General Practitioners

• Arthritis
  Rheumatoid Arthritis is a disease in which your own immune system destroys cartilage surrounding the joints. As the cartilage deteriorates, the bones begin to rub together causing the surrounding tissues to become inflamed. This can become increasingly painful over time.
• Plantar Fasciitis
  Plantar fasciitis is common in runners and anyone who is on their feet for long periods of time. People who are overweight, women who are pregnant, and those who wear shoes that lack arch support are also at risk for developing plantar fasciitis.
• Primary Care
  Although your primary care physician may be able to diagnose and treat a problem with your foot, ankle, or lower leg, it is often wise to speak with a skilled podiatrist about your issues. Many podiatric health conditions have similar symptoms as other conditions and can be easily misdiagnosed.

• Calluses
  Heel fissures, or cracked skin on your heels, can be a source of discomfort and self-consciousness. Heel fissures often develop when calluses are already present on the outer edge of your heel, as this skin is usually hard and dry, making it more prone to cracking.
• Eczema
• Psoriasis

Physical Therapists

• Physical Therapy
  Pain can be managed with over-the-counter medications. If the soreness and pain persists for several days, it is best to see a foot doctor. Dr. Little may recommend anything from physical therapy and stretching to the use of orthotics.
• Flatfoot Correction
• Heel Pain
• Ankle Sprain
  Because it can be easy to mistake an ankle fracture for an ankle sprain, a physician should evaluate every ankle injury. Quick and accurate diagnosis of an ankle fracture is necessary to ensure proper healing of the joint.
• Orthotics and Prosthetic Therapy
  Treatment for high arches will vary depending on the severity of the condition and whether it interferes with normal activities. Orthotic therapy is usually very effective for anyone with high arches. Corrective shoes can reduce pressure on the arch and relieve any pain or soreness. Proper fitting of all footwear is critical.

Podiatrists

• General Podiatry
  Podiatry is the diagnosis and treatment of injuries, diseases, and other medical conditions of the feet, ankles, and lower legs. Because many ailments and diseases that affect this area of the body have similar symptoms, it is important to work with an expert in podiatry. A podiatrist's main focus is the health of your feet, ankles, and lower legs, allowing for a thorough diagnostic screening and comprehensive treatment.
• Achilles Tendonitis
  Achilles tendinitis is inflammation of the Achilles tendon, the fibrous tissue that connects the heel to the calf muscles. This condition is often caused by irritation of the tendon and typically affects those who play sports. However, older individuals who suffer from arthritis may also be affected. Achilles tendinitis is typically the first stage of an Achilles tendon injury and should be treated right away. Without treatment, the tendon can tear or rupture, which may require surgery.
• Ankle Instability
  One of the more distressing symptoms of chronic lateral ankle pain is a constant feeling of ankle instability. People with chronic lateral ankle pain often have difficulty walking in high heels or on uneven ground and are prone to repeat ankle injuries.
• Ankle Sprain
  Chronic lateral ankle pain is a condition in which you experience a recurring pain concentrated on the outside (lateral) part of the ankle. A condition common to athletes, this type of long-term discomfort is related to frequent ankle injuries and often follows a serious sprain or fracture.
• Bunions Problems
• Calluses
• Flat Feet
  Pes planus, normally referred to as flat feet, is a common foot type variation that most people experience no pain or problems with. However, because flat feet can affect the body's alignment, the condition can eventually contribute to or exacerbate other foot problems.
• Heel Spurs
  Individuals who have flat feet or unusually high arches are most likely to develop a heel spur due to the structure of their feet. Women are also more susceptible to the condition since they frequently wear heels and other high-arched shoes.
• Heel Pain
• Foot Pain
• Metatarsalgia
  Metatarsalgia is a term used to describe pain and inflammation in the metatarsal region of the foot, or the "ball" of the foot. This type of pain is common among active individuals and tends to affect people who wear ill-fitting footwear on a daily basis.
• Plantar Fasciitis
  Plantar fasciitis, a condition caused by inflammation of the thick band of tissue that runs across the bottom of the foot.
