  1. Which Foot Condition Needs a Foot Doctor or Podiatrist? PRESENTED BY: VALLEY FOOT & ANKLE CENTER

  2. At Valley Foot & Ankle Center, we understand the importance of healthy, pain- free feet. Your feet are your foundation, and when they're not at their best, it can affect your overall quality of life. But how do you know when to see a foot doctor or podiatrist? This informative guide will help you recognize common foot conditions that may require professional care at Valley Foot & Ankle Center.

  3. Common Foot Conditions: Plantar Fasciitis You may have plantar fasciitis if you experience severe, stabbing, prickling discomfort in your foot's arch or at the heel. This condition can make walking or even standing unbearable. Our experienced podiatrists at Valley Foot & Ankle Center can assess your situation and provide tailored treatment options, from custom orthotics to physical therapy. Bunions Bunions are painful bony protrusions that typically form at the base of the big toe. Genetics, ill-fitting shoes, or abnormal foot mechanics can cause them. Our skilled podiatrists can offer surgical and non- surgical solutions to alleviate bunion pain and restore your foot's natural alignment.

  4. Ingrown Toenails Ingrown toenails occur when the edge of the toenail grows into the surrounding skin. This painful condition can lead to infection if left untreated. Our podiatrists can safely and effectively treat ingrown toenails, preventing complications and offering long-term solutions. Diabetic Foot Care Diabetes can cause foot complications such as neuropathy, ulcers, and poor circulation. At Valley Foot & Ankle Center, our specialists are well-versed in diabetic foot care, providing education, prevention, and treatment to ensure your feet remain healthy and complication-free.

  5. Sports Injuries Athletes often experience foot and ankle injuries. Whether you have a sprain, stress fracture, or Achilles tendonitis, our Valley Foot & Ankle Center team can help you get back in the game. We offer advanced sports medicine treatments to speed your recovery and prevent re-injury. Heel Spurs Heel spurs are calcium deposits that can cause intense heel pain. Our expert podiatrists can diagnose and treat heel spurs with various approaches, including stretching exercises, anti-inflammatory medications, and, in severe cases, surgical intervention.

  6. Hammertoes Hammertoes result from muscle and ligament imbalances in the toe, causing it to become bent. If you notice deformities in your toes, our specialists can assess the severity of the condition and provide customized treatment plans, which may include orthotics, splints, or surgery. Fungal Infections Fungal infections can affect the toenails and skin, leading to discoloration, pain, and discomfort. Our Valley Foot & Ankle Center team offers effective treatments to eliminate fungal infections and restore your foot's health.

  7. Corns and Calluses Skin layers thickened due to pressure and friction are called corns and calluses. Our podiatrists can safely remove these skin issues and guide us in preventing their recurrence.
