Conditions: Foot & Ankle
Every foot and ankle condition presents a unique set of challenges and requires a comprehensive plan of care. Whether you have a sports related injury from overuse or sudden turning of the foot such as an Ankle Sprain, a Stress Fracture or an injury to the Achilles Tendon, all of these can be treated efficiently by a member of our OCF staff to get you active and back on your feet again.
Other foot conditions commonly found in women are Bunions and Hammer Toes that can be caused over time by wearing high heels and shoes with narrow toe boxes that force the toe to bend in an abnormal position. Plantar Fascitis is another common foot condition caused by repetitive stress or excessive tension on the plantar fascia. People with diabetes should be aware of the Diabetic Foot condition which is a dangerous loss of sensation in the feet caused by damage to the nervous system caused by diabetes. Preventative care includes scheduling regular foot exams with our Bonita Springs and Fort Myers foot doctors and maintaining a proper diet, exercise, medication and the proper footwear.
