Foot Surgery in Brooklyn

Foot Anatomy Basics

Engineered for performance, each foot contains 26 bones, over 100 supporting soft tissues, and more than 30 joints. These elements are organized into three structural zones:

Forefoot: The toes and metatarsals that initiate movement.
Midfoot: The arched bridge built for shock absorption.
Hindfoot: The heel and ankle complex that provides propulsion and balance.

This complex system allows for agility, endurance, and resilience under pressure.

Sprains, Strains, & Fractures

While your feet are designed for resilience, they’re not immune to injury, particularly during high-impact activities or sudden falls. Sprains involve overstretched or torn ligaments, and strains affect muscles and tendons due to abrupt or excessive movement. When these soft tissue injuries are severe, tears or fractures may also occur. Foot fractures may result from acute trauma, twisting forces, or repetitive stress and are more common in individuals with osteoporosis or reduced bone density.
