Title: Common Foot and Ankle Injuries and Diseases


1
Common Foot And Ankle Injuries And Diseases
2
Achilles Tendonitis
  • Achilles Tendonitis is the inflammation of the
    tendon and may include small tears to the tendon.
  • If left untreated, the condition can degenerate
    the tendon and lead to rupture of the tendon

3
Arthritis of the Foot and Ankle
  • Arthritis is a condition in which the cartilage,
    which cushions and protects the ends of the
    bones, begins to deteriorate.
  • There are a variety of treatments that can
    relieve the pain and allow you to remain active.

4
Bunions
  • Bunions often appear as bumps or an enlarged
    growth on the side of your big toe. Over time the
    growth can enlarge and cause additional pain and
    discomfort.

5
Diabetic Foot
  • Diabetics are prone to foot problems, due to the
    poor circulation and nerve damage caused by
    diabetes. Poor circulation reduces your foot's
    ability to heal.
  • Neuropathy or nerve damage can cause a loss of
    feeling in your foot, removing the ability to
    detect pain or discomfort.
  • Foot care is especially important if you have
    diabetes.

6
Flat Feet
  • Flat feet or flat foot is often a disorder with a
    diverse range of symptoms and varying degrees of
    deformity and disability.
  • All cases of flat feet or flat foot are a result
    of a collapse of the arch of the foot causing
    your entire foot to lay flat when standing.

7
Hammer Toe
  • Hammertoes are a contracture of one or both
    joints in the toes. This abnormal bending can put
    pressure on the toes when wearing shoes, causing
    problems to develop.
  • Treatment options vary based on the severity of
    the hammertoes.

8
Heel Pain
  • Heel pain can be caused by a wide variety of
    conditions or injuries, how you commonly use your
    feet at work or in sports, your genetics, body
    type, age and health.
  • Any number of ailments including plantar
    fasciitis, tendonitis, arthritis, calluses,
    stress fractures could be cause of heel pain

9
Foot Fractures
  • A fracture is a partial or complete break in
    one of the bones in your foot or ankle. Fractures
    or breaks are often painful but are rarely
    disabling.
