- Achilles Tendinitis: Inflammation of the Achilles tendon, connecting the calf to the heel, causing pain and stiffness in the back of the leg .
- Ankle Sprains: Ligament stretches or tears, often from twisting or rolling the ankle, resulting in pain, swelling, and instability.
- Arthritis: Degeneration in foot or ankle joints, leading to stiffness, swelling, and discomfort.
- Bunions: Bony bumps at the base of the big toe, often due to improper footwear, causing pain and challenges with shoes.
