Foot and Ankle Problems?
We have five experienced and licensed podiatrist doctors who see patients daily at Hampton Roads Foot and Ankle Specialists at one of our two locations in Williamsburg and Hampton, VA, for various foot and ankle conditions. Our doctors Dr. Sara Bouraee, Dr. Jon Houseworth, Dr. Sun Byun, Dr. Daria Piotrowksi, and Dr. Shruti Vyas see many patients daily who have problems with chronic foot and ankle pain.
You don't have to suffer from unnecessary pain. Pain is never due to age. However, most patients over 50 say that foot and ankle pain is nothing new. For example, it is common for seniors to develop arthritis or osteoporosis (underlying conditions), and this may cause pain.
Seeking Professional Help for Foot and Ankle Pain
Pain is not a normal thing that happens, and aging has nothing to do with chronic pain. There is always an underlying condition causing your pain, and once we figure out what the problem is and treat it, the pain likely goes away.
A podiatrist at Hampton Roads Foot and Ankle Specialists in Hampton and Williamsburg, VA, must consider the type and location of the pain, as many things cause foot and ankle discomfort.
Foot and ankle pain decreases work productivity, takes the enjoyment out of recreational activities, and decreases your quality of life. Please come to us when your foot and ankle pain becomes chronic. Let us assess and treat the condition causing your pain.
Don't ignore foot and ankle pain, and hope it goes away soon because it likely will not. Pain brings complications such as balance impairment, decreased foot and ankle function, and increased fall risk. Pain can be referred pain, meaning the pain in your foot is coming from another part of your body.
Pain can originate in a bone, muscle, ligament, or tendon; we won't know until we examine you and do some testing. You need to see one of our doctors for the following issues so we can start treatment immediately.
- Stress fractures
- Persistent heel pain
- Psoriatic arthritis
- Diabetes
- Gout
- Blood clot
If you have had the pain for more than a few days or the pain is worsening, it is time to have one of our doctors examine your foot and ankle.
