Achilles Tendonitis Treatment
Achilles tendonitis treatment at Affiliated Foot & Ankle Care addresses inflammation and injury to the Achilles tendon through personalized plans. Our board-certified podiatrists use oral medications, immobilization, orthotics, and physical therapy to reduce pain and restore mobility. Patients receive detailed recovery guidance to prevent re-injury, with surgical options available for severe cases. Our approach emphasizes rapid pain relief and long-term tendon health.
Bunion Correction
Bunion correction services include conservative treatments and surgical solutions for painful big toe deformities. Our team designs tailored plans using night splints, orthotics, or minimally invasive surgery to realign the toe joint. We focus on alleviating pain, improving foot function, and preventing progression through expert evaluation and patient education on footwear and preventive care.
Diabetic Foot Care
Specialized diabetic foot care prevents and treats complications like ulcers and infections. Our podiatrists provide regular check-ups, wound care, and custom orthotics to maintain foot health. We educate patients on daily care routines and early warning signs, reducing amputation risks through proactive management of circulation issues and nerve damage associated with diabetes.
Ankle Fracture Treatment
Ankle fracture treatment combines on-site imaging, immobilization, and surgical intervention for broken bones. Our team stabilizes injuries using crutches, walking boots, or biocompatible hardware to ensure proper healing. Post-treatment rehabilitation guidance helps patients regain strength and mobility, with emergency appointments available for acute injuries requiring immediate attention.
Fungal Nail Treatment
Fungal nail treatment targets infections causing discoloration and brittleness. We prescribe topical or oral antifungal medications and preventive strategies like foot powders and moisture control. Our approach eliminates infections while educating patients on hygiene practices to avoid recurrence, ensuring healthier, clearer nails through targeted, evidence-based therapies.
