EXPERT CARE FROM AN EXPERT FOOT DOCTOR | DENVER
What We Treat & How We Help
Foot and ankle problems can result from injury, overuse, structural imbalances, or infection. Here are some of the most common conditions we diagnose and treat:
- Achilles Tendinitis: Inflammation of the Achilles tendon, usually from overuse, causing stiffness, swelling, and pain at the back of the heel.
- Ankle Sprain: A stretched or torn ligament around the ankle joint that causes instability and swelling, often from sudden twists or falls.
- Athlete’s Foot: A contagious fungal infection that causes itching, burning, and flaking skin, typically between the toes or on the soles.
- Broken Toe/Broken Foot: Fractures caused by trauma or stress that lead to pain, bruising, swelling, and difficulty bearing weight.
- Bunions: A bony bump at the base of the big toe that can lead to pain, swelling, and difficulty finding comfortable shoes.
- Corns and Calluses: Thickened areas of skin that develop from friction or pressure, often causing discomfort or sensitivity.
- Foot Drop: A condition in which lifting the front of the foot is difficult, often linked to nerve injury or neurological disorders.
- Flat Feet: A lack of arch support that can contribute to fatigue, pain, or secondary alignment issues in the legs and back.
- Hammertoes: A deformity where toes bend at the middle joint, often leading to pain, corns, or difficulty with footwear.
- Neuromas: Thickened, irritated nerve tissue, usually between the toes, causing burning pain or numbness.
- Plantar Fasciitis: The most common cause of heel pain, caused by inflammation of the thick ligament connecting your heel to your toes.
- Sever’s Disease: An overuse injury in children that causes inflammation at the growth plate of the heel.
- Turf Toe: A sprain of the big toe joint, often caused by hyperextension during athletic activity.
- Warts: Growths caused by viruses that can appear anywhere on the foot, often on the weight-bearing areas like the heel or ball of the foot.
- Wounds: Any cuts, scrapes, or punctures on the foot can lead to infection if not properly treated and cared for.
Every condition we treat is approached with individualized care. Our goal is to relieve pain, improve function, and prevent recurrence through conservative therapy whenever possible.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best achilles tendinitis treatment?
Achilles tendinitis is typically treated with a combination of rest, stretching, and physical therapy. At Podiatry Associates, Inc., we may also recommend custom orthotics, MLS laser therapy, or supportive footwear to reduce strain on the tendon. Severe or chronic cases may require more advanced interventions, but we always start with conservative care.
How do you treat an ankle sprain?
Ankle sprain treatment depends on the severity of the injury. Mild sprains often respond well to rest, ice, compression, and elevation (RICE), along with bracing and physical therapy . For more severe sprains, our podiatrists may use diagnostic imaging to assess ligament damage and create a personalized rehab plan that restores stability and prevents long-term weakness or reinjury.
What are my options for bunions treatment?
We offer both surgical and non-surgical bunions treatment. Early-stage bunions can often be managed with orthotics , shoe changes, and padding. If the bunion becomes painful, progressive, or interferes with daily activities, surgical correction may be recommended to realign the joint and relieve pressure.
Can flat feet be treated without surgery?
Yes; most flat feet treatment options are conservative. These include custom orthotics, physical therapy, supportive footwear, and lifestyle adjustments to reduce strain. Only in rare cases where conservative treatment fails, and pain or deformity worsens, might surgery be considered.
How do I know if I need foot injury treatment?
Any foot injury that causes persistent pain, swelling, bruising, or difficulty bearing weight should be evaluated. Foot injury treatment may include diagnostic imaging, immobilization, MLS laser therapy, or physical therapy. Early treatment can prevent complications and promote faster recovery.
What is the most effective wart treatment for feet?
Our podiatrists use a range of wart treatment methods depending on the severity and location of the wart. Options include topical medications, cryotherapy (freezing), and minor in-office procedures.
