What You Need To Know About the Services of a Foot Doctor

A foot doctor is known as a podiatrist. Our podiatrist specializes in the diagnosis, treatment, and management of toe, foot, and ankle conditions. These are some of the most common toe, foot, and ankle conditions our podiatrist treats:

Toe conditions include:

• Hammertoes
• Ingrown toenails
• Fungal toenails

Foot conditions include:

• Bunions
• Plantar fasciitis
• Flat feet
• Heel pain
• Achilles tendonitis

Ankle conditions include:

• Lateral ankle instability
• Ankle fractures
• Strained tendons

When you have these conditions, the health of your entire body may be affected. For example:

If you have an infection, such as a fungal infection, the fungus can spread to other parts of your body. Our foot doctor can treat the fungus with laser therapy and other methods, to eliminate the fungus and restore the health of your feet.

If you have lateral ankle instability, it can increase your risk of falling and seriously injuring yourself. Our foot doctor can provide assistive devices to stabilize your ankles, ankle exercises and physical therapy to strengthen your ankles, or in severe cases, surgery to restore your ankle strength.

If you have diabetes, it can cause problems with your circulatory, immune, and nervous systems. Our foot doctor can examine your feet and treat any injuries, cuts, or blisters to prevent infection.

Our foot doctor can provide a wide range of treatments and services including topical and oral medications, orthotics, physical therapy, laser therapy, and much more. When your feet are healthy, it helps you stay healthy too.
