How a Morton’s Toe Can Make Your Back Hurt
There are different types of chronic back pain, including lower back pain and upper back pain.
A Morton’s Toe can cause lower back pain by causing Pronation or Myofascial Pain.
Dr. Janet Travell wrote that if your foot is not working right because of Morton’s Toe it can cause many muscles to be stressed and injured. One of these muscles is the Gluteus Medius of the lower back. If this muscle gets strained it can cause you to have lower back pain, also known as lumbago. The Morton’s Toe may be causing your Gluteus Medius Muscle to be strained. Lower back pain relief can by accomplished by treating the Morton’s Toe problems.
Some other causes for lower and upper back pain can include:
Arthritis of the Spine
Spinal Stenosis, or narrowing of ths spinal canal
Herniation of the disc
Rupured disc
Osteoporosis
Spondylolisthesis
Most modern doctors have no idea that a Morton’s Toe can cause back problems so you may have to point this out to them, especially if you have been suffering with your back problem for some time.
The good news is lower back pain can be relieved by treating the Morton’s Toe that could be casuing the back pain to start with.
