Fallen arches, T-bone tunnel syndrome, bunion, etc.: adrenal fatigue as a predisposing factor

A fallen arch, often referred to as a pes planus, refers to a person's arch when the person touches the ground while standing. The main muscle responsible for supporting the arch is the posterior tibial muscle. It passes through the spinal cord, the fifth lumbar nerve root [low back], the sciatic nerve receives an "indication" to support the arch from the brain, and finally passes through the t-bone tunnel as the tibia. Therefore, any dislocation of the waist will "squeeze" the nerve supply and cause muscle failure.

There may be problems with falling arches for several reasons...

First, the increased pressure on the foot stretches the ligament, permanently changing the body's base and increasing the internal rotation [inward rolling]. This, in turn, will change the ankle, knee and hip mechanics. When the buttocks turn in [usually on one side more than the other], the pelvis tilts more to one side. When the buttocks are not flat, the spine must be twisted and bent to accommodate changes from head to head. Basically, flat feet may be a predisposing factor, complex factor and causative factor for musculoskeletal pain from head to toe.

In particular, once the arch collapses, the t-bone tunnel can shrink and affect the nerves entering and exiting the foot, leading to further weakness and paresthesia [stinging]. Even if the arch is extended, the foot will turn over and place the weight of the body on the inside of the foot instead of the bottom. This usually results in a big toe that deforms the hallux or hallux valgus.

Sometimes, when the individual is born, the feet are flat, but due to lifestyle, the feet will develop. Clinical observations have shown that the posterior tibial muscle is inhibited under excessive stress. Stress can be mental - emotion, chemistry - nutrition, structure [any previous injury / illness] or heat. The adrenal glands are responsible for producing stress hormones, just like muscles, they become exhausted. We can't turn off stress, but we can control how we manage stress. In the field of applied kinematics, there are several approaches to managing these cases based on four types of stress:

1. Reduce mentality - emotional stress [or improve coping strategies]. This may include counseling, meditation, breathing exercises, general sports, etc.

2. Improve biochemistry by treating infections and removing toxins [colognes, perfumes, scented lotions, florals, paints, solvents, heavy metals, etc.]. It is also important to increase the intake of vitamin cofactors A, C, E, Zn, B3, B5 and folic acid.

3. Evaluate the structural integrity mentioned earlier. This is best performed by a professionally applied exercise scientist chiropractor. Spinal and limb adjustments, foot bandages, acupuncture and orthoses may be required.

4. Reduce any possible thermal stresses. This situation is rare, but should not be overlooked, especially during extreme weather or seasonal fluctuations.

For a comprehensive approach to prevention, please evaluate it by a professional applied exerciser. Train this person to test the muscles involved and to rule out other factors. Visit the International Applied Sports Function Academy online to find nearby professionals.
