How is an MRI examination of the lower extremities done and what does the diagnosis of the lower leg, veins, soft tissues and joints show?

Currently, MRI remains one of the most informative methods for visualizing soft tissues (vessels, ligaments, nerve fibers, muscles, etc.) and making the correct diagnosis. During the examination, specialists obtain layer-by-layer images of individual areas, which cannot be done using ultrasound, x-rays or other diagnostic methods. What is MRI of the lower extremities, how is it performed and what will the study show? Let's figure it out together.

Indications and contraindications for MRI of the lower extremities

Common reasons that require an MRI of the leg are chronic rheumatic diseases or loss of vascular tone and the formation of deposits in them. Usually, a study of a separate area of ​​the lower limb in which the pathological process develops is prescribed.

Indications for performing MRI include the following conditions:

  • pain that persists in the patient after treatment;
  • complete numbness or lack of sensitivity in different parts of the limb;
  • fresh and old injuries of bone structures or soft tissues;
  • slow bone healing, formation of a false joint, tendon tears, hemorrhages;
  • suspicion of the presence of neoplasms, metastases and monitoring of cancer treatment;
  • jamming of the joint with limited mobility of the leg;
  • suspicion of thrombosis;
  • determination of pathologies of vascular network development;
  • examination before and after surgery;
  • clarification of the diagnosis after diagnosis using other hardware methods.
  • There are few contraindications for performing the study. The absolute ones include:

    • the presence of foreign bodies made of metal (implants, prostheses, etc.), with the exception of titanium;
    • the presence in the body of devices that ensure its normal functioning - cardiac and nerve stimulants, insulin pumps, etc.

    Carrying out a procedure with contrast enhancement is undesirable for pregnant and lactating women, patients with impaired renal function. Also a contraindication is if a person is allergic to drugs with gadolinium (the contrast agent used).

    What soft tissues, joints and vessels are examined?

    An MRI examination of the leg involves the diagnosis of the buttocks, soft tissues of the lower leg and thigh, including tendons, ligaments, muscles, nerve fibers, fat, veins and arteries, as well as joints. Examination of the buttock area allows you to assess the condition of the piriformis muscle and blood vessels in this area.

    The lower leg is the most difficult part of the leg to diagnose, so patients are often prescribed contrast injection during tomography, which makes it possible to determine the location of the source of inflammation or damage to the tendons and muscles.

    What does a leg tomography show?

    MRI examinations help identify many abnormal processes occurring in the limbs. Diagnostics shows:

  • injuries (fractures and cracks of bones, torn ligaments, accumulation of blood after an impact);
  • consequences of damage (scars and fibrosis, bone calluses);
  • enlarged lymph nodes;
  • phlebitis, abscess, osteomyelitis and other inflammatory diseases;
  • dystrophic changes (decreased thickness of joint cartilage, decreased mobility, etc.);
  • pinched and injured nerves;
  • contusion and stretching of muscle fibers;
  • benign tumors and cancer, as well as metastases.
  • MRI is often used to determine the presence of the following formations localized in soft tissues:

    1. Fibrosarcoma is a malignant tumor that develops in connective tissue. Most often, it is localized in the thigh, located deep in the muscles, which is why it does not cause disturbances in the functioning of the lower limb, and therefore is often discovered by chance.
    2. Lipoma is the most common formation that develops in adipose tissue. It rarely degenerates into a malignant form.
    3. Hemangioma is a benign tumor of vascular origin in the form of a node with a diameter of several centimeters. Sometimes it turns into an oncological form - angiosarcoma.
    4. Based on the results of the examination, the attending physician prescribes a biopsy. This histological analysis will identify degenerated cells, and the doctor will draw up a final conclusion and make a diagnosis.

      Under the influence of external negative factors, a person may experience disturbances in blood circulation. To search for the causes of such pathologies, MRI of the vessels of the lower extremities is prescribed, which allows us to identify:

    5. vasculitis, affecting the walls of blood vessels;
    6. aneurysm - expansion or protrusion of the artery wall;
    7. atherosclerosis, manifested by cholesterol deposition;
    8. vasoconstriction;
    9. the presence of plaques and blood clots, ischemia.
    10. How is MRI of the lower extremities performed?

      First, gadolinium is injected into a vein. The drug may cause unpleasant sensations in the form of an iron taste in the mouth or a feeling of cold or warmth spreading throughout the body. The component that “illuminates” the cells is used when examining the lower leg, blood vessels, and to search for tumors.

