Common Traumatic Foot Injuries
Foot injuries treated at our facility include metatarsal fractures, calcaneus (heel) fractures from falls, Lisfranc joint injuries, plantar fascia tears, stress fractures, and post-traumatic foot arthritis. In motor vehicle accidents, foot injuries frequently result from the foot bracing against the brake pedal or floorboard at the moment of impact.

Treatment ranges from immobilization and physical therapy for stable injuries to surgical fixation for displaced fractures and joint dislocations. All treatment is documented for personal injury or workers’ compensation claims.
