The Foot’s Remarkable Design

Few parts of the body work harder than your feet. It’s a finely tuned system comprising 26 bones, 30+ joints, and over 100 muscles, tendons, and ligaments working in unison to support your every move.

This intricate system includes three primary sections:

  • Forefoot: Toes and metatarsals.
  • Midfoot: The arches and connecting ligaments.
  • Hindfoot: Your heel and ankle.

Your feet absorb impact, adapt to terrain, and provide stable, powerful movement. Our team deeply understands this anatomy and uses that knowledge to treat the root of your pain with precision and care.

Know When to Take Action

Pain is your body’s signal that something needs attention. Look out for:

  • Ongoing or worsening foot pain
  • Swelling or bruising that doesn’t improve
  • Limited range of motion in your foot or toes
  • Visible deformity or change in alignment
  • Feeling unsteady or unstable while walking
  • Numbness or tingling sensations
  • Chronic wounds, especially if you have diabetes
  • Pain when bearing weight
  • Little or no progress with rest or rehab
  • Repeated injuries in the same spot

The sooner you seek care, the faster you can heal and return to life without limits.

Sprains, Strains & Fractures

Some of the most common foot injuries we treat are sprains, strains, and fractures. Sprains stretch or tear the ligaments that support your joints, while strains impact the muscles and tendons that help you move. Sudden motions, poor landings, or high-impact activity are common causes. Fractures, whether from trauma or repeated stress, often occur alongside soft tissue injuries and are more likely if you have conditions like osteoporosis.

Achilles Tendonitis or Rupture: Overuse or tearing of the Achilles tendon.
Metatarsalgia: Pain centered in the ball of the foot.
Arthritis: Degeneration of cartilage, causing stiffness and pain.

When is foot surgery appropriate?

Surgical intervention is considered when non-invasive methods like physical therapy, orthotics, or anti-inflammatory treatments have not provided sufficient relief or restored full mobility.

Will I require mobility aids post-surgery?

Depending on the surgical approach, you may need to wear a cast or boot or use assistive devices like crutches or a knee scooter to protect your foot during healing.

Is pain common after foot surgery?

You’ll be under anesthesia during surgery, and we’ll use a tailored post-operative plan—including medications, ice, and elevation—to control discomfort. Some pain and swelling are expected but typically manageable.

What risks should I be aware of?

Risks include infection, nerve irritation, blood clots, or delayed healing. Our team takes every step to minimize complications and will ensure you're fully informed before your procedure.

How soon can I walk again?

Some procedures allow limited walking in a boot shortly after surgery. Others require a non-weight-bearing period. Your recovery plan will reflect your specific procedure and healing progress.
