Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome: Causes, Symptoms, and Treatment for Foot Pain

Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome is a condition caused by compression of the Posterior Tibial Nerve, the largest nerve in the foot, as it passes through the Tarsal Tunnel near the ankle. When pressure is applied to this nerve, it can lead to pain, numbness, tingling, or burning sensations, particularly in the following areas:

  • Bottom of the foot

  • Outside of the foot

  • Toes (often mimicking a neuroma)

If you are experiencing foot pain, it’s essential to address it as soon as possible. Our specialists can help identify the cause of your symptoms and provide effective treatment options.

What is Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome?

Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome is commonly linked to flat feet, fallen arches, and abnormal foot mechanics. The condition often worsens over time, especially for individuals aged 30-40 and older. Other factors that can lead to compression of the Posterior Tibial Nerve include:

  • Soft tissue masses, such as ganglions, fibromas, or lipomas

  • The formation of varicose veins around the nerve

The primary cause of Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome is abnormal function in the Subtalar Joint, located just below the ankle. This joint controls foot motion, and when it doesn’t function properly, it can cause the foot’s arch to flatten, resulting in excessive over-pronation. While pronation is a natural movement, over-pronating too much can lead to Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome and other foot problems.
