The Achilles tendon, our body's strongest yet most vulnerable tendon, deserves special attention because it plays a key role in everyday movement. This massive connective tissue structure connects the calf muscles to the heel bone, enabling walking, running and jumping. However, precisely this constant demand makes it particularly prone to inflammation and injury.
Burning foot syndrome typically causes symptoms that worsen at night. Affected people usually describe a burning, pins-and-needles type pain, most commonly located on the sole, around the ankle and sometimes on the lower leg. Although there may be no visible signs on the feet, the agonizing pain can make it impossible to sleep. Sleepless nights and days filled with suffering significantly reduce your quality of life. […]
The foot is a complex structure of bones, ligaments, tendons and muscles, containing 26 bones and 33 joints. It is strong enough to bear the entire body's weight. Because of its complexity, however, it is prone to injuries and pain. This can be caused by a condition affecting the whole body or by a problem local to the foot. Any part of the foot can be affected, from the toes to the Achilles tendon at the back of the heel.
Heel pain most often occurs at the bottom or back of the heel. Although it rarely indicates a serious disease, it can interfere with everyday activities—particularly making physical activity difficult. The foot (from below the ankle to the toes) is made up of 26 bones, the largest of which is the heel bone. The heel's job is to provide a stable support for the body's weight, which is why our heel is subjected to significant impact with every step. This area is more vulnerable, and pain here significantly affects mobility. Heel pain is one of the most common complaints affecting the foot.
The symptoms of restless legs syndrome typically occur in the evening or at night while you are sitting or already lying down. You suddenly feel an overwhelming urge to move your legs. Movement temporarily relieves this unpleasant sensation. The condition, also known as Willis-Ekbom disease, can develop at any age and usually worsens with advancing years. It disrupts the sleep cycle and disturbs rest, which can affect daily activities […]
Kalamász “Raszika” Zsanett recently successfully completed her first marathon (Sri Chinmoy Marathon Lázbérc, 4 hours 51 minutes). Raszika is a yoga instructor and, besides yoga, running is her “second love.” She began preparing roughly two years ago, running 50–70 km per week. So far it sounds straightforward, but about a year ago she developed foot pain while running that did not go away — by spring it had worsened so much that she underwent manual therapy and received softlaser, cryo and shockwave treatments, yet her complaints persisted. That’s when she started using a Runner Pro electrotherapy device regularly.
