Don't let foot pain limit your life any longer. Our expert team is ready to help you on your journey to recovery.
Foot pain varies significantly in type, location, and severity. Understanding the nature of your specific foot pain is crucial for effective treatment and long-term relief.
Your foot consists of 26 bones, 33 joints, and over 100 muscles, tendons, and ligaments. Common pain areas include the heel (plantar fascia), ball of the foot (metatarsals), arch, and toes. Each structure plays a crucial role in weight-bearing, balance, and movement.
Our specialist team conducts thorough assessments to identify exactly which structures are causing your pain, whether it's tendons, ligaments, joints, nerves, or soft tissues. We use advanced diagnostic techniques including physical examination, gait analysis, and imaging studies to develop a precise treatment plan tailored to your specific condition.
Foot anatomy and common pain areas
Our expert team specializes in diagnosing and treating various types of foot pain, each requiring a unique approach for optimal recovery.
The most common cause of heel pain, characterised by inflammation of the plantar fascia ligament. Often worse in the morning or after rest.
Pain in the ball of the foot, often caused by overuse, high heels, or foot deformities. Feels like walking on pebbles or burning sensation.
Inflammation of the Achilles tendon, common in runners and active individuals. Causes pain and stiffness above the heel, especially in the morning.
Thickening of nerve tissue between the toes, causing burning pain, numbness, or feeling like there's a stone in your shoe.
Bony bump on the side of the big toe joint causing pain, swelling, and difficulty wearing shoes. Can lead to altered gait and secondary problems.
Many foot pain conditions share similar symptoms, making self-diagnosis difficult. Our specialists use comprehensive assessment techniques including gait analysis to determine the exact cause of your pain and create an appropriate treatment plan.
