About Foot and Ankle
Each of your feet has 26 bones, 30 joints, and more than 100 muscles, ligaments, and tendons. Your ankle consists of the ends of your tibia and fibula, and talus. The talus sits on top of your calcaneus (heel bone). The subtalar joint and the true ankle joint facilitate your ability to bend and extend your foot.
Your feet and ankles absorb force with every step you take. With so many delicate, moving parts and near-constant force, it’s no wonder that your feet and ankles are vulnerable to so many potential injuries and degenerative conditions.
Common Problems
Achilles Tendonitis
Your Achilles tendon is a strong band of tissue that connects your calf muscle to the back of the leg on the heel bone.
The Achilles tendon can be damaged or injured in both acute injuries and by repetitive strain. The severity of the injury can vary and range from inflammation to a tear in the ligament.
Bunions
Bunions, also known as Hallux Valgus deformity, develop when your big toe leans toward the other toes, pushing the joint between your toe and the rest of the foot outward. The abnormal pressure on the joint eventually leads to bone spur development.
A bony bump forms on the joint, causing pain that becomes more severe when you walk or put weight on your foot. Bunions may be caused by repetitive actions, arthritis, and poorly fitting shoes.
Foot & Ankle Arthritis
Early diagnosis of foot and ankle arthritis can ensure effective treatment and pain reduction. Please make an appointment with a foot and ankle specialist as soon as you experience discomfort.
Foot & Ankle Fracture
A foot and ankle fracture, more commonly referred to as a broken foot or ankle, is a fracture of one or more bones that make up the ankle joint. Foot and ankle fractures often occur during falls or automobile accidents.
Your risk of breaking a foot and ankle increases if you participate in high-impact sports, suddenly increase your activity levels, or have osteoporosis.
Plantar Fasciitis
Plantar fasciitis is a painful condition caused by inflammation of the thick band of tissue at the bottom of the foot, known as the plantar fascia. Plantar fasciitis often results from overuse and is especially common in athletes due to repetitive strains on the tissue.
Over time, the fascia becomes inflamed due to repeat tearing and stretching. Other risk factors for plantar fasciitis include having a high arch in the foot, obesity, and tight calf muscles.
