What kind of anesthesia do they use for ankle surgery?
Sorry to hear that.If this is a case where fixation will be required-most likely you would require general anesthesia.Local with a twilight anesthsia could be used if no pins and screws were required but most likely you would receive the general anesthesia Good luck! READ MORE
Toenail problems?
This looks like a classic case of a fungus nail. The nail looks like it may have been traumatized in some way or possibly a result of a constrictive shoe, which could affect the nail and cause the fungus to grow from that area. Your podiatrist could culture a piece of the nail to confirm the fungus and then treat the fungus or remove the nail and start with a topical or oral antifungal. Just remember, it is a skin condition and is mainly limited to the toenail area, which is mostly a benign condition, but there are cases of malignancy, which is rare, but it is good to see your podiatrist so he can evaluate the situation.

Is going barefoot good for bunions?
Bunions are bones that have shifted due to genetics, shoe gear, or both. Any kind of constrictive shoe will aggravate them, but can't walk around barefoot all day. Need to find comfortable shoes or consult your podiatrist about possibly having them surgically corrected. But only do that if they are painful...cosmetic foot surgery can be a disaster! READ MORE
Do podiatrists treat ingrown toenails?
Yes. That's our bread and butter. Don't fear, the podiatrist is there for your ingrowns. READ MORE
Is a walking boot better than a cast?
It depends on the reason. There are situations where the walking boot is beneficial and sometimes it's not enough. It's up to your podiatrist to make the call. READ MORE
Foot pain?
When a patient tells me of tightness, especially in the evening, I always am concerned about the patient's circulation. It could be many other things, but I would start with an arterial ultrasound doppler to check for blood flow to the lower extremities. READ MORE
Can you walk after ankle surgery?
It totally depends on the procedure. If it is soft tissue like tendon repair or ligament damage, you can be ambulatory with a surgical boot. If it is more serious surgery consisting of bone repair like an ankle fusion, it's 8-10 weeks of non-weight bearing wearing a cast. READ MORE
Do podiatrists treat toenail fungus?
Sure we do. It is a large part of most podiatry practices. There are oral, topical, and surgical treatments based on the severity of the condition. READ MORE
How long does it take to realign a sprained ankle?
If you haven't actually destroyed the bony alignment, it takes 2-4 weeks depending on the severity to heal soft tissue damage from an ankle sprain. READ MORE
Does a podiatrist take care of foot deformities?
A podiatrist, depending on his qualifications, will address all ailments, including deformities of the foot. Some podiatrists concentrate on "routine" care-corns,callouses, mycotic nails, while others specialize in correcting serious foot deformities that include major surgical intervention. When you call, ask what they're practice concentrates on treating. Read some of their reviews on the internet, but when you call the office, tell the office your problem and the staff will most likely know if they can be of any assistance. And second opinions on surgical intervention never insult a doctor. If they do, they're not confident on what they're telling you. READ MORE
What are the symptoms of heel bursitis?
Heel bursitis is usually seen in initial phases of weight bearing. When you wake up in the morning, you step down and that is when the pain seems the worse. It is similar pain to heel spurs and plants are faciitis, so initial X-rays are important in initial the evaluation. This condition responds well to anti-inflammatory treatments such as oral NSAIDS or cortisone injections or custom made orthotics. See your podiatrist as soon as possible. READ MORE
Will I need time off work after toenail removal?
If you do not need to wear tight shoes at work or have a job where you're on your feet all day, you could go back to work the next day. Otherwise, you could take a full day off and go back the next day unless the doctor totally screws it up. READ MORE
What kind of foot wear can I wear at home all day?
Having corns and callouses are a result of bone deformities that cannot be "fixed" by just changing shoes. Wearing loose-fitting shoes in the house will reduce the pressure on those areas. Also, corn pads usually have acid in them that should never be used if you're a diabetic and will never fix your problem until the bones causing your problem are addressed. READ MORE
Throbbing pain on the sides of my feet?
This is most likely a biomechanical problem that manifests itself by putting pressure on the outside of your feet. A good podiatrist will evaluate your situation and place you in a corrective device that should help. READ MORE
One toe is freezing and throbbing pain?
Cold is usually related to a nerve situation that usually does not respond to pain medication. But to insure that it is not a vascular situation, consult your podiatrist to make the initial evaluation. READ MORE
How are calluses treated?
Most callouses are the result of pressure on areas that are not used to a lot of wear and tear. Callouses under toes are usually caused by too tight shoes or a contracted toe deformity that you need to see your podiatrist to evaluate with an X-ray and treat accordingly. They can be treated conservatively or sometimes require surgical intervention. READ MORE
What shoes should I wear for hammertoe?
It is true that a hammertoe is a joint contracture that usually occurs at the proximal joint of the second digit that is a genetic condition due to an increased length, even though a hammertoe can occur in any of the digits. Even though surgery is the treatment to correct the pathology, I always recommend shoes with a wide and deep toe box. READ MORE
I have a weird growth on my ankle. What could it be?
There can be a types of soft tissue growths that occur on the tip of the ankle bone the can range from a ganglion to a cyst of some origin.The fact that is on one ankle and not the other warrants at least a xray and possibly a CT scan or MRI to confirm the diagnosis. READ MORE
My grandfather's wound is not healing. What should we do?
Wounds can occur for a number of reasons, most commonly being diabetes and poor circulation. That is why antibiotics are not enough sometimes. If the blood flow is poor or the antibiotics are not for the specific organism, the wound will not heal. READ MORE
My feet sweat a lot. Is that normal or is it a problem?
Sweaty feet is a condition people come in the office with the chief symptoms being constantly wet socks or a horrendous odor. The medical term is hyperhydrosis which can occur at any sweat gland in the body. The feet that are usually covered with socks and shoes plus this condition can produce a brutal odor that can be embarrassing. There are many over-the-counter sprays with drying agents in them, but the prescription ones work the best. Air your feet out and use a powder in your socks is a good starting point. READ MORE
