  • Can acupuncture help with ankle pain?

    First, the reason for the ankle pain has to be determined. Acupuncture will not help with ankle pain, it may soothe some of the symptoms temporarily but you must keep in mind, that if there is ankle pain, there is a valid reason. See a podiatrist who will assess the situation, take X-rays and send you for an MRI. READ MORE

  • How long does it take to recover from a bone spur surgery?

    It depends what type of bone spur you are talking about. If it is a bone spur under your heel and a plantar fasciotomy is performed as well, you should recover and be back in your shoes in 3 weeks. If the spur is on the back of your heel where the Achilles Tendon is, then it would require 6 to 8 weeks to recover. READ MORE

  • When is ankle surgery necessary?

    This is not a simple question, but I am going to try to answer as best as I can. The only reason to have ankle surgery is if you had trauma where you tore your ligaments or your tendons. Another reason would be because you have an unstable ankle and you are chronically spraining your ankle. I hope this answers your question. READ MORE

  • Toenail surgery?

    I never have my patients wait after toenail surgery. I do the procedure and I tell them to take it off (the bandage) that night. Then I tell them to set their foot in epson salt and water for 10 minutes. READ MORE

  • How long before you can walk after hammertoe surgery?

    You should be able to walk after hammertoe surgery immediately as long as you wear a surgical shoe. If you have a pin, the pins are usually removed 4 to 6 weeks depending on where they are placed, and again, you can still walk with a surgical shoe for that time period. READ MORE

  • What can you never do after ankle surgery?

    If you have a good ankle surgeon, you can pretty much do anything you want after surgery. If you're talking about total ankle implant, you are limited. You cannot do jumping or excessive activity. READ MORE

  • Why do I still have pain after ankle surgery?

    It is normal to still have pain after ankle surgery due to the fact that it is a big surgery that requires opening of the entire ankle and there's a lot of scar tissue and the body needs to heal properly READ MORE

  • Will I be able to bend my toe after bunion surgery?

    Yes you will definitely be able to bend your toe after bunion surgery. The important thing is you find a good surgeon to do the surgery. Unfortunately there are many out there who blotch the surgery and people do end up with the toe that does not function. Make sure to do your research, look at all reviews, and when you choose the correct physician you will have a very good outcome and will be happy. I have been practicing for 20 years and all of my patients are able to move their toe and women are able to wear high heels. All my patients are able to do all the things they weren't able to do before surgery. READ MORE

  • How long should I wear an ankle brace after a fracture?

  • Can a broken big toe that happened 35 years ago cause problems years later like varicose veins?

    No, a broken big toe cannot cause varicose veins, but if you has an intra-articular fracture, meaning a break in the joint, then you could get osteoarthritis secondary to the trauma. READ MORE

  • How do you get rid of ankle pain after surgery?

    Hi, Ankle pain after surgery could mean a lot of things. I suggest getting an MRI and X-rays to assess the situation. The reason I am saying this is because you should NOT be having pain after ankle surgery. The whole point of a surgery to the ankle is to stabilize and to make you pain free. So, if you are experiencing this you need to see if there's something else underlying, if the surgery was unsuccessful, or simply you may need more physical therapy. I hope this helps. READ MORE

  • Foot pain?

    This could be a multitude of things. X-rays need to be taken, blood work done, and then you could be better evaluated. READ MORE

  • Sprained ankle?

    Difficult to see image, but if I am looking at it correctly, I believe it is a small fracture, but again, image is fuzzy. READ MORE
