Posts for tag: Phil Mickelson
Phil Mickelson has been treated for arthritis that surfaced just before the U.S. Open and left him in so much pain he couldn't walk. Arthritis is a problem that we treat at Atlantic Foot and Ankle Associates on a daily basis. Because the foot and ankle have 36 joints, the inflammation caused by arthritis can cause limitation, pain, swelling, and ultimately affects day-to-day life. We try to find not only the cause of the arthritis, but also give patient's solutions to get them back to their activity level, with conservative measures and straightforward treatment options.
Many causes of arthritis exist, but most commonly is day-to-day wear and tear. Arthritis is also caused by a sudden trauma or repetitive small trauma, and can be due to the shape of the foot which can cause jamming of the joints. Hereditary factors, bacterial and viral infections, and multisystem disorders can also cause a lead to arthritis. Also, arthritis in one joint can cause or worsen arthritis in another joint seen commonly in the foot with bunions, hammertoes, or even an arthritic ankle.
Arthritic conditions are initially diagnosed with symptomatology, x-ray findings, laboratory studies, and ruling out other common tendon and ligament issues in the foot. At Atlantic Foot and Ankle Associates we not only use these tests, but also our clinical experience to determine how to gear the proper treatment toward each patient. Treatments include padding and strapping of the foot, molded insoles, multiple anti-inflammatory medications both topical and oral, and in severe cases an injection. In some cases, surgical options may need to be entertained.
We Atlantic Foot and Ankle Associates are familiar with the management and treatment of arthritis of the foot and ankle. Often times, there is no permanent cure. However through palliative treatment, proper shoes and insoles, and careful working with other physicians, we can get you on your feet pain free. Don't be one of the 40 million people in America that suffers with this disease. Visit one of our four offices (Daytona Beach, Palm Coast, Port Orange, and Orange City) and let us help you with your arthritis today.
