Bunions

Hallux Valgus (Bunions): a (sometimes painful) bump at the medial base of the great toe. Excessive pronation and hypermobility of first metatarsal ray causes toe-off to come off the medial (inside) side instead of the plantar surface of the great toe.

Iliotibial Pain

This outside or lateral knee pain is caused by the ITB pulling up on it's insertion on the outside of the knee. Underneath the ITB near it's insertion at the knee is a bursa. When that ITB is pulled tight it put too much pressure on the bursa and that bursa reacted by becoming inflamed and swollen, giving you pain.

Foot Skin Conditions

Tinea pedis is the medical term for athlete's foot, one of the most well-known fungal foot conditions. Tinea pedis got its nickname because of its tendency to infect athletes, who often wear hot, sweaty athletic shoes that provide a good breeding ground for the fungus that causes the condition. In reality, athlete's foot can affect anyone, young or old, regardless of shoe style.
