The podiatrists at Northern Nevada Medical Group are here to help with expertise in diagnosing, treating and helping to prevent the issues and diseases that affect a patient’s feet, ankles and related structures of the leg. Some of the conditions we treat include:

• Plantar fasciitis
  • Podiatry in Sparks, NV can help treat plantar fasciitis, which occurs when this tissue becomes swollen or inflamed, usually due to overuse or being overstretched.
• Hammer toe
  • This condition occurs when a toe becomes bent downward and moves into a claw-like position. While it may affect any of the toes, it most often affects the second toe. It can be caused by wearing shoes that are too tight, which forces the toe into a bent position.
• Sprained ankles
  • Podiatry in Sparks, NV treats sprained ankles, which occur when the ligaments in your ankle are stretched, partially torn or fully torn.
• Bunions
  • When your big toe points toward your second toe, a bunion may form on the inside edge of your toe. As the bump gets worse, this condition can become painful, as a fluid-filled sac and extra bone grow at the base of your big toe
• Achilles tendonitis
  • Achilles tendon becomes inflamed, often due to overuse in athletes or arthritis in middle-aged and older adults. The accompanying pain and swelling near the bottom of your foot can cause pain in your heel.
• Bone spurs
  • A bony protrusion that forms on the bottom of the bone at your heel is called a bone spur. Bone spurs can be caused by a number of things, including repeated strain on the ligaments and muscles of the foot.
• Ingrown toenails
  • When the edge of your toenail grows into the soft skin of your toe it results in an ingrown nail. This painful condition sometimes leads to infection. It is most common in the big toe but can occur in any toe.
