Arthritic Foot Conditions

Osteoarthritis

The most common type of arthritis that occurs at joints due to “wear and tear”. Often termed the “traditional or common arthritis” osteoarthritis can be debilitating; affecting any and or every joint in the foot/ankle or body. Millions of people are diagnosed with osteoarthritis each year. The treatment for osteoarthritis can include anti-inflammation medications, physical therapy, vitamin supplements, custom made orthotics to realign the joints, and if severe enough surgical management.

Rhematoid Arthritis and Other Systemic Arthropathies

While more rare than the traditional arthritis, these arthropathies usually affect the entire body in debilitating manners. Treatments include anti inflammation medication, physical therapy regiments, custom made orthotics and reconstructive surgeries (for those debilitated by the arthritis reconstructive surgery.)

Our doctors specialize in the treatment of arthritic foot problems and work hard to relieve the pain and deformity associated with this condition.
