    Wow, thank you.
    I have been dealing with this issue for the past 6 years. I can’t truely explain how debilitating this issue is and how hard it is to deal with it. Both on a mental and physical level.
    Thanks again, finally I’m on the right track.

      I know those feelings. I suffered from it for over 10 years. I actually stopped all running and sport because of it. Now after 5 years it’s all back and my frustration is peaking. I’ll do anything to be rid of this issue

      @@jasoncoates5361 Hey man. Just an update on my side. It has gotten better! I have noticed a few things, flat, thin shoes are way better because it gives the ankle more mobility. Even shoes like vans, which would tpyically be know as bad walking shoes work great for me. The thicker the sole the more difficult I find. Espically when walking up hills, thicker soled shoes at the heel very much affect the ankles mobility.
      Another thing, I'm about 6'3 and weighed circa 95kg so not overweight or anything, but I delibertly have been on a keto / half assd carnivore diet inorder to lose more weight. I have dropped down to now 85kg and it makes a big difference on the muscles excertion. This has helped dramatically and for the rest of my life I will be staying on this side of the weight spectrum.
      I know I wont be able to play sport / run probably ever again without pain but at least walking is ok and good now and I don't need to pull a brave face when doing typical activites.
      I have also played around and varied the angle I walk at when my feet contact the ground. The more parralel the feet when walking the more stress it will but on the outer lower leg muscles which is my issue. When I allow my feet to angle out a little more, I find my calf muscles start working more and the load is therefore spread more evenly throughout my lower leg muscles.
      Below is an example of thin shoes I walk with and am talking about above. I would guess all sport professionals would say these are horrible to walk in but the thin sole really works well for me. Also vans would be similar.
      - Adidas Samba OG's
      This is an example of the shoe I will wear on a walk. I will chose these over, asics or anything else what would be reccomended. The flat, thin soles help massively.
      Asics or Nikes or whatever running shoes typically are angle from the heel to the toe. Being the heel is the thickest and the toe box is the thinner part of the sole. The angle of these creates issues for me. The flatness of the sole of the sneakers listed above work way more like the foot would normally.
      If you have any questions feel free, I understand how cruel/ random and unrelatable this issue is for many.

    That was very insightful, thank you. After years of just giving up bc physiotherapists and sportdocs couldn’t help iam retesting. And changing running style but also stretching (bc those lower leg muscles are very tight) is what I naturally found to help me. For me: running not too slow, placing the foot underneath me and having longer strides to the backside seems to work, just as you laid out in the video. Just trying to not overstress the anterior compartment.

    Thank you for this vid. I was diagnosed Compartment Syndrome back in the 90's, it killed me to stop Running, Facia surgery was suggested but I was not comfortable with that idea so Elliptical machine was the best answer. Over the years if I stopped running for long periods of time, I would be able to run again for short a short period, a few months maybe, I'm not a crazy runner so I can live with it but recently I started running on a treadmill after having heart attack and after about 6 months I feel it starting again, so I have stopped and back on to elliptical machine but after your vid I'm going to research and follow some of your vids about changing the way I run. Thank you so much Karl Squire.

    Hello I’m not sure if you will see this message but I just wanted to say this is by far one of the best chronic compartment syndrome videos on TH-cam from my experience of searching and I wanted to say thank you.
    I have had compartment syndrome for 3 years now until i got the operation on March of this year for both legs and all four compartments of each leg. With all pressure tests done and a reading of 30+ in all 8 compartments of my calf and other things like MRI scans to rule out other injures I finally decided that having the operation was the last resort as i did go through the 3 years trying to strengthen other areas of my body with a physio to reduce the stress on my calves but this did not work.
    I am now in rehab and I have been struggling with wondering my if my symptoms have been relieved or not as you probably know compartment syndrome feels kind of like a more intense and 10x worse fatigue which is annoying as I don’t know whether it is normal fatigue everybody gets or if it is because the operation hasn’t worked. I hope that makes sense. It is nice to have this video as the worst case scenario Is that I’ll have to change my running style. Thank you👍🏼

    I've been dealing with this condition for 10 year and was diagnosed in the military after noticing bumps appearing on my legs later finding out that the fascia had torn from running with this condition for many months. Ended up declining the surgery because the surgeon stated that there was basically a 25% of it actually helping and there was a major nerve that controlled the top of the foot in the way that could be damaged while cutting the fascia. I always thought that I would never be able to run more than 1/4 of a mile again but I do want to give this running style a try. Very informative thank you!

I’m currently waiting for some nerve tests in my leg and back before the hospital will make a decision about what they can do for me. I’ve also been referred to a vascular specialist but the appointment is not for another 4 months.

