Achilles Rupture
Achilles Rupture
The Achilles tendon is the largest tendon in the human body and can withstand forces of 1,000 pounds or more. But it is also the most frequently ruptured tendon.
Bunions
If the joint that connects your big toe to your foot has a swollen, sore bump, you may have a bunion.
Hammer Toe
A hammer toe is a deformity of the second, third or fourth toes. In this condition, the toe is bent at the middle joint, so that it resembles a hammer
Ingrown Toenail
If you trim your toenails too short, particularly on the sides of your big toes, you may set the stage for an ingrown toenail.
Morton's Neuroma
If you sometimes feel that you are "walking on a marble," and you have persistent pain in the ball of your foot, you may have a condition called Morton's neuroma.
Broken Ankle
During the past 30 years, doctors have noted an increase in the number and severity of broken ankles, due in part to an active, older population of "baby boomers."
Sprained Ankle
A sprained ankle is a very common injury. Approximately 25,000 people experience it each day.
Fracture of the Talus
The talus (TAY-lus) is a small bone that sits between the heel bone (calcaneus) and the two bones of the lower leg (tibia and fibula). It has an odd humped shape, somewhat like a turtle.
Fractures of the Heel
It's not easy to break your heel bone (calcaneus). Because it takes a lot of force, such as that sustained in a motor vehicle accident or a fall from a height, you may also incur other injuries as well, particularly to the back.
Stiff Big Toe (Hallux Rigidus)
The most common site of arthritis in the foot is at the base of the big toe. This joint is called the metatarsophalangeal, or MTP joint.
Stress Fractures of the Foot & Ankle
Stress fractures are a type of overuse injury. These tiny cracks in your bones develop when your muscles become overtired (fatigued) and can no longer absorb the shock of repeated impacts.