      The procedure consists of several stages:

    11. the patient arrives at the clinic 15-20 minutes before the appointed time, removes metal jewelry, leaves electronic devices (they can negatively affect the diagnostic results);
    12. the person is placed on a table, which, when the device is started, slides into the device;
    13. the tunnel part of the device rotates around the area under study during the session, producing clicks and other noise;
    14. During the diagnosis, which lasts about 20 minutes, you should remain still (with the introduction of contrast, the time increases by 2 times);
    15. When all images are taken, the procedure is considered complete.
    16. MRI is a safe and painless diagnostic method. After all the manipulations, the person can immediately go home. It will take a specialist 1-3 hours to decipher the images. Some clinics offer a service for sending results to the patient by email.

      Prices for examining tissues of the thigh, lower leg and joints in different clinics depend on many factors: type of equipment, qualifications of the specialist, location of the institution. The cost of the procedure in the capital can vary between 5-10 thousand rubles, in other large cities - 3-7 thousand. For an additional fee, you can print photographs on film and record them on electronic media.

      Interestingly, in some cities, diagnostics using an MRI scanner is performed 24 hours a day. An overnight examination will cost the patient slightly less than a day session.

      Head, spine, internal organs, soft tissues, joints, blood vessels

      Head, spine, organs and soft tissues, joints and bones, blood vessels

      When diagnosing pathologies of the lower extremities, MRI allows one to assess the morphological state of soft tissues, ligaments, tendons, nerves, cartilage, femoral arteries and other vessels, knee, ankle and other joints.

      Magnetic resonance imaging of the leg is recommended for restrictions or blocking of movements, pain, stiffness, swelling of the knee or foot and other symptoms that suggest the development of a disease or the consequence of injuries. The study is also carried out if symptoms continue, if the results of other diagnostic methods are normal and if previous examinations cannot clearly determine the pathological change.

      Most often, MRI of the leg is performed to diagnose the following pathological processes:

    17. congenital or acquired anomalies of the knee, ankle and other joints;
    18. fractures, complex dislocations, bruises, sprains, ruptures of ligaments, tendons and muscles;
    19. inflammatory processes;
    20. infections;
    21. the presence of non-metallic foreign bodies in tissues;
    22. arteriovenous malformations, thrombosis and other vascular disorders;
    23. osteomyelitis;
    24. pinched nerves and tendons;
    25. arthritis, arthrosis of the joints;
    26. neoplasms of joints and surrounding tissues of various types;
    27. hemorrhages;
    28. joint instability;
    29. consequences of trauma.
    30. During the study, it is possible to record the slightest changes in the structure of the joint, blood vessels, and soft tissues. For example, tomography of the knee allows you to visualize the joint capsule, cartilage, ligaments, menisci and other components that often undergo pathological changes and are difficult to distinguish using other diagnostic methods, including ultrasound.

      Tomography of the lower extremities can be performed without contrast enhancement. However, in cases where it is necessary to identify tumors or inflammatory processes that are characterized by increased blood circulation, diagnosis is carried out with intravenous contrast. This is due to the fact that the contrast, coloring the vessels, passes into the tissues and accumulates in them. And the more active the blood flow in a certain area of ​​the body, the better the image quality. Also, thanks to contrast enhancement, it is possible to judge ongoing bleeding and the formation of an aneurysm.

      In conclusion, we note that the diagnosis is safe for health, since it does not involve radiation exposure, and is absolutely painless.

      Why do MRIs of the legs?

      MRI of the leg is one of the most popular and recommended modern types of examination for problems with the ankle or knee joints.

      It is also often used to identify the characteristics and pathologies of the vessels of the lower extremities.

      Advantages and features of MRI

      Both young and old people are susceptible to various types of joint injuries: dislocations or sprains.

      These are the everyday annoying problems that most people face these days.

      Atherosclerosis and osteochondrosis are becoming common diseases and are becoming more common even in young and middle-aged people.

      Ordinary, but no less painful: they need to be identified and treated in time. The modern rhythm of life requires a person to be able to quickly “get back on his feet.”

      Therefore, people often resort to this type of diagnosis in order to quickly receive a high-quality and complete examination, a correct diagnosis and treatment.

      This research method is also recommended in complex cases with ambiguous symptoms for an in-depth study of the disease picture.

