Haglund disease called different problems in the heel, that even doctors are confused.

Most often, we complain of mothers with children. And the pain in the heel is in children aged 8 - 12 years of age or have mothers themselves. These are two different issues.

Let's start with children

Children usually hurts the apophysis of the calcaneus. Apophysis - this edge of the bone, to which tendons are attached. Apofizitom called apophysitis.

Apophis child's heel is very thin. He looks at the heel as a metal cap on the bottle neck (Figure 1). In children, it is separated from the heel area of ​​growth. There's bone grows. This gentle and sensitive spot.

By apophyses heel attached Achilles tendon (Figure 2). If a child is running around a lot, engaged in the sports section, or dancing, this place can get sick.

Why this place hurts

One sideThe child at a dance, and in the sections beating the heel on the floor. Especially bad dancers, girls in the dance of Czech, gymnasts, boys in the football boots (if they are tough as adults). Solid or thin sole does not protect the child from the heel strikes, and it starts to hurt.

On the other hand, Any repetitive load in sports, and dance, and children's games through the powerful Achilles tendon pulls children apophysis and rips it from the growth zone. Apophyses gets hurt.

With third party, Piccaninny can so enthusiastically engaged in sports or dance, that the tendon together with the muscle will swing it like a weightlifter and will pull the heel even alone at night.

On the fourth sideChildren grow up, and the tendon can not keep up with his feet. Then it stays short, stretched, and also constantly pulls the heel.

We appreciated the drama Children's heels?

And that's not the most interesting. When children calcaneal apophysis inflamed, then the X-ray, it looks like a slight haze. And it is separated from the heel clouding transparent area and tender growth. Looks like it all, as if the child came off the Achilles tendon to the heel piece.

Ghastly, is not it? Panic starts, begin to carry a child for trauma. Some radiologists or traumatologists seems that children's heel came off or crumbled. In this way they sometimes scare himself, and parents and children.

Then begin to treat the child physiotherapy. Warm ozocerite or something. I myself am a physiotherapist and I like ozokerite, but then it does not help. Sore and swollen place is usually not warm. Then help others.

In this respect it is clear that all? You asked about these heels or about women's heels? Next let's talk about that, that child to do.