    I suffered with this condition to the extent that I thought my calves were going to literally explode. The outside of my calves were rock hard and I had terrible pins and needles with loss of muscle strength. I had also been battling with type 2 diabetes and for a while I thought this was a blood circulatory condition. I couldn't run for more than 1km before needing to stop. I almost gave up and became dispondent. However, I was determined to be able to run our local parkrun so I started doing simple calf stretches. Every day. Consistently stretching the calves - nothing too hectic and I would stretch the calves in the shower every morning. I found that I was soon able to run 2km and within 2 months the pain disappeared totally and I was able to run a sub 30 min 5km. I still stretch the calves but my chronic pain is a thing of the past. For me, it was just a light stretch but doing it every single day for 2 months.

      It might do if it is caused by the way you run e.g. if overworking the Tibialis Anterior muscle is your actual cause, then if you rest it and run in a way that don't work it as hard then it might take a while before it starts again. But it might also mean that it is something else.

  • @TideV2
    @TideV2 ปีที่แล้ว

    To fix this just practice jogging with as small of a stride as possible. This will force you to land on the forefoot at worst midfoot. This will strengthen your calves and condition you to land on the proper part of your foot. Before you know it youll be running miles with no thought of this pain. From time to time it may flair up but for the most part shorter strides and landing on forefoot not only isnt it better running form but will largely eliminate this issue. You can also include some tibialis exercises which will help strength the muscle so it doesnt get tired so quickly. Good luck.

      That's tricky because it's not really possible to thinks so much about how you run in soccer (because of all the maneuvers) as it is when just jogging. Essentially you want to find ways to use your Tib Ant less (so not pull your front foot up so high when you run) - that can sometimes help but it really depends on what is causing your case.

I'm sorry you're dealing with that man. I used to be a marathon runner. I understand and it sucks, a lot.

      @@armagansabetian5269 That's great to hear that your issues have resolved! There definitely are people who it seems to work for and glad that you are one of them. Wish that I could say the same. For me, they pushed surgery right away, which I wish I had done more research and held off. The biggest thing is at the time they were still thinking of CS as a blood vessel issue. They now believe through the research that it might have more to do with the nerves which may be why it works for some people and not others. But who knows, there's still so much they don't understand about it.

      Your injury is unfortunately not the same as when someone gets compartment syndrome from sport. So this is not really something that we can help you with. Perhaps it is time to have a review with your doctor and find out if there are any solutions to this.

    So I've been home not working due to covid 19. I am 5'11' 280lbs. and considered obese. I used to move pool tables for a living, going up and down stairways carrying slates and tools numerous times a day on a daily basis for the past 8 years. I recently over the last couple years was diagnosed with sleep apnea -which is being treated with a c-pap machine and mask. I was still feeling tired so my doctor ran a test to check my testosterone levels which came back low at 213.
    Jump ahead to present day. I started my testosterone treatment a couple months ago and my doctor has been telling me for years to walk every day for at least 15 minutes a day. So with me being home and not working since April I was even more out of shape and decided to start walking every day. My road has some steep hills and when I first started walking it was almost like a full blown work out for me. It usually takes me around 23 minutes to walk to my end of the road and back. I noticed right from the get go that my lower shin areas on the outer sides would ache and get like a heavy feeling to them. I figured I was just out of shape.
    However, it's been at least a month now that I go for daily walks and the symptoms are still there. Could this be compartment syndrome even though all I'm doing is walking every day? I'm starting to get concerned because if I can't even start to walk faster how will I ever lose weight and get back into shape. This really sucks and I've never had anything quite like this before. It's not bad enough to debilitate me, but I usually have to slow my pace down before it starts to subside. After I'm done walking it subsides completely after a few minutes. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

    • @SportsInjuryPhysio
      @SportsInjuryPhysio  ปีที่แล้ว

      This is a tricky one - from the research the best solution seems to be to teach yourself to run with less dorsiflexion at heel strike which will then prevent you overusing the Tib Ant so much - so try to reduce overstride by landing with foot more directly under you and also think about pulling heel up to bottom as you run rather than striding far out in front of you. It usually works best to practice this in short run/walk intervals as it is not possible to hold the new form for extended periods.

    I get pressure in the back of my lower calf and my feet go numb. I run trails and its usually on the first climb or in the first half hour. Then it lasts about an hour. I will stop for a water break or something and it never comes back. I have had overuse issues with my achilles and shin splints. I really believe my issues is all the damaged tissue in that area form over use. Dehydration, not stretching and doing too much affects it. The pressure is uncomfortable in the beginning but nothing that stops me. Then the numb feet is annoying. Its my limiting factor in the beginning of races. I am gonna train more in zone 2 and be strict about that. I think most of my training being in zone 3/4 is the issue. Its just too much like a race pace for training. I'll update in a couple months

      Acute compartment syndrome is serious and needs immediate treatment but exercise-induced compartment syndrome is something totally different and not as serious. Which one are you talking about? This video is about exercise-induced compartment sindrome, meaning it only happens when you exercise and the pressure relieves immediately when you stop exercising. Acute compartment syndrome usually happens after trauma (e.g. hit to the leg) that causes acute bleeding and pressure inside the muscle sheath and that can cause the mucles and nerves to die off.
