• Warts
• Arthritis
  Arthritis - Symptoms include joint stiffness, pain or tenderness that persists two weeks or more. The cartilage protecting the joint is eroding and pain is caused by bone rubbing against bone.  Rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis are the two most common forms of the disease; though more than 100 varieties exist.
• Plantar Fasciitis
  Heel Pain ( Plantar Fasciitis ) - Irritation of the ligament situated along the bottom of the foot and attaching to the heel. Usually causes pain upon waking in the morning. Prolonged inflammation can cause bone spurs to develop.

Surgeons

• Bunion Surgery
  Bunions may be common but the discomfort they cause can bring on uncommon misery. Doctors of podiatric medicine can provide complete information on effective bunion surgery procedures.
• Joint Replacement
  The treatment plan selected by a doctor of podiatric medicine varies with the age and health of the patient, as well as with the severity of the deformity. Conservative treatment measures may consist of shoes with adequate size to accommodate the bunion, or pads and custom molded shoes. Surgical corrections vary from simply removing the bony prominence to more extensive procedures, such as fusion of joints and joint replacement. Most patients are back into tennis shoes in two to four weeks following surgery. Be aware that laser surgery is not an option for bunion treatment. At this time, no laser exists which can cut bone safely.
• Bunions
  Bunions are not caused by improper shoe gear, but are significantly aggravated by improper fitting shoes that place an unusual degree of pressure at the bunion joint. As bunions become more severe the joint moves out of proper alignment and eventually arthritis damages the joint space. The large toe moves sideways towards the 2nd toe and foot tends to widen across the metatarsal area.
• Gangrene
  Because the body's ability to fight infections is diminished, they can fester and degrade into a serious condition like gangrene, which could lead to amputation.
• Ingrown Toenails
  How about ingrown toenails? Are they present, along with corns or calluses or warts on his or her toes, or on the tops of bottoms of the feet? When your child walks, does he or she walk on the inside or outside of his or her toes?

Dermatologists

• Corns
  In an aging body, toenails begin to thicken causing more difficulty. For some, trimming the toenails straight across is recommended. Corns and calluses, which plague the feet of active seniors, must be care for by a professional
• Frostbite
  Neuropathy - Loss of sensation of pain, heat and cold in feet. Frostbite is a common cause of this condition; neuropathy can lead to serious infection if left untreated.
• Ulcer
• Calluses
  Calluses - Thickened, irritated dead skin, usually found on the heel or ball of the foot. In diabetics and other individuals with poor circulation, the skin can become ulcerated and infected.
• Fungus

Physical Therapists

• Physical Therapy
  With x-rays, a podiatrist can identify the condition and prescribe anti-inflammatory medication, physical therapy, or orthotic shoe inserts to relieve stress and correct biomechanical problems.
• Flatfoot Correction
• Heel Pain
• Ankle Sprain
• Back Pain
• Orthotics and Prosthetic Therapy

Podiatrists

• General Podiatry
  Dr Sally graduated from The Ohio College of Podiatric Medicine in 1981 and did his residency with OCPM and Dr Marvin Arnold  and the Huron Road Hospital  in Cleveland, Ohio.
• Achilles Tendonitis
  Achilles Tendonitis - This is a painful inflammation of the Achilles Tendon (which connects the calf muscle to the heel), commonly found among females who wear high heels.
• Ankle Sprain
  Accidents of this type happen every day. Broken bones, dislocations, sprains, contusions, infections, and other serious injuries can occur at any time. And when a foot or ankle injury does happen, it is critical that you seek immediate medical treatment. Probably the most important rule to follow in preventing foot and ankle injuries is not to take your feet for granted. By simply keeping them healthy, following safe work practices, and wearing the appropriate shoes for your job or sports activity, you will ensure the ability to use your feet with ease and comfort for a long, long time.
• Bunions Problems
  Bunions develop from a weakness in the bone structure of your foot. Because of the instability of the bones and ligaments that form to various joints and arches in your foot, the joints have a tendency to move out of proper alignment.
• Calluses
• Diabetic Foot Care
• Flat Feet
  Fallen Arches (a.k.a. flat feet) - Low or non-existent arches can lead to further disability with advancing age and inactivity.
• Hammertoes
  Hammer Toe - A tightening of ligaments and tendons causing the toe joints to buckle, forcing the toe upward and leading to shoe abrasion, inflammation, bursitis, corns and calluses.
• Heel Spurs
  Surgical removal of the heel spurs is rarely required. But if surgery is the best option in your case, it can be performed in the office or in a hospital.
• Heel Pain
• Foot Pain
• Ingrown Toenails
  When you can't feel pain, heat or cold in the feet, injuries go unnoticed. Neuropathic feet also have less blood flowing to naturally fight the infections that come with usually inconsequential wounds like punctures, scratches, or even ingrown toenails.
• Metatarsalgia
• Foot Orthotics
  Functional foot orthotics are made from neutral foot position castings.  The practitioner then sends the casts and clinical information to an orthotics lab.  The technician reviews the cast and prescription.  The orthotics are then fabricated and dispensed to the patient.  They usually require a gradual break in period of two to four weeks. After which time the patient is wearing them daily, depending on the problem, the diagnosis and how your foot responds to orthotic control.
• Plantar Fasciitis
  Most heel pain involves a membrane surrounding the heel bone that anchors a long band of connective tissue, called the plantar fascia, which stops at the ball of the foot. When the fascia is stretched too far, the tissue tears and inflames, creating a condition known as plantar fasciitis.
• Podiatric Deformities
  Neuropathy causes reduced sensation, leading unnoticed symptoms and possible delays in treatment of infection, ulceration, and progressive foot deformities.
