Customized insole treatment can disperse the pressure on the sole of the foot and change the force on the inner side of the knee, greatly reducing the discomfort on the sole of the foot and knee, and you will not be afraid of standing for a long time.
Uncle Wang, 65 years old in Taichung, retired at home. Because he used to work in warehousing, he often stood for more than 3 hours continuously. It was common for him to stand for more than 10 hours throughout the day. In addition, he loves sports and occasionally does it during holidays. I participate in a lot of road running activities. I have been experiencing recurring pain on the inner side of my knee for a long time. I went to the doctor and found out that it was degenerative arthritis. Dr. Zhou Liwei, director of the Rehabilitation Department of Asia University Hospital, recommended a customized insole treatment, which can disperse the pressure on the sole of my foot. It also changes the force on the inner side of the knee, greatly reducing the discomfort in the soles of the feet and knees, and you will not be afraid if you stand for a long time.
Wear customized insoles for regular rehabilitation evaluation
Zhou Liwei said that the patient needs to stand for a long time at work, often squatting and standing up to check goods, and also participates in running activities on holidays, and increases Without proper muscle strength training in the upper limbs, insufficient muscle strength in the lower limbs will lead to degenerative arthritis in the upper body in the long run. Through X-ray examination, it was found that the joint space on the medial side of the patient's knee was narrowed. Regular rehabilitation was recommended. After evaluation, it was recommended to wear customized insoles to improve degenerative arthritis. Sure enough, after the patient put on the foot pads, the discomfort in his knees gradually disappeared. After 2 months, the deterioration of degenerative arthritis was delayed and the cramps and soreness in the feet and calves were reduced.
People who stand and walk for a long time are prone to degenerative arthritis
Zhou Liwei pointed out that degenerative arthritis can be divided into primary and secondary. The former is mostly caused by aging, while the latter is mostly caused by damage to articular cartilage due to injuries, metabolic diseases and other reasons. With the westernization of diet, work style and demands, degenerative arthritis is no longer a patent for the elderly, but is becoming more common among younger people. For example, flight attendants, counter attendants, operators, nurses, etc. need to stand and walk for a long time. Due to the uneven force on the inner and outer sides of the knee, the knee cartilage wears out, the inner knee joint space is narrow, and the force on the soft tissue on the inner knee increases, which in turn causes inner knee pain. .
Control your weight and reduce the burden of lower limb muscle strength training
Occupational therapist Shi Yimai mentioned that through the diagnosis of a rehabilitation physician and the measurement of plantar pressure and correction of foot shape by a therapist , the best arch support curved surface is made into a customized foot pad, which not only assists the plantar fascia and muscle tension, but also provides the heel and arch to absorb the impact of the foot's weight.
Zhou Liwei reminded that knee jams, inability to stand for a long time, squatting and kneeling, etc. are precursors of degenerative arthritis. To prevent premature aging of knee joints, it is recommended that the public should control their weight, exercise appropriately and strengthen their lower limb muscles. Only by training and choosing appropriate shoes and insoles can you properly protect your knees. Join and pay attention to your health every day!
