Common foot problems

- Plantar fasciitis (heel pain)
- Achilles tendonitis
- Bunions
- Hammertoes
- Ingrown toenails
- Fungal infections (athlete's foot)

If you are dealing with any of these injuries or conditions, you don't have to live with that pain in your foot! Make an appointment to come see us in Springfield, Decatur, Sullivan, Carlinville, Shelbyville, Taylorville, and Monticello, IL.
Sports injuries
Athletes often have overuse injuries and could benefit from seeing a podiatrist. Your foot doctor can help you rehabilitate injuries with physical therapy. If you are an athlete or a very active person, a podiatrist could be an important lifeline for you.
Diabetic foot care
If you have been diagnosed with diabetes your foot care will be especially important. High blood sugars lead to nerve damage and this makes diabetics less aware of potential cuts or wounds on their feet. Daily washing, drying, and checking the feet for injuries is recommended.
