How does calf overload occur?

The most common cause is an unbalanced stride. Overuse of the calves is common in both athletes and middle-aged people, especially men. This pathology usually manifests itself as pain in the muscle mass of the calves, although it can also be felt in the back of the heel. An incorrect stride is a crucial factor in the appearance of this type of injury.

The function of these muscles, the gastrocnemius and soleus, is to extend or plantar flexion the ankle, which is necessary in the take-off or push-off phase that we need to move forward when walking, jumping or running. It is important to analyse your stride or even your posture, because if your centre of gravity is forward, the demand and contraction of these muscles will be greater and can cause this overload.

Ask for a first appointment.

It is important to be assessed by a specialist podiatrist. At Clínica Poyatos we have been treating these pathologies in Malaga for over 60 years.
