Many people put off going to the podiatrist and assume that their foot or ankle pain will go away on its own. While this may be true sometimes, it’s critical to see a doctor to ensure you don’t have a serious condition that requires surgery. If your pain doesn’t resolve within a few days, don’t ignore it! Schedule an appointment with our podiatrist for an evaluation.

Some foot conditions that may require surgery include:

After Surgery

No matter what type of surgery you undergo, it’s important to rest and elevate your foot after you return home. Make sure you have a comfortable place to relax following your surgery. You can ice your foot to reduce swelling and take ibuprofen to relieve pain. Our podiatrist may also provide a boot or walking cast to support your foot and ankle while you heal.
