Orthopedic and sports injury bracing has been around for a long
time. Along with various types of tendonitis, sprains and strains
are the most common orthopedic injuries. Tendonitis occurs from overuse
or improper motion that causes swelling of the tendons - the tissue that
connects the muscle to the bone. Sprains and strains, however, generally
occur from a single incident causing tissue trauma to the muscles or ligaments.
Over
the course of a lifetime, most people will experience some type of foot
problem. It may be as simple as a blister or callus, or something
complicated enough to require hospitalization. But the majority of foot
problems, although they can be serious in degree, are relatively routine
in nature.
