The foot is one section of the human body that is constantly being worked and under stress. It is this constant stress that leads to their being a higher likelihood of an injury occuring to this region of the body. When all parts of the foot are functioning correctly the foot is less likely to be injured but when just one part is damaged, there can be lingering effects across the entire foot. The anatomy of the foot is very complex and important to understand to help prevent some of these injuries from occuring in the first place.
