I’m seeing a podiatrist for this exact problem but she gave me only one exercise. I’m so happy I found your video, lots of things to help! Thank you so much❣️

Thanks Doc! Perfect timing. Inside arch pain is exactly what's been bothering me the last month or so (during the run and a short time after). Looking forward to receiving my derma edge and getting to work on recovery.

Exactly what I needed to know, nothing missed! I went on a 7km run after having rested for about 3 months and I did it on roads. You mentioned how both of them could cause it. Thanks a lot, love from India!

This is the information I’ve been wanting to hear for a long time ,this is exactly what I have ..thanks for your time to share such as an Amazing information.

The best Doc talk ever. Informative and thorough with treatments we can perform at home! Awesome

This is SO HELPFUL!!! I really appreciate this.

Derma edge is wonderful. Has saved me with my planter fasciitis. Thanks for another great video!

Great video, Doc ! While my ankle pain is in another area (front, upper), your instruction encourages me to explore other movements and ways to address this. There is some swelling. No more jumping off the back of my truck. I'm 74.

Going to try these I don’t doubt it will go well. Good work on this visual demonstrations! God Bless

Great video Doctor, I broke my hip as a young teenager, so my left leg is a little shorter. Left foot is flat, right one is not, however no pain to speak of so far. Appreciate the info

That is so helpful, doctors and physics have only recommended orthotics for me for---years! You are looking at the whole picture, thank you.

This is great information in an easy-to-understand presentation. Thank you, Doc!

THANK YOU!!!! ❤. I have been struggling with ankle pain after running a few days ago and it was almost unbearable. Found your video and did the scraping showed and have immediate relief 🥲 Thanks for the tips to avoid in the future! Prob need to change my shoes!

Great job Kristie so much awesome info. Thanks

Excellent video! Great info.

Very informative Doc. I use customised orthotics which really helps and hip exercises. The orthotics are not cheap though

Thank you SO Much for Sharing you expertise! It has helped alot !!

You truly want to help! Outstanding info ❤

Great video! And another exercise to add to my recovery routine! (The side step) Also noticed that if I focus well on the movement I can feel my hip too, so double win!

Hi Doctor! Thank you for this great video! I was wondering since I had no significant pain in the ankle area and can lift up my heels just fine, (although did a massage and indeed my calves are really sore, most likely my flat feet) can I already start on the exercises? The weird thing is my posterior tibial tendon is actually swollen near the malleus and you can feel it go back and forth just by moving your fingers across and I can feel a snapping/popping feeling sometimes! I'm very worried as my cross country season is about to start and this has never happened before? How long do you think this injury will keep me sidelined?

Thank you so much for this informative video.

Hi Dr Christy, I have flat feet. I didn't realize it until I started having a problem with pain in my right foot. Anyway, this all started with playing in a very long weekend of pickleball tournaments. Feet take a beating in the games because of so much lateral moves. Anyway, I been going to PT for 5 weeks. But, recently I ended the treatment. I got a good hold on doing the right exercises. I actually was already doing most these exercises on my own. Also, a lot of stretching before my first went to pt treatment. So my range of motion was excellent. It was the pain and periodically swelling running under the ankle bone and up a little that made me decide to go PT route. Between arthritis and this problem it was deep aches and sharp pains. I had to drop my pickleball Play down to 10 to 12 hours a week from 14 to 16 a week. That's helped a lot and I'm getting better ontop of taking amino acids to make collagen and amino acids to aid in healing tendons. Slowly, I'm healing. But my feet are becoming stronger which is what is needed. But, you video explained a lot of why I do these exercises. I really look learned a lot. Thank you

Great video! Can you tell me if an MRI can detect an injured or inflamed PTT? Thanks!

Fantastically informative and useful video. Many thanks.

Thank you! So informative!

Very good video. Very interesting... Thank you⚘

Thank you for this video! We are full-time RVers and walking is my primary exercise (4 to 6 miles per day). I've been experiencing the pain and a little swelling behind and below my left inside ankle and burning in my left arch. I always walk on the left side of the road to see if I need to jump out of the way and I bet the road camber is causative. I'm going to check out your hip strengthening video also. I am so looking forward to getting rid of this burn.

