FOOT & ANKLE

The feet are complex joints that bear the load of the body, acting as a kind of shock absorber by making direct contact with the ground. These joints come together through a series of complex mechanisms to transfer body weight to the ground in a balanced way during walking and running. The correct angles between the bones, muscles, joints and ligaments that make up the foot structure are critical for body movement and balance.

However, many people have congenital or acquired foot deformities. These structural or functional disorders of the foot structure can cause pain in the knee, leg and even lower back over time. Foot deformities can lead to an uneven distribution of body weight and ineffective contact with the ground. Over time, this can lead to joint stress, muscle tension and pain, which can limit overall mobility.

Foot disorders can take various forms, such as uneven gait, heel spurs, hammertoes or flatfoot. These conditions can affect daily activities and negatively affect quality of life.
