About Foot Ankle

Foot and ankle conditions range from acute injuries like sprains and fractures to chronic issues such as plantar fasciitis, bunions, and arthritis. Because the foot and ankle form a complex structure of bones, ligaments, and tendons working together for balance and movement, even minor problems can significantly affect gait and overall mobility. A thorough clinical evaluation is essential to identify the precise cause of foot and ankle symptoms.
