A Bunion deformity can ultimately lead to arthritis. A bunion is when the joint is basically mal-aligned (out of alignment), over time this deformity will lead to arthritis. Is better to fix your bunion to prevent future arthritis. A bunion can also lead to deformities in the other toes as well. We perform the most advanced bunion procedures, which allows you to walk immediately after surgery. #bunionsurgery #bunions #footpain #myfeetarekillingme #botched #losangeles #tarzana #woodlandhillsca #lancasterca #arthritis #palmdaleca #palmdale #woodlandhills #toe #toespreads #corn

In general, a hammer toe is a flexion (bending) contracture of one or both joints of the second through fifth toes. It is a deformity of the proximal interphala...ngeal joint (PIPJ) of the toe causing it to be permanently bent and resemble a hammer. The contracture of the toes can be flexible (reducible) at first and can get rigid (non-reducible) as the deformity progresses. If there is flexion deformity of the distal phalangeal joint(DIPJ) of the toe only, then it is called a Mallet toe (resembling a mallet). If there is a flexion deformity at the proximal interphalangeal joint (PIPJ) and distal interphalangeal joint (DIPJ), then the deformity is called a Claw toe (resembling a claw). #hammertoes #hammertoesurgery #toepain #toedeformity #toesurgery #losangeles #tarzana #woodlandhills #woodlandhillsca #lancasterca #lancaster #palmdale #palmdaleca #myfeetarekillingme #footsurgeon See more

Tumors in the foot and ankle are common. Tumors can occur in any structure: bone, muscles, tendon, ligaments, nerves, and blood vessels. These tumors vary widely in appearance and behavior. Some tumors can be quite aggressive. We usually need MRI, X-rays, ultra-sound, or CT scan, or a biopsy to diagnosis the tumor. Most tumors in the foot and ankle are benign, these tumors can include: ganglion cyst, lipoma, plantar fibromatosis, angiolipoma, fibroma, benign fibrous histiocy...toma, neurofibroma, schwannoma, neurilemmona, hemangioma, osteochondroma, enchondroma, simple bone cyst, osteoid osteoma, and giant cell tumor (just to name a few). Most tumors are treated differently, some require surgical excision, aspiration or steroid injections. #tumor #mri #ultrasound #xrays #ctscan #ganglioncyst #lipoma #plantarfibromatosis #excision #biopsy #aspiration #cortisoneinjection #cyst #dpms #myfeetarekillingme #myfeet #losangeles #tarzana #lancasterca #woodlandhillsca #softtissue See more

Toe dislocation (out of joint) can happen as a result of trauma. This type of injury can happen to patients in all age groups. If you sustain a toe dislocation you must always seek medical care immediately. A close reduction must be attempted and sometimes surgery is needed to fix the toe dislocation. #toedislocation ##toefractures #fracture #footfracture #pedsfracture #peds #pediatrics #myfootkillingme #medicine #medicinelife #losangeles #tarzana #tarzanaca #lancaster #lancasterca #palmdaleca #palmdale #woodlandhills #woodlandhillsca

Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT) is a FDA approved NON invasive procedure, which takes about 4-5 minutes. ESWT is a great alternative procedure instead of: Surgery, PRP Injections, Cortisone Injections, and Stem Cell Therapy. ESWT can be used to treat plantar fasciitis, bone spurs, tendonitis, arthritis and many other foot and ankle pathologies. ESWT is done in a office setting without any anesthesia and is almost completely pain free. #ESWT #tendonitis #tendonitissucks #plantarfasciitis #plantarfasciitisrelief #extracorporealshockwavetherapy #bonespur #arthritis #footdoctor #losangeles #tarzana #lancaster #woodlandhillsca #footpain #heelspur #posteriortibialtendonitis #flatfoot #pesplanus #pttd

Minimal Invasive Surgery (EPF) for chronic plantar fasciitis. This is a 10 minute surgery and patients are able to walk immediately after surgery. Patients can return back to tennis shoes 2-3 weeks after surgery. Plantar fasciitis is one of the most common causes of heel pain. It involves inflammation of a thick band of tissue that runs across the bottom of your foot and connects your heel bone to your toes. Plantar fasciitis commonly causes stabbing pain that usually occurs... with your first steps in the morning. As you get up and move, the pain normally decreases, but it might return after long periods of standing or when you stand up after sitting.Plantar fasciitis is more common in runners. People who are overweight and those who wear shoes with inadequate support also have an increased risk of plantar fasciitis. #mis #minimallyinvasive #minimalinvasivesurgery #epf #endoscopicplantarfasciotomy #plantarfasciitis #plantarfascia #heelpain #footpain #endoscopicsurgery #footsurgery #footsurgeryrecovery #dpm #lancaster #losangeles #plamdaleca #tarzana #tarzanaca #woodlandhills #woodlandhillsca #drjhormozi #boardcertified See more
