SOLEUS PAIN ⠀ If this muscle is tense or carries trigger points (TP’s), it can cause various ailments and pains. ⠀ Tensions & TP’s in the soleus can lead to pain in the calf, heel, sacroiliac joint and jaw. Note that tension usually leads to local pain and sensitivity of pressure. TP’s on the other hand, can refer pain to distant regions of the body. ⠀ Pain pattern sacroiliac joint & jaw (TrP3): This TP arises very rarely and can trigger pain at the sacroiliac joint and in the temporomandibular joint (not shown). It’s located at the lower lateral portion of the soleus, just before it “merges” into the Achilles tendon. ⠀ Pain pattern calf & back of knee (TrP2): This TP is located at the uppermost part of the muscle. It often triggers pain in the middle of the calf, which may extend into the hollow of the knee. This is why it contributes to calf pain & pain in the hollow of the knee ⠀ Pain pattern heel & Achilles tendon (TrP 1): This TP sits in the lowest part of the muscle, in the lateral area directly next to and above the Achilles tendon. If it is active, it can trigger pain in the area of the Achilles tendon and of the heel. It thus contributes to Achilles & heel pain ⠀ ▫️Pain during exercise: The pain described above (especially calf & heel pain) usually arises during exercise, namely during walking and standing. Overall walking uphill or downhill and climbing stairs often causes great problems. The pain can be so severe that it is unbearable to stand and put any weight on your heels. ⠀ ▫️Limited mobility in the ankle joint: TP’s in the soleus often lead to limited mobility in the ankle. This means that affected persons are no longer able to bend it. Nevertheless, to sink down on one‘s knees requires exactly this mobility, otherwise compensation movements would occur (you get down on your knees and lift your heels or you bend over with a round back). ⠀ ▫️Edema in calf and ankle joint: The soleus contributes to the venous return. TP’s in the superior part of the muscle can impair this function and subsequently lead to edema in the area of the ankle joint and calf. ⠀ #Physiotherapy #NPTO #Soleus #Anatomy #physical_therapy SUNSHINE ® SUPER SPECIALITY PHYSIOTHERAPY CLINIC - #DrParthiban #Sunshinephysioclinic.in #Physiotherapyclinicintambaram #Physiotherapyclinicnearme DR.M.P.
