Foot and Ankle Arthritis | Plantar Fasciitis

Medical Conditions: Arch / Midfoot

	Achilles Tendonitis, Bursitis Bursitis, or Achilles tendonitis is an inflammation of the Achilles tendon. This inflammation is typically short-lived. Over time the condition can progress to a degeneration of the tendon (Achilles tendinosis), in which the tendon loses its organized structure and is likely to develop microscopic tears causing further foot and ankle pain.
	Charcot Charcot is a condition of the foot typically experienced by people suffering from neuropathy, oftentimes as a result of diabetes.
	Foot Fracture (Metatarsal Fracture) Your foot is a complex structure made up of bones, muscles and tendons - and fractures of the toe and metatarsal bones are some of the most common foot injuries and causes of foot pain.
	Midfoot Arthritis (DJD) This condition is characterized by the breakdown and eventual loss of cartilage in one or more joints. When cartilage deteriorates or is lost, even simple daily activities become painful.
	Peroneal Tendonitis/Tear Tendon injuries to the foot and ankle can elevate until the tendon tears or ruptures.
	Plantar Fasciitis Heel pain is most often caused by plantar fasciitis--an inflammation of the band of tissue (the plantar fascia) that extends from the heel to the toes.
	Posterior Tibial Tendon Dysfunction PTTD is the painful irritation and weakening of the key tendon that connects to the inside edge of the foot at the arch.
	Tarsal Tunnel Pain, numbness, burning and electrical sensations may occur along the course of the nerve, which includes the inside of the ankle, heel, arch and bottom of foot.
	Ulcer Foot / Toe There are three common types of leg and foot ulcers. Each one has a unique treatment program to effectively heal the wound and keep it from returning.
