Common Foot Pain Conditions We Treat:
Our team of experienced healthcare professionals specializes in treating a wide range of foot pain conditions, including:
Plantar fasciitis: This common condition causes inflammation in the plantar fascia, a band of tissue running along the bottom of your foot. It typically presents as a sharp stabbing pain in the heel, especially when taking your first steps in the morning.
Ball of foot pain: Pain in the ball of your foot can have various causes, including Metatarsalgia (inflammation of the long bones in the forefoot) and Morton's neuroma (a benign growth of nerve tissue). These conditions can cause a burning, aching, or numbing sensation.
Toe pain: From ingrown toenails and bunions to hammertoes and arthritis, various issues can cause toe pain. Symptoms may include throbbing, redness, swelling, and difficulty wearing shoes.
Tingling feet: Tingling or numbness in the feet can be caused by nerve compression, diabetes, or vitamin deficiencies. It's essential to seek professional evaluation to determine the underlying cause.
Back of heel pain: Pain in the back of the heel can be a sign of Haglund's Deformity (bony bump) or Achilles tendonitis (inflammation of the tendon connecting your calf muscle to your heel bone). Both conditions can cause pain and stiffness, making walking difficult.
Sore feet: General soreness and achiness in your feet can be caused by overuse, improper footwear, or certain medical conditions.
