Foot
As the region’s most preferred orthopedic practice, OrthoArizona has a team of foot doctors who are exceptional experts and leaders in diagnosing and treating foot injuries and conditions.
Foot pain is a frequent occurrence, impacting people of all ages and activity levels. While some discomfort may resolve on its own, persistent or worsening pain can signal a more significant underlying condition. Early diagnosis and intervention are crucial for effective treatment and preventing future complications. Consulting a foot specialist allows for a comprehensive evaluation to pinpoint the source of your pain. This could range from sports injuries or accidents to degenerative processes that develop over time.
No matter the type of foot-related pain, it is important to seek medical care from a professional who can accurately diagnose the foot injury or condition and offer treatment options to provide pain relief to return to a healthy and active lifestyle.
When Is It Time to Seek Care From an Expert?
Understanding when to seek an expert is a hard thing to do on your own. You should schedule an appointment if you or a loved one notices any of the following symptoms:
- Aches or weakness in your foot
- Increased foot pain or discomfort while standing or walking
- Persistent foot pain
- Loss of control over foot movements
- Swelling or bruising around the foot
- Discomfort following twisting or physical exertion
- Pain, tingling, or numbness extending from your foot to your toes
When choosing the the right doctor to treat your injury or condition, there are several factors to consider, such as professional training and level of expertise. Our foot doctors are experts with extensive specialty training and experience. They can locate the source of these symptoms and determine if it is an indication of a serious injury or condition. The most common conditions our foot specialists treat are:
- Bunions
- Foot fractures
- Flat feet in children
- Heel spurs
- Ligament injuries
- Plantar fasciitis
- Sprains and strains
Our foot doctors prioritize using conservative approaches to treatment for your foot injury or condition. In some instances, nonsurgical methods do not provide adequate pain relief and surgery is necessary to help restore your health. If a surgical approach is required, our foot specialists will work with you to determine what procedure is best for your needs.