      The action of the MRI diagnostic method is based on the effect of nuclear magnetic resonance (MMR). This effect was first noticed and studied in the middle of the last century, and found its application in medicine another 30 years later.

      Since then, the MRI method has confirmed its exceptional information content, convenience and safety.

      Unlike radiography, it does not irradiate the patient and shows a clear and three-dimensional image of the problem area, and it is easier to examine the structures of blood vessels or joints than with ultrasound.

      Modern MRI machines are very convenient for conducting research and are made so that the patient feels as comfortable as possible during the procedure.

      There are several varieties of these devices: they can be closed or open, and are also designed for different weights. Open type devices are considered less informative.

      The MRI method copes well with pressing and serious problems, helping doctors quickly and competently make a diagnosis and choose a treatment strategy. With its help you can get a clear three-dimensional image of any area of ​​the human body.

      Tomography can be performed with or without contrast. Contrast is most often used to fully study the structural features of blood vessels.

      When examining joints, contrast is usually used to better identify tumors. When examining the vessels of the lower extremities, a contrast agent is injected into the artery before the procedure.

      This method will allow you to examine the features of joints or vessels in different sections from several sides without invasive examination, which is especially good for patients in a weakened state, the elderly and children.

      Indications and contraindications

      One of the general indications for MRI of the vessels of the lower extremities is disturbances in the venous or arterial circulation, which may be a consequence of the influence of various factors - sedentary or, conversely, “standing” work, the appearance of abnormal formations, poor lifestyle, vascular injuries, and family history.

      Depending on the purpose of the study, the MRI procedure of the legs can be performed partially or completely, from one or from different sides.

      Only a doctor can accurately determine the required area for examination, highlighting a narrow area or deciding to conduct a more general diagnosis.

      Other indications for the use of MRI include:

    31. numbness and pain in the legs, atrophic changes with loss of strength;
    32. changes in sensitivity and skin color;
    33. gangrene;
    34. the presence of chronic atherosclerosis and obliterating endarteritis;
    35. vascular damage;
    36. a history of acute venous insufficiency or chronic arterial obstruction;
    37. suspicion of thrombosis;
    38. suspicion of hemangiomas or angiosarcomas;
    39. suspicion of tumor growth into neighboring tissues;
    40. vascular anomalies.
    41. Pathological processes in the joints of the legs have a wide variety of etiologies. This could be the consequences of various types of injuries or the result of an advanced disease.

      MRI will provide the clearest possible diagnosis of various types of pathologies in tissues and joints.

      This research method allows you to avoid punctures, invasive interventions, as well as unnecessary radiation during the next X-ray examination.

      Diagnosis of joints using MRI will also have its own indications:

    42. identification of the inflammatory process in the joint;
    43. the presence of pathological processes inside the bones;
    44. neoplasms of various nature;
    45. atrophic changes in joints.
    46. To accurately localize tumors, the doctor may prescribe an MRI with contrast. Due to some specificity of the method, there are contraindications to the use of this type of research.

      The MRI procedure cannot be performed on people who have metal prostheses.

      During the examination, a strong magnetic field is created, and the presence of such elements (on or in the body) can cause harm to the patient’s health.

      For the same reasons, MRI is contraindicated for people with tattoos or makeup, since the paint used for the tattoo or cosmetics may contain metal elements. Accordingly, before the procedure it is necessary to remove from yourself all objects and things that may contain metal.

      MRI is contraindicated for people with mental problems due to the specifics of the procedure, and for those who cannot be at rest or are afraid of confined spaces.

      This method is not suitable for people weighing over 130 kg. MRI is contraindicated for pregnant women in the first trimester.

      In the second and third trimesters, this procedure can be carried out if it is objectively important, but it is advisable to resort to it as rarely as possible.

      The technique is not recommended for people with kidney failure. Patients with an allergic reaction to contrast agents do not undergo MRI with contrast.

      Preparation and conduct of the study

      Before performing a tomography, you need to prepare for it.

      As already written above, before the procedure you need to remove all metal things from yourself and generally remove them from the room in which the examination will be carried out. It is advisable not to wear cosmetics on the day of the MRI.

      Since the procedure can be long, and the patient will need to remain motionless all this time, it is necessary to prepare in advance and get rid of irritating factors.

      It may be better to go to the toilet before the test. For a better analysis of the disease picture, you need to tell your doctor about the results of previously performed procedures (if any).

