Foot

Our fellowship-trained foot doctor at Carolina Orthopaedic & Sports Medicine Center is a recognized expert in the diagnosis and treatment of foot injuries and conditions.

As the foundation for your lower body’s movement, the foot and its numerous bones, ligaments, tendons, and muscles can be a source of significant joint pain. Often associated with inappropriate footwear or poor alignment, pain in the foot is most commonly associated with trauma, such as a fracture, a disease, such as osteoarthritis, deformities, such as a bunion, or stress injuries.

If you are experiencing any of the following foot pain symptoms, it may be time to visit with a foot specialist.

• Numbness in the foot
• Pain in the heel, ball, or arch of the foot
• Inability to perform daily activities without foot pain
• Swelling or tenderness
• If the afflicted area looks deformed or you have lost function

A consultation with a foot doctor is the best way to differentiate between a severe foot condition and minor foot injury. At Carolina Orthopaedic & Sports Medicine Center, we understand that foot pain can have a significant impact on your daily life, and we will work with you to develop a treatment plan specific to your needs.
