Ankle and Foot Specialist Houston

One of the most recurrent reasons in patients who come to the consultation of a podiatrist are digital deformities.

These can be of various types and depending on their characteristics the specialist can choose between a conservative treatment or a bloody one.

Determine the possible causes of the problem using the information obtained in the clinical history, as well as that obtained from the physical examination and the evaluation of complementary tests, will provide the specialist with the necessary elements to determine the best way to approach the problem.

From a generic point of view, in conservative therapies the use of custom silicones, reusable in time and easy to maintain or bandages, are usually the most common ways of compensating the problem immediately without major disorders for the patient.

The surgical approach is chosen when the deformity can not be approached conservatively, and especially when the problem involves a serious conflict with the footwear or the patient perceives an associated pain that could be invalidating. However, normally this type of intervention does not require postoperative lengths, nor do they pose a great problem for patients since discharge is not usually delayed in time and the results are in most cases very satisfactory.

When in doubt, go to your reference podiatrist.
