause of bones weakening. What your suggestion please?
We appreciate you watching!
th-cam.com/video/69COXNUmDuU/w-d-xo.html Check out some of these insoles, easiest solution would be to offload the sesamoid early on while walking, I usually see near instant relief of pain.
If possible, we would appreciate a quick rating (hopefully good), as it makes a HUGE difference!

doctor did an mri scan and ct scan they said I have nothing but it still hurts a lot he told me to keep walking and the pain will go away but it never went away
This applied to tibial sesamoid fracture?
I was wondering if you reccomend dancer pads? If so, which ones would you recommend gel or felt?
Thank you so much for the video!
Cycling, leg extension and bridges
brilliant years of pain gone in minutes! (ridiculous really) but thank you!
What kind of rockwr bottom shoes..that are budget friendly too..do u suggest for women.
Great great video thank you
Hi I don’t know if u will write back to me but um I have slammed the front of my foot into a wall yesterday afternoon and I did the RICE. On it but this morning all the swelling was down but it still hurts a lot in my distal region and I have no idea what to do but I have taped it how you said to do it and have put a few tissues it the front of my sock under the toes but I have no idea of what to do next do I go to someone? Or does it seem that it will heal on its own sorry if I wasted and of your time
I stepped on one of my son's Legos and it broke one of mine which in turn pinched a nerve. I had to have the sesamoid bone AND the nerve removed. But on my OTHER foot it just stays a dull ache at all times and i love for it to be pressed and massaged roughly.
Wow! They removed the bone and the nerve! How does that effect you now? Does removing the Nerve effect anything? Thank you
@@MichelleKohlerArt Yes, everything is numb from the hallux valux up through my big toe. I thankfully have not gotten a bunion which my podiatrist said might happen BUT I did develop a really bad ingrown toenail. I can't feel it though, but clipping the nail DOES create a type of uncomfortablness. I believe it DID kinda make my OTHER foot worse because since i can't feel it, I tend to shift my body weight to the other foot alot.
@@themysticalmindofmelissa Oh Wow, this is most interesting. I'm sorry you had to go through such an ordeal. My doctor is going to perform a nerve block for me. And then cyroablation therapy. Basically they freeze the deep perenial nerve and it grows back slowly over 6 months. I'm very curious to see what will happen.
Awesome video!!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
hello, i have a question. i am 17 years old i am perfectly healthy but i have severe flatfoot and i cant run well, i can only sprint for like 15 meters or soemthing and then im out of breath, my doctor also told me i dont believe you if you say i can run more than 15 meters. so my question is if i do the hypro cure surgery will i be able to run? edit: i dont have overweight im 1.75m and around 70kg
my left great toe is always in a upward pointing position and its so painful had scans but doctors cant tell me why
My MRI says “small fluid collection at the plantar to the sesamoids”, is that something you’d inject? I have pain near the sesamoids.
Hi, u ever found out how to fix ur issue?
I have a seasmoid injury and the foot doctor and the regular doctor kept giving us the runaround since day one we wanted a mri but they said no still havnt got one I want one tho, but it’s benne hurting since last year and I’ve been playing on it thinking it would just go away but it got worse and worse and I stoped playing football for 4 months I thought I was good but I Wendy so I have to take this season off and I wanna get better because I miss doing running activities
Good information
Thank you so much!!!
I always turn my foot and place it on the side of my other foot and flex my Toes up applying pressure? It pops but it feels Better when I do it? I also put a Gel slide on My Toe
Thank u doc from the uk 🇬🇧
I had some very terrible pain driving..I practically couldn't walk after parking the car... How long should I wait to resume my long walking.. skipping or driving
How about a heating pad instead of ice for ball of foot pain?
