Foot Injuries
Trauma is the leading cause of injury in the young. Twisting injuries can lead to metatarsal or ankle fractures. Sometimes the ligaments that connect the bones are stretched or torn causing a sprain.
Repetitive Use is a common cause of injury. People whose occupation requires a lot of standing or walking are at risk for foot injuries such as plantar fasciitis and tendonitis or a stress fracture.
Sports Medicine is practiced on athletes who get injured in endurance sports such as running, or sports that require sudden changes of direction such as soccer or football, or jumping such as basketball or volleyball.
Degenerative Issues affect bones, joints, tendons, and sometimes ligaments. Arthritis often affects the great toe joint, making it stiff and enlarged. Tendons can become thickened and weaker, causing more stress on the foot structure.
