Metatarsalgia

Pain under the ball of the foot, typically base of 2nd or 3rd toes.  Feels like walking on swollen ball under the forefoot that gets more intense with more activity.  Most painful barefoot without any support or cushioning.  Caused by collapse of the transverse arch of the foot or with a bunion deformity.  Treatments include proper shoes, custom orthotic support to raise the transverse arch or surgical re alignment.

Transformational

The health benefits of successful podiatry intervention speaks for itself. It can be transformational, helping patients get back on their feet – literally. Treatment doesn’t just successfully resolve a presenting issue – it also gives people back enjoyment in their lives.

It's been almost 5 months and I wanted to let you know how impressed I am with how smoothly my bunion surgery and recovery went!  I'm not experiencing the pain I had at night before the surgery,  was back in my regular shoes at 3 months and the scar is so faint it can hardly be seen. Thanks again!
