Foot ailments

Foot and ankle injuries
- Foot and ankle injuries, from toe sprains to foot fractures

Chronic foot conditions
- Nerve disorders, including neuromas
- Skin disorders, such as athlete’s foot, psoriasis, warts, calluses and corns
- Toe joint and toenail problems, like bunions, hammer toes and ingrown toenails
Treatment options vary widely, depending on the nature of the condition. Custom orthotics may relieve foot pain; medications can be used to treat certain skin disorders.
When surgery is required, many procedures benefit from technological advancements, such as endoscopic techniques for plantar fasciitis or neuromas. Procedures that use an endoscope—a thin lighted tube with a small video camera—require smaller incisions and result in a faster recovery. Traditional surgery is also an effective technique for many conditions.
