FRACTURES & SPRAINS

Expert Diagnosis and Treatment for Foot and Ankle Injuries

Foot and ankle injuries like fractures, sprains, and ligament tears can happen suddenly—and without proper care, they may lead to chronic pain or instability. Whether you’ve twisted your ankle during a run, dropped something on your foot, or are dealing with swelling and bruising after a misstep, our podiatry team offers prompt evaluation and personalized treatment to get you back on your feet safely.

Common Foot & Ankle Injuries We Treat

  • Ankle Sprains – stretching or tearing of ligaments from twisting injuries

  • Foot Sprains – often affecting the midfoot or toes

  • Stress Fractures – tiny cracks in the bone caused by overuse

  • Traumatic Fractures – sudden breaks from direct impact or injury

  • Ligament Tears or Ruptures – especially in the ankle, heel, or arch

  • Dislocations – joints forced out of normal alignment

If left untreated, these injuries can lead to long-term problems like joint instability, arthritis, or deformity.

Symptoms to Watch For

  • Sudden pain or discomfort when bearing weight

  • Swelling, bruising, or tenderness around the injured area

  • Limited range of motion in the foot or ankle

  • Popping sound at the time of injury

  • Visible deformity or inability to walk

Our Approach to Treatment

Your visit starts with a comprehensive physical exam and, when needed, on-site imaging (X-rays or ultrasound) to confirm the diagnosis. We then create a treatment plan based on the severity and type of injury.

Non-Surgical Care

  • Immobilization with walking boots, splints, or braces

  • RICE therapy (Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation) for early-stage care

  • Physical therapy to restore strength and stability

  • Custom orthotics or support devices during recovery

  • Anti-inflammatory medications to reduce pain and swelling

Surgical Intervention

In more serious cases—such as displaced fractures, full ligament tears, or injuries that don’t heal with conservative care—we may recommend surgery to:

  • Realign and stabilize bones or joints

  • Repair torn ligaments or tendons

  • Address joint instability to prevent future injury
