Is taping the sesamoids good or bad for swelling?
About this episode
I was recently working with a runner who had really bad sesamoid issues.
She was taping it to try to decrease some of the motion around the big toe joint that could have been irritating the sesamoid bones.
She had a bunch of tape around the forefoot holding everything still. Weird thing was, she did not have swelling there. She had swelling elsewhere.
Is taping the sesamoids good or bad if you have swelling in the foot?
Well, that is a great question and that is what we're talking about today on the Doc On The Run Podcast.
