Expert Care for Athletic Foot & Ankle Injuries
Helping You Stay Active, Healthy, and Injury-Free
Sports medicine focuses on the treatment and prevention of injuries that occur during athletics, exercise, and fitness activities. Because your feet and ankles absorb so much impact during activity, they are especially vulnerable to injury. Our specialists provide comprehensive care for athletes of all levels, from weekend runners to competitive athletes, helping you recover quickly and return to the activities you love.
Common Foot & Ankle Sports Injuries
- Ankle Sprains – Stretching or tearing of ligaments that support the ankle.
- Tendinitis – Inflammation of tendons from overuse or repetitive motion.
- Shin Splints – Pain along the shinbone caused by stress or strain.
- Skin Blisters – Friction injuries from shoes or equipment.
- Turf Toe – Sprain of the big toe joint, often from pushing off forcefully.
- Muscle Strains – Stretching or tearing of muscle fibers.
- Fractures – Breaks in the bones of the foot or ankle.
Treatment Options
Most soft tissue injuries, such as sprains and strains, respond well to conservative care:
- P.R.I.C.E. Therapy (Protection, Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation)
- Strapping and Taping to stabilize and support the injured area
- Bracing for added protection and faster healing
- Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT) – A non-invasive treatment that uses soundwaves to stimulate blood flow and tissue regeneration, accelerating healing in both acute and chronic injuries
For more serious injuries, such as torn ligaments, fractures, or joint dislocations, surgical treatment may be necessary. Our podiatrists collaborate with physical therapists, athletic trainers, and coaches to ensure a safe, effective recovery plan.
Our Goal
The primary goal of sports medicine is to restore strength, flexibility, and mobility while preventing re-injury. With personalized treatment and advanced therapies, we help athletes return to activity quickly and confidently.
