Why is Foot Care So Important?

It's easy to dismiss foot pain, but your feet are two of the most important parts of your body. Because they support the entire body, your foot health has a strong impact on your overall health. Your feet are complex; there are 26 bones, 33 joints, and over 100 muscles, ligaments, and tendons in your foot and ankle combined. With so many individual parts, there are many things that can go wrong in the toe, the ball of the foot, the heel, and the ankle. Fortunately, an experienced podiatrist office can help you diagnose and treat anything that might go wrong, as well as provide tips on how to avoid other ailments. Call our podiatrist office today for all your foot care needs!
As a foot doctor, Dr. Gelia can help patients with any of the following:
  • Custom Orthotics—Sometimes a simple orthotic inserted into the shoe or applied to the foot can make a world of difference for arch problems or for restricting movement to facilitate the healing process.
  • Flat Foot Surgery—In extreme cases it may be necessary to have surgery to relieve severe pain from flat feet.
  • Foot Drop—We can provide custom orthotics or other treatments to help restore your natural gait.
  • Stress Fracture Foot—Stress fractures can be frustrating, as the only way they will heal is by staying off of the foot. We offer treatments to help with the pain and facilitate the healing process.

  • Foot Cramps—We can help with solutions if you suffer from chronic foot cramps. It could be as simple as ensuring you are properly hydrated, and we can help with stretches that will help lessen the frequency or eliminate them altogether.