      An MRI machine is a hollow capsule in which the patient lies during the diagnosis. As a rule, the required body position for examination is the supine position.

      The position depends on the purpose of the study. If necessary, a specialist will tell you how to turn around. Also, depending on the purpose of the procedure, the patient may be completely or partially in the capsule.

      Sometimes, with an incomplete examination of the legs (for example, when diagnosing the ankle joints), the person is conveniently positioned in such a way that only his feet will be in the capsule.

      During the procedure, the patient is restrained and should try to remain motionless throughout the entire examination, which can last 30 to 45 minutes.

      The machine will make loud buzzing and clicking sounds, so the patient will be asked to use headphones or earplugs.

      During the entire examination session, the patient and the diagnostician can maintain voice communication.

      After analyzing the information obtained during the MRI, the doctor can make a diagnosis and select the necessary type of treatment.

      MRI of the leg is the easiest way to obtain comprehensive information about the condition of the bones, joints and soft tissues of the lower limb, to establish the extent of the pathological process, and to monitor how effective the treatment is.

      What does an MRI of the leg show?

      The examination allows us to identify an extensive list of pathological processes in the tissues of the limb. It can be:

    47. features of limb development;
    48. various injuries: fractures, bone cracks, tears and ruptures of tendons, ligaments and muscles, hematomas;
    49. consequences of injuries: callus, scars, old fractures, areas of fibrosis;
    50. inflammatory processes: osteomyelitis, arthritis, phlebitis, phlegmon, abscess;
    51. neoplasms: benign and malignant tumors, metastases;
    52. degenerative-dystrophic changes in joints: arthrosis, osteophytes, decreased thickness of articular cartilage, foreign body of the joint;
    53. vascular diseases: thrombophlebitis, phlebothrombosis, tissue ischemia;
    54. nerve diseases: neuromas, pinched nerves, nerve injuries;
    55. enlargement of regional lymph nodes.

    Indications for MRI of the legs

    Usually an MRI is prescribed for one area of ​​the leg in which the pathological process occurs. This may be an MRI of the joints of the legs (ankle, knee, hip), foot, lower leg or thigh.

    Indications for the procedure will be:

  • injuries of the joint, bone or soft tissue of the limb, both fresh and old: fractures, formation of a false joint, delayed healing of the fracture, damage to the joint structures, damage to the ligaments and tendons that hold the articular surfaces, rupture of the joint capsule, hemorrhage in the joint;
  • joint pain that does not go away after a course of treatment;
  • limited joint mobility, joint jamming;
  • neoplasms of bones and soft tissues of the leg, metastases, clarification of the stage of the oncological process;
  • the presence of pathology on X-ray or ultrasound data, when the data obtained is not enough to make a diagnosis;
  • feeling of instability in the joints;
  • the presence of orthopedic implants that cause discomfort to the patient and cause complaints;
  • examination before surgery;
  • monitoring the results of the operation;
  • monitoring the persistence of cancer remission achieved as a result of treatment.
  • Contraindications for the procedure

    There are two separate groups of contraindications for magnetic resonance imaging and for the use of contrast, a drug that is administered intravenously and is used to obtain clearer images.

    Absolute contraindications for MRI of the leg:

  • the presence of any metal foreign bodies in the patient’s body, with the exception of titanium;
  • the presence of implanted devices, the correct functioning of which ensures the vital functions of the body: insulin pump, pacemaker, nerve stimulator, etc.
  • Contrast-enhanced MRI is not performed if:

  • the woman is pregnant;
  • a woman feeds a baby with breast milk;
  • the patient has chronic renal failure;
  • Intolerance to gadolinium-based contrast agents in the past has been noted.
  • Preparation for the procedure

    No special preparation is required before the examination. On the day on which the MRI is scheduled, you can eat and take medications at the usual times, drink water and other drinks as needed.

    If the patient suffers from claustrophobia and is worried about how everything will go, then you can take a sedative on the day of the procedure.

    How does the procedure work?

    It is advisable to arrive at the clinic 15-20 minutes before the start of the procedure. This time is necessary in order to have time to change clothes, remove jewelry and leave watches, phones and other electronic gadgets in the locker room that can be damaged by the powerful magnetic field of the device.

    Contrast is administered immediately before the procedure begins through a special catheter inserted into a vein.