Thanks from Slovenia:)
I think I hurt mine walking to get my vaccination as the nearest location was about 15 miles away, and I got the train and walked around 7 miles easily that day there and back, probably more, and I had these metal heel protectors on which I think helped make the whole experience crippling. The metal on concrete paving slabs. I've always walked mostly, since I can't drive. I've also got an uneven garden, and that sets it off. I'm not really sure how I got it. I didn't go back for the 2nd Vaccination, and I haven't regretted my decision! :) Thanks for all of your advice which I aim to take.
I’ve been dealing with sesmoid flareups since 2015. So far nothing has helped. When the pain comes on, I’m basically useless for a week.
only question under this video but no answer ...
I have had a sit down for years but started having foot pain all of a sudden 😫
Pain big toe happend to me coz may be training much middle split and maintain position for long....
Well the podiatrist said I had sesamoiditis. But I'm sure I have that and a few other things happening. But it seems like even though I explained what was all going wrong with the foot region. They seemed a bit focused on just the sesamoid region. Now a bit about me I work for UPS as a delivery driver. I'm not sure when the actual injury came about. But we walk everywhere and of course supervisors have to ask if it's work related. Come on I walk anywhere from 8-10 miles a day at a pace of about 4-5 mph and not always on nice flat ground. Plus I live in a cold weather state so we see our fare share of snow and ice so the ground becomes very unstable between melting and refreezing. But needless to say the job itself isn't exactly easy on the body as a whole. Carrying loads and a little bit of a off sided approach so we can see our walk path plus make adjustments to changing conditions isn't always easy while doing such carry. Well I think one thing that didn't help was the fact that we have been short on brown delivery truck's. So we would do rentals from like U-Haul or Penske. And I was in them for a good 3-4 months straight well pretty much 4 days a week. And getting in and out of them 120-170 times a day probably didn't help.
Most of this is mainly to the left foot Some of this is noticeable in right foot as well but not this problematic.
asterisk **means it happens in both feet**
*Sometimes numbness in the heel when taking off boots(footwear)*.
Pain outside lower part ankle
* Also get a feeling of a toe shift like a dislocation and when this happens it seems that it can only go away by pulling the toes backwards towards the top of the foot. And not sure why this happens but it can happen whenever I can be walking normally not work pace or even swimming.*
*Popping or twinge in toes when walking not always the same toes*
*Pain in front ball of foot*
* Some heel pain*
Pain through the arch to the front side of the heel
Pain on top middle of foot but towards the arch side
Sometimes pain to the outside edge of the front ball
Range of motion seems ok except when I go to point my foot downward get pain to the outside back edge of ankle. And it's considerably less than right foot. I can force it with hands when it's relaxed but not with muscles on it's own
At it's worse while walking or making deliveries. Was doing a half step from left to right. And pain would trigger throughout the big toe through the arch to the heel and on top of foot. If I walk with normal body mechanics. If I try to avoid pain I walk with my foot pointed Inwards and also lifting my big toes inside my boot. but this then causes like a limp lifting motion to the foot(drag foot) but not on the ground but also eventually causes pain to backside of knee probably from straining to keep foot positioned for less pain. It can get to this point within a few hours of the vigorous (brisk pace) walking for making delivering
es. So I got the dancer pads for both feet. But I'm afraid that things may get worse in other regions of the foot. Like that back edge of the outside ankle. But I did get the felt style 1/4" and also a gel style 1/8". I tried the gels during work today since I'm on light duty not a whole lot of walking. More driving than anything and then waiting around for more driving. But I used them directly on the skin of each foot. Had to roll the socks off and on so they would stay in place. But the ones I got are the Kimihome gel. And the felts are the Mars wellness. Trying to get some good insite on these and where they should be placed but also about the other problems I have going on with the foot . Anything would be helpful even certain stretches. I know the rest I've been getting from light duty is helping but I'm afraid that when I get back to work things may flare up again regardless of how long the day may be. I would help once in awhile and do maybe 30 in town residential stops and within them 30 stops things would start to become agitated. So anything would be helpful thanks and hopefully I hear back from you. They consider us professional athletes. After all just about every muscle gets used and abused on a daily basi

What tape do you recommend for taping ? It looks like duck tape but I wasn’t 100% sure on that .