Great info Dr. Ennis. ❤️Thank you ❤️

Very helpful. I have this issue and it hurts when I try to lift my foot. I've been taking ballet for years but this is hurting me from doing pirouette and other turns, especially endedan turns. Will start these exercises and hope to get better! Thanks! More videos like this please 🙏!

I think u are super 🔥 can't get my eyes away from your vids now lol

Doctor you are very beautiful and I work out with you. Your techniques have been helpful. Thank You

This was very helpful, thanks doc👍

🎯 good info! Thank you!

Same problem seriously, helpful video, thanks

Thanks Doc super info really helpful

Would wearing an ankle brace be helpful? Thank you for the information, I've been icing and stretching for weeks with no improvement now I see why!

I now realize that I suddenly had plantar fasciitis only in my left foot and my right foot has this! Thank you for telling me to stop stretching it. Whew!

thank you for this video! Im a football atlethe and broke my fibula (weber b) + ankle discolation 5 months ago. I dont know if I have tibial tendonitis but when doing an inversion while my aankle is dorsiflexed it hurts alot (painless without resistance but huge pain with resistance bands) Should I do exercises that are in my pain tolerancce or completetly stop for some weeks?

Good video, I'm going to give it a try.

Thank you so much!! Lifesaver!

VERY helpful, I’ll give these a try! 👍

Thank you so much🙏 for all these explanations. I spent so much time trying to find an explanation even my orthopedist didn't told me that. Is fat pad athrophy something to do with tendinis? (tendinopathie)does it go away. Thank a lot

Hey doc can you do one video for ankle ligament weakness. I’ve still not recovered 💯 from 6.5 months

so helpful, thank you

Thanks a lot Dr.nice vedio ..i had back side of arc and front to heal part in my foot really troubles a lot .why this occurs and whom to consul ..plllll suggest me..i can't bear d pain..

hi, can you do video if the reason is the side muscles? and how to strength this these hip side muscles? thanks

In my case it started with a left hamstring pain and running through that pain without addressing it... Eventually the left tibialis pisterion took the hit and now I have 2 issues 😢 thanks for the video. Made me realise that I need to sort the hamster first.

How do you differentiate Posterior Tibial Tendonitis from Insertional Achilles? They are both in similar area and similar pain but biggest difference is that if its Insertional Achilles, it will get flared up if we do exercises you described here. I've been struggling with Insertional for 8 weeks now and trying to figure out what to do...

Thanks you doc I spent the whole summer on the bed because of Posterior Tibial Tendonitis Now i'm healing slowly and i don't want to do anything wrong

Fantastic video - what do you recommend for the hip musculature?

If the ankle is swollen and tender, does an ice pac…what do you recommend or what is your advice?

Always good, useful, effective useful info , presented in a professional and also friendly way by Dr. Kristie. ...It's a pleasure to learn from, and a pleasure to see, Dr. Kristie.

Good info. Ty

Common also skipping rope, one of the main stress is when you do figure like cross legs jumping or having a shoe without enough lateral support, instead of basket or running.

Thanks Kristie, very informative video - I'm a regular runner (48) and recently upped my mileage after 2 months off with a calf injury, I have since developed a pain on the inside of my ankle (looks slightly more swollen than my other ankle and is tender to touch) I think the increase in mileage and reluctance to put full force through my rehabilitated calf ( in fear of damaging it again) has inadvertently changed my running gait and led to this latest 'niggle' - I've since applied 'RICE' - I'm taking a week off to unload the tissue to perform some localised strengthening exercises as demonstrated here.

Thanks Great advice 👍 👌

Can you please do an video on triceps tendinitis. It will great if you do so..

You are awesome. Thanks!

Thanks will try

Thank you so much.

Thank you so much!! 👣

God Bless from Canada

Is it ok to do these exercises in physical therapy when there is still some swelling around the tendon?

Great video I though my ankle was broken or a stress fracture at the minimum. The ER did an X-ray and showed no break. I will rest and try your method. I still can’t bare weight on it yet.

