What is a Podiatrist?
A podiatrist is a medical professional who specializes in diagnosing and treating foot and ankle conditions. Podiatrists are highly trained and experienced in treating the ankle, foot, and lower leg. They use a variety of techniques, including physical therapy, orthotics, surgical methods and various medications to treat a wide range of foot and ankle conditions. In addition, Marietta podiatrists can provide advice on foot and ankle care, such as proper shoe selection and even daily exercise habits.
Common Foot & Ankle Conditions
Foot and ankle conditions can range from minor aches and pains to chronic and debilitating issues. Common foot and ankle conditions include, but are not limited to: bunions, hammertoes, heel pain, plantar fasciitis, ankle sprains, flat feet and shin splints. If left untreated, these conditions can lead to long-term damage and disability. This is why it’s important to schedule an initial appointment the minute you suspect that there is an issue going on.
