Foot & Ankle Pain

Occasional pain in your feet or ankles seems inevitable when you think about it. Not only do the lower extremities support your entire body weight, but your feet are almost always in use throughout the day. Poorly fitting shoes and prolonged periods of standing are guaranteed to cause you pain – and may also exacerbate an existing foot or ankle condition.

The type of pain you’re experiencing in your feet or ankles will depend on its cause. Your symptoms can range from stiffness, swelling, and tenderness to the complete inability to walk.

When you’re concerned about foot or ankle pain, you’ll want to consult an expert in the field. At the Joint Replacement Institute in Naples, Florida, our ace provider team includes a dedicated, specially trained and experienced podiatrist who wants to get you back to the activities you enjoy.

Common Causes of Foot and Ankle Pain

When you experience pain in your feet, it may be due a wide range of diseases, disorders, and conditions, including:

  • Achilles tendon rupture
  • Achilles tendonitis
  • Ankle sprain and instability
  • Arthritis
  • Athlete’s foot
  • Bunions
  • Bursitis
  • Corns and calluses
  • Diabetic foot
  • Flat foot
  • Fractures and dislocations
  • Fungal infections
  • Gait disorders
  • Gout
  • Hammertoe
  • Heel spurs
  • Infection

  • Ingrown toenails
  • Mallet toe
  • Morton’s neuroma
  • Nerve compression
  • Peripheral Neuropathy
  • Plantar fasciitis
  • Plantar warts
  • Repetitive stress disorders
  • Shin splints
  • Sports injuries
  • Sprains and strains
  • Tarsal tunnel syndrome (TTS)
  • Tendonitis
  • Toenail fungus
  • Turf toe
  • Wounds

Why You Should See a Podiatrist

Podiatry is the field of medicine concerned with disorders of the feet and ankles. Just as you wouldn’t hire an A/C repairman to tile your home, when it comes to your feet, trust the medical professional whose training and experience is entirely focused on issues affecting your feet.

If your foot or ankle pain is persistent or severe, it’s time to see a podiatrist. If you’re not addressing the underlying cause of your foot or ankle pain, you’re not really treating it. At the Joint Replacement Institute, podiatrist Dr. Jaime Weaver can accurately diagnose the root cause of the problem.

Once the cause of your foot or ankle pain is properly diagnosed, you will likely have options when it comes to treatment:

  • Conservative treatments like custom-made orthotics may alleviate your symptoms as well as prevent future problems, especially if there is an existing misalignment or problem with your foot.
  • Many acute problems can be conveniently treated in our office. For example, toenail fungal infections are extremely common, highly contagious, and notoriously difficult to treat. Joint Replacement Institute patients have access to on-site laser treatment that can effectively treat this type of fungal infection.
  • For patients with chronic conditions, such as diabetes, it is critical that any open wounds or changes in your foot health be treated immediately. Dr. Weaver can address your acute diabetic foot needs, as well as regularly monitor your lower limb health to help you avoid complications like amputation or life-threatening gangrene.

When foot or ankle surgery is necessary, you can trust you’re getting the very best care with a podiatrist who specializes in foot and ankle surgery.