I am so scared I have PTT in my left foot for the past two months, just started PT and they’re focused on STRENGTHENING!! When I’m still in immense pain! And now my right foot is doing the same thing!! What am I gonna do can I get one of those bands on Amazon? What is the resistance/size and thickness of it? I need something real to help this! I love this video I’m going to try all of this all pretty do-able for someone with my conditions…. My PT is not taking my conditions seriously

I feel it right ontop of like the ball thst cones out of your ankle or the ankle u could say but it goes from the top of the big ball ankle thing all the way to like where the ankle disconnects its mostly in the ankle part not the leg

I THINK THAT THESE EXECISES WILL HELP ME WITH MY BALANCE PROBLEMS DUE TO MANY SERGERYS.THANK YOU!

hello , I have the pain about 8 cm up from the anckle I feel the pain when I try to run ,jump and make sprints do you think isthe same problem also I have some swollen on all the side of the tibia .

I’ve been playing a lot of tennis and I stopped doing barre. Need my barre back. I have this. Does barre help

What it means do not use cream? Which cream ur mentioning

Does plantar fasciitis affect your gait?

Dr. Kristie, I cannot find the second Hip Training Video of you, where you are laying on the side and doint leg lifts and leg circles forward, backwards.... I need this really urgently can you link it to me please? thank you !!!

fractured my medial malleolus, and doctor only took x ray and put a cast on for me. After 1.5 months. Took the cast off. And he put me on a boot for 2 more weeks. After that he just sent me home. I still get pain in this area exactly u described. But I get more pain when I try to dorsiflex in that area. Feels like it is locked.

I shattered my ankle and cracked both leg bones almost 14 months ago and still im suffering with aching at the very front of my ankle. Any tips?

Doc I’m so sorry about all the on comments here talking about your appearance rather than the information you’re so kindly giving us 😭

You must have really good venes. No signs of varicosis that I could see. Well done! The video is great too ;)

Thank you! My legs are thick and there is some fluid retention. Is there a house hold item that might sub for a derma edge...until I can get one?

Is PTT something thay can slowly worsen over time? For thebpast 7 years ive notice foot pain in these areas intermittently. Now its become more constant and im just now realizing it's probably this. I've had numerous ankle injuries on this foot growing up playing sports. Im not very active anymore but im also not overweight. I keep weight off by having a good diet. Not sure why it's happening but im wondering if the previous injuries and never treating them properly are taking their toll. Im 37. Im an optometrist so i just walk back and forth from exam rooms. Not a lot of activity.

I’ve had PTT for the last 4 months after my marathon. Been doing physical therapy weekly. It keeps flaring up. Does it get better?

I’m 14 an I do sports it hurts a lot around the the place you said and it restricts some of my foot movement I can’t find anything to help

i have a laieral sprain left ankle. also got 2 shot in my heal marc an april 2021. now the heal pain is back ten fold. im at a loss on what to do. going to another foot dr, for another opinon. my new pt, doesnt think its planter fascitis. he felt like grizzel in my heal.

Kristie for a woman that can't do much damage, you've certainly got me at your mercy.🥋👣

Mine does not hurt when I tip toe but the same part on the inside of the foot hurts when I bend my knees forwards beyond my toes, what does this mean?

Do you have a treatment plan for pers anserine bursitis? I'm a former marathon runner, and had partial medial robotic knee replacement 2 years ago. I'm back to slow running with walking intervals, but have pain in the knee just below the knee cap on the medial side. Other than that the knee is fine.

This is what h I believe has been the culprit since I got past the PF… it’s not super bad but sometimes it sings more than others…

I tell ALL my patients, try off the shelf first. I swear, everyone where I live, wants to go get a custom orthodic. Nothing against my local providers, but please, try the simple stuff first. Great exercises as always.

Is New Hampshire pretty cool?

I have this problem for 2 years I d everything nothing works so wensday I have inyecion fron enbrion I don't no if works but I tried

I can’t put weight on my heal when in bare feet along side of posterior tribial tendonitis, I have high arch

I stand all day for a living and no insoles or support help my pain. Laying down at night it aches and feels weird had Mri no tears

what about sole pain?between the ball and heel. is its possible fracture or tendon. running

So what can I do if I was born with flat feet? I’ve now hit 40 and I’m in constant pain - either it’s one ankle, or the the other, or both. I’m exercising using an elastic band and heel raises but can’t do balance as my feet never had an arch and they’ll just collapse.