    The patient is placed on a special table, lying on his back. You must remain completely still during the examination.

    After the doctor obtains images of the area being examined, the catheter in the vein will be removed and the patient will be allowed to change into their own clothes.

    Decoding the results

    Usually it takes the doctor from 1 to 3 hours to decipher. Therefore, the doctor’s opinion will have to wait. If it is not possible to stay in the clinic, you can receive images and a doctor’s report by email.

    When deciphering the received data, the doctor can take into account not only the changes that he sees in the images, but also the results of other instrumental examinations, previously made diagnoses and treatment. It is recommended to take an extract from the outpatient card or hospital epicrisis, if any, with you to the MRI of the leg.

    How often can you get an MRI of your leg?

    The number of MRI procedures and the frequency with which they can be performed are not regulated, since the magnetic field used to obtain images does not in any way affect the human body and does not adversely affect the condition of organs and systems. In this regard, the examination can be repeated as often as necessary for diagnosis, monitoring the development of the pathological process, and monitoring the results of treatment.

    MRI of vessels of the lower extremities - legs

    human circulatory system Modern diagnostic research is unthinkable without the use of high-precision MRI devices, which make it possible to scan organs and convert the received signals from a series of multiple thin sections into high-quality images.

  • Vascular conditions
  • Prevalence of pathological processes
  • Presence of abnormal formations
  • Circulatory disorders associated with changes in the functional parameters of blood flow
  • In addition, based on the obtained computer-processed images, the doctor can build a three-dimensional three-dimensional model of a network of vessels with different functional features and tissue composition. Such 3D modeling of MRI of leg vessels provides the specialist with the opportunity to carry out visual analysis (visual study of the disease).

    Indications for MRI of extremities

    As a result of the influence of numerous factors on the physiological state of the lower extremities, the arterial and venous circulation of the legs fails. In order to determine the severity of blood flow disturbances and identify the causes of this, MRI of the vessels of the lower extremities is used - a procedure that can identify with maximum accuracy the slightest abnormal formations, possible vascular injuries, and determine the development of diseases at an early stage of development.

    Magnetic resonance imaging scanning of the extremities of the arms and legs can be performed in whole or in part (one segment), on both sides or only on one. The choice of the necessary research object remains with the attending physician and depends on the characteristics and symptoms of the predicted disease. The following reasons for performing MRI of the vessels of the extremities can be identified:

    • Soreness and numbness of the limbs, a feeling of weakness and uncontrollability, partial atrophy with decreased muscle strength
    • Impaired sensitivity and visual changes in the skin (for example, limbs turn pale or, conversely, acquire a rubella tint)
    • Formation of trophic ulcers (tissue gangrene)
    • Chronic diseases of the arteries of the legs (peripheral arteries) - atherosclerosis and obliterating endarteritis (rheumatic disease)
    • Damage (injury) to blood vessels
    • Diseases of large blood vessels (acute venous insufficiency, chronic arterial obstruction)
    • Detection of an aneurysm (stretching or thinning of the walls of blood vessels)
    • Venous thrombosis (blood flow is obstructed, complete or partial blockage of blood vessels occurs, the detached thrombus is carried into the circulatory system)
    • Confirmation or refutation of the presence of benign (hemangiomas) or malignant (angiosarcomas) vascular tumors
    • Detection of tumor growth into surrounding tissues and possible compression of blood vessels
    • Detection of vascular abnormalities
    • By diagnosing the vessels of the lower extremities using an MRI scanner and studying all the information received, a specialist can establish an accurate diagnosis, making a conclusion about the necessary treatment and choosing promising methods of therapy.

      An MRI of the vessels of the legs is performed. If we are talking about various pathologies associated with diseases of the blood vessels and soft tissues of the lower extremities, then the most relevant diagnostic technique is MRI with contrast or angiography. The essence of the method is that immediately before the procedure the patient is injected with a special substance (contrast) into the femoral artery.

      Based on an MRI angiography study of the vessels of the lower extremities, the functional and anatomical features of blood flow are assessed. This diagnostic method includes several research methods:

      1. Peripheral arteriography (analysis of arteries)
      2. Peripheral venography or venography (vein analysis)
      3. Lymphography (analysis of lymphatic vessels)
      4. When artificially contrasting blood vessels, an organic solution of iodine is administered, but in case of an allergic reaction to this element, angiography is unacceptable. In addition, magnetic resonance imaging using a contrast agent is contraindicated in the following situations:

      5. If the patient has an acute inflammatory or infectious disease
      6. If the patient is in serious condition
      7. If the patient has psychological problems
      8. If the patient has acute renal, cardiac and liver failure
      9. Thanks to the digital technology inherent in angiography, the risk of diagnostic trauma has been reduced. This research technique is a safe and highly informative procedure for analyzing and studying the condition of blood vessels.

