Foot & Ankle

Foot and ankle pain can make even the simplest daily activities feel like a challenge. Whether it is discomfort while walking, swelling, or reduced range of motion, these symptoms can interfere with your ability to stay active and independent. Seeing a specialist who understands the unique structure of the lower leg is the first step toward lasting relief and improved mobility.

Foot Injuries & Conditions

Plantar Fasciitis

Inflammation of the plantar fascia (a thick band of tissue along the bottom of the foot), causing heel pain, especially in the morning.

Heel Spur

A bony growth on the underside of the heel bone, often associated with plantar fasciitis.

Flatfoot (Pes Planus)

A condition where the arch of the foot collapses, leading to a flat appearance and possible pain or fatigue in the feet and legs.

Metatarsalgia

Pain and inflammation in the ball of the foot, typically caused by overuse or improper footwear.

Morton’s Neuroma

A thickening of nerve tissue between the toes (often the 3rd and 4th), causing sharp, burning pain or numbness.

Bunions (Hallux Valgus)

A bony bump at the base of the big toe that forms when the toe pushes inward, often leading to pain and difficulty with shoes.

Hammer Toe

A deformity where a toe bends downward at the middle joint, often due to muscle imbalance or tight footwear.

Stress Fractures

Small, hairline cracks in bones of the foot (commonly metatarsals), caused by repetitive stress or overuse.

Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome

Compression of the posterior tibial nerve as it passes through the tarsal tunnel near the ankle, leading to tingling, burning, or numbness in the foot.

Ankle Injuries & Conditions

Ankle Sprain

Stretching or tearing of ligaments around the ankle, most often from rolling or twisting the joint. Graded I–III based on severity.

Achilles Tendinitis

Inflammation of the Achilles tendon (at the back of the ankle), often due to overuse, tight calf muscles, or improper footwear.

Achilles Tendon Rupture

A complete tear of the Achilles tendon, often felt as a sudden “pop” followed by difficulty walking or standing on tiptoe.

Ankle Fracture

A break in one or more of the bones that form the ankle joint (tibia, fibula, talus), usually from trauma or falls.

High Ankle Sprain (Syndesmotic Sprain)

Injury to the ligaments that connect the two bones of the lower leg (tibia and fibula), usually from twisting injuries.

Peroneal Tendon Injuries

Inflammation or tearing of the peroneal tendons, which run along the outside of the ankle, causing pain and instability.

Posterior Tibial Tendon Dysfunction (PTTD)

A condition where the posterior tibial tendon becomes inflamed or torn, often leading to flatfoot and progressive pain.