If the pain/discomfort only presents 20-30 min into activity (eg running) is it just a load issue then?

I have beaten posterior tibial tendonitis in 9 months! Read closely I am writing this because I would have died for someone to tell me this information when this first started when I though there was no way out. Now through all of these steps make sure to take Moringa, turmeric ,ginger and cocoa which are highly recommended for beating the inflammation (make sure to check with your doctor first to make sure these are safe for you to take 1st) and take collagen 1 and 3 preferably from green lakes or native path as well as tendoforte collagen from salt wrap or sparkling wellness which is a little cheaper. Now I was in agonzing pain with both ankles every time I would walk it literally felt like someone was shoving a staple through my tendon so it may depend on the amount of damage done with the time lapse needed on each step but I can only personally share my experience and if I would have done this the right way I probably could have healed a lot faster so here we go. Step 1. Relax your ankle for the first month to two always walk with a brace never unsupported as well as a shoe with a good orthotic always ( orthofeet reccomended) and ice to bring down infllammation I just shoved my foot in an ice bucket but any way is possible to help bring down the inflammation when walking supported gets noticeably easier its time for step 2.Step 2. once the inflammation stage starts to get better this is when stretching, rolling your legs and foot as well as taking longer walks comes into play but still always supported by an ankle brace or something just to keep you arch supported so the tendon can heal but take on a little pressure from the walking. Step 3. this should be at the 3 to 4th month time lapse once you are a professional at walking now comes strengthening a little bit more intensily with calf raises only off the ground I started with 5 the first day 10 the next until I finally made it to one hundred with out a problem from here you should be 65% improved if on any of these steps you do feel pain stop right away and go back to the earlier step you are not ready. Healing for me was a two feet ahead one step back process so be careful keep stretching and monitoring yourself. Step 4. Now when calf raises get easy start to use lotion and give your tendon a deep massage to tear up the tissue I would recommend watching a video on this first then as soon as soon as you are done walking or calf raises need to be done because the whole idea is that you are breaking up the scar tissue with the massage and realigning it with the exercise.Also start to motion your foot in a circle 5 times each way to improve mobility. By now you should be on month six and 85% better now its time for the final step. Step 5. Now at this point you should be more able to walk with out a cast unsupported not is when I started using the theraband I would point my calf down with the band on the ball of my foot and pull it in start with the weakest band start 5 then next day ten and until you can hit twenty then fifty by now you should be at almost 100%. Things to not do do not use n said cream I did this and luckily stopped and found out later it actually weakens the tendon long run. If your foot starts breaking down like all the tendons in my foot did stretch and stick in a bucket of ice every night eventually won't have to but from steps 2 to 4 this was a nightly ritual. Subliminal and mprphic fields may help speed up the process as well I definitely recommend sapien medicine for the fields. Like I said this can be done in a good amount of time if done right. Any question feel free to ask Good luck!

Please doc help. Toren this some time ago. Had MRI. Surgery with 3 to4 months off. Don't want Surgery. What can I do.

I'm severely flatfooted and have been playing football recently. I didn't think I would ever get back to playing again (i play less now than i used to) after a 60min session last night I'm in a bit pain and hurts when I walk. if I strengthen this and do a slow increase in the duration I play? will this improve?

Hey Doc. I've been facing issue with my ankle for more than 6 or 7 years. It hurts after running when I take of the shoes. Or sometimes suddenly while walking. I've been doing ankle strengthening and balancing exercises however the pain is still there. Can't turn the ankle inside or roll it like the other leg.

she is really pretty

Hi i dont have derma edge. Can i just use a smooth rock?

Wow I never knew this. I think I have this. My ankles hurt so much it aches all the time. I have so much trouble at night when I need to get up to go to the bathroom, or when I get up in morning. I am not a running or walker now that my feet hurt so bad. I need to get some shoes that will help.