        9 reasons why your feet hurt

        “My legs are buzzing!” - we complain at the end of a hard day. But pain in the legs can occur not only from fatigue. Let's talk about the reasons more seriously.

        Atherosclerosis of the arteries

        Atherosclerosis of the arteries can be indicated by pain in the calves and cramps that occur when walking, running, climbing stairs, and also at night. Both in winter and in summer, with this disease, the feet are always cold. The pulse on the big toe is very difficult to feel. Men may experience problems with potency, and hair stops growing on their toes.

        Treatment. For treatment, you should contact a vascular surgeon and undergo ultrasound and magnetic resonance contrast angiography. Smokers, please note that the passion for tobacco aggravates the disease, which in serious cases turns into gangrene.

        Endarteritis is an inflammatory process of arterial tissue. It is characterized by acute pain in the calf or foot when walking, occurring after the first 50–100 steps. In addition, there may be numbness in the legs. If you stop and rest, the symptoms go away. However, after some time they appear again.

        Treatment. If endarteritis is suspected, the vascular surgeon prescribes a comprehensive examination: MRI, angiography, vascular ultrasound, blood tests for inflammatory factors. If you feel sudden, very severe pain, call an ambulance - there may be a blockage of a large artery. Endarteritis is treated conservatively, as well as surgically.

        With arthrosis, arthritis, acute pain occurs in the joint area when walking. In addition, the joints begin to “twist” in cases where you have to stand for a long time. At the same time, the joints themselves begin to “click,” and swelling and redness may appear around them. What is typical: when the weather changes, the pain intensifies.

        Treatment. You should consult a rheumatologist for treatment. To confirm the diagnosis, the specialist will prescribe an x-ray of the joints, as well as a general blood test. Arthroscopy can be used as a therapeutic method, but in general, for arthritis, treatment should be comprehensive - medications, physiotherapy, diet, etc.

        A sign of thrombophlebitis is constant throbbing pain in the calf muscles. In this case, redness and swelling may be observed, a burning sensation is felt in the calves, the veins in the legs become denser, and touching them is painful.

        Treatment. A specialist vascular surgeon must determine how severely the veins are clogged and assess the risk of a blood clot breaking off. To do this, an angioscan is performed and a blood test is taken. Based on the results of the procedures, therapy itself is prescribed. Treatment is often carried out on an outpatient basis.

        Osteoporosis is a disease caused by calcium deficiency in the body. This is indicated by leg cramps and severe pain in the calves. At risk are women over 40 years of age, especially those with fair hair and blue eyes.

        Treatment. Bone density can be determined by a study called densitometry. Based on its results, special calcium preparations are prescribed.

        Lumbosacral osteochondrosis

        This disease is characterized by “shooting” pain in the legs, which intensifies with sudden movements. What is symptomatic is that rest does not help, the pain does not go away.

        Treatment. For help, you need to contact a neurologist or spine surgeon. Data analysis includes magnetic resonance imaging. Based on its results, the doctor decides whether to prescribe conservative treatment or whether surgery will be more effective.

        With diabetes mellitus, leg cramps (often at night), swelling, weakness, tingling, goosebumps, or numbness occur in the legs. In the area of ​​the legs, itching and flaking are felt, and the skin becomes dry.

        Treatment. Treatment for diabetes mellitus is prescribed based on the results of a blood test.

        A sign of gout is acute throbbing pain in the big toe. At the same time, the finger becomes very sensitive, swells, turns red, and has a fever.

        Treatment. At the initial stage of the disease, a diet that limits alcohol, meat and fish snacks, spices, mushrooms, legumes, tomatoes, coffee, cocoa, and chocolate is effective. As a medical treatment, the rheumatologist prescribes a course of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.

        With flat feet, fatigue quickly occurs while walking. My feet and legs hurt, and the pain increases in the evening.

        Treatment. If you have flat feet, narrow shoes and high heels are contraindicated. The orthopedist will prescribe stinators and special exercises.
