Our feet do our heavy lifting. They’re our connection to the earth, and they move us through our lives. Because they bear the brunt of our physical stress, our feet and ankles are prone to a variety of injuries that seem to stop life right in its tracks.

Ankle Pain
Ankle Sprain – A fall, a twist, or a blow can all be the culprits of a sprained ankle, which involves an injury to the ligaments that connect bones and joints. An untreated sprain could lead to chronic ankle instability or even a fracture.

Heel Pain
Plantar Fasciitis – Plantar fasciitis can cause intense heel pain due to an inflammation of a band of tissue that stretches from the heel to the toe. The pain usually affects most areas of the foot and increases as the condition progresses, causing speedy diagnosis and treatment to be a necessity.
Toe Pain

Toe Pain
Also known as Hammertoe. An imbalance between muscles and tendons can cause toes to restrict, resulting in hammertoes. Irritation, corns, and difficulty wearing shoes make hammertoes an uncomfortable condition. Surgery could be needed to correct the toes if non-surgical options don’t work.
Arch Pain

Arch Pain
Cavus Foot (High-Arched Foot) – A high arch is often caused by a neurological disorder, so accurate diagnosis is essential. People with very high arches are at a higher risk for hammertoe, calluses, pain, and instability.
