What to do if you have pain on the inner side of your calf

Female friends often wear high heels all day long due to work needs. At the end of the day, they always feel stiff and painful calf muscles. If the pain is caused by wearing high heels for too long, we can massage the inside of our calves during rest, which can effectively relieve the pain on the inside of the calves. In addition, we can soak our feet in warm water at home to relieve the pain. Today we are talking about a condition that causes pain on the inside of the calf, which is periostitis. What should we do about tympanitis?

One of the conditions that causes calf pain is periostitis. If you do not have enough physical activities and poor muscle coordination, and suddenly increase your exercise, run and jump training, and the activity time is too long, the foot repeatedly pushes back during running and jumping, and the calf muscles are in a state of tension for a long time, and the muscles are constantly pulled, causing the tibia and fibula periosteum to tear and injure, the periosteum and periosteal blood vessels to expand, become congested and edematous, or the subperiosteal hemorrhage and hematoma are organized, and the periostium proliferates and inflammatory changes. This is periostitis.

Treatment of periostitis:

1. Timely and clear diagnosis

The main symptoms of periostitis are joint swelling, followed by pain, dysfunction, and muscle atrophy. Some patients blindly receive treatment without a correct diagnosis, thus losing the best time for treatment.

2. Timely and effective comprehensive treatment

Timely, regular and effective treatment after diagnosis is the key. Antibiotic treatment in the early stages of periostitis can achieve satisfactory results.

3. Timely functional training and post-rehabilitation care

During the treatment of periostitis, it is recommended to carry out treatment and functional exercise simultaneously to avoid post-healing complications.

prevention:

1. When doing various physical exercises, you must follow the principle of gradual progress and not be impatient for quick results.

2. Do warm-up exercises before exercise to enhance the adaptability of your calves. Do not increase the amount of exercise suddenly, and do not perform intensity training directly without any preparation.

3. Try to avoid exercising on hard or uneven surfaces.

4. Pay attention to mastering the key points of training movements, pay attention to relaxation when running and jumping, and cushioning when landing. Do self-massage of the calves and hot bath after exercise training to relax muscles and eliminate fatigue.

5. When periostitis occurs, avoid rubbing the painful points on the inner side of the lower leg with heavy techniques, so as not to stimulate the periosteum and cause reactive thickening, which will prolong the healing time.

To sum up, if periostitis is not properly treated, it will have a great impact on our lives, so friends who have the above conditions should go to the hospital in time to avoid worsening of the situation. I hope that patients can recover!