KT tape, Leukotape can work well as athletic tape, but for demo purposes this was duct tape!

What if your sesamoid is straight up broken- not fractured? I have a sesamoidectomy scheduled in 2.5weeks to remove one of my sesamoid that’s broken. I tried stiff shoes and wearing a boot and it didn’t heal.
Did you have your sesamoid removed? My son’s sesamoid was broken in pieces and had it removed, it’s been 3 month of what doctor says is a 4 month healing process. He plays football
Got a big
Lump under my big
Toe and in pain. I guess is sesamoidtis as x ray shows that they are dislocated bcoz i got hallux valgus. Will fixing my big tor straight by surgery will serve my sesamoidtis?? Thanks!! Hope i can hv advice from foot doctor
I think same thing happened to me, I been suffering from this since November. My sesamoids also moved and still can’t bring swelling down.
Swelling is coming down, I’m taking magnesium, vitamin c, d, massaging and stretching my tight muscles on my legs. I’m also trying to do squats to activate blood flow in my legs and toes. I’m also using spaces between my big toes to help with bunions that I just recently developed... the most important one, I’m praying for healing
Hello,
I have followed your video very thoroughly. Im diagnosed with scapular diskensia as well as slipping 1st rib along with the the myofascial kinetic chain beginning in the toe from turf toe. Now 2 and a half years later I have advanced stage hallix rigidus and its traveling through my body. I am trying to do the foam rolling but ive got so stiff calves and when i try to do that maneuver my scapulas both wing and it is very painful. The towel trick sort of works and the board it on its way but I have questions of where my butt and the rest of my body sits. Everything crinkles and cracks in my body and I feel like a ghost by about 3 steps into my day. Do you have any suggestions? I live in spokane and it seems like ive done everything provider wise and no one has answers.
How I got this?
I was thrown into a wall by my ex partner and im positive that when it happened I tried to brace myself with my left foot and went over the toe. Nothing bruised and nothing broke but with time i have progressed so badly that i am considering filing for disability as it affects everything
I hope everything in your life gets better. God be with you
i have been suffering for 2 years now
Long walking skipping rope for long....I had severe pain on the big toe for three weeks now
Haha my fellow kenyan glad to see you here. How did you resolve your issue?any local experts you would recommend
My big toes hurt all the time, I think my shoes are at fault? Last week it was my right, this week its my left, please help! I walk all day on concrete
And right now its my left foot and its that big toe joint, and it hurts!
Tennis split step
LLEVO 2 AÑOS CON ESTE ASQUEROSO DOLOR
Me he realizado dos radiografías, en una me dijeron que solo era fascitis plantar, en la segunda me dijeron metatarsalgia.
Hasta que fui al fisio y me dijo que eran los sesamoideos inflamados. Estoy harta de que las sesiones de fisio sean tan caras. No me las puedo permitir y no hacen descuento ni aunque te dediques profesionalmente a la danza. Me he hartado de buscar videos y hacer lo que los médicos decían y sí... el dolor se reduce HASTA que vuelvo a hacer deporte o andar durante más de una hora.
Estoy cansada de que nada me funcione y de que el dolor no se vaya nunca y no me dan mas solución nada más que hielito y fisio

I have a bunion on both feet, and harsh pain on my sesamoid bones every day just from walking (about 5 years now).
My doctor is recommending surgery, but that is my last resort. Seeking some guidance/ advice. Has anyone had the surgery? What we’re your results?
None of the stretching, orthotics, tape, conservative measures have worked for me.
Why do some Doc rush to say it's gout???
Man I thought it was a gout attack but it's not. Found out its this.
12 years in and i have pain the day after playing basketball.
With semiotics, will it cause you not to be able to bend your big toe, my big toe only bends about halfway and hurts like a mf
