Tibialis Posterior Syndrome: Understanding and Managing with Physio360.

INTRODUCTION:

Tibialis Posterior Syndrome, often underrecognized, can significantly impair mobility and daily function. At Physio360, we specialize in providing effective, individualized care for this condition, helping you regain strength, stability, and pain-free movement.

What is Tibialis Posterior Syndrome?

The tibialis posterior is a key stabilizing muscle in your lower leg, running along the inside of your ankle and foot. It plays a critical role in supporting the arch of your foot and facilitating movements such as walking and running. Tibialis Posterior Syndrome occurs when the muscle or its tendon becomes inflamed, overstressed, or torn, leading to pain and dysfunction.

Causes and Risk Factors.

This condition can arise from various factors, including:

• Overuse from activities like running or jumping.

• Poor biomechanics, such as flat feet or high arches.

• A sudden increase in physical activity.

• Trauma or injury to the ankle.

• Age-related degeneration of the tendon.

  
  

Symptoms to Watch For.

• Pain along the inside of the ankle and foot.

• Swelling around the affected area.

• Difficulty standing on tiptoes or walking long distances.

• Flattening of the arch over time leads to a flatfoot deformity.

If you experience any of these symptoms, early intervention is crucial to prevent long-term complications.
