A bunion is a bony bump that forms at the base of the big toe when the joint shifts out of alignment. Over time, the top of the big toe leans toward the second toe, creating pressure and pain that can interfere with daily activities. Bunions often become irritated by shoes, leading to redness, swelling, and soreness along the side of the foot. Some people also notice thickened skin or corns where the toes rub together. The causes are often a mix of inherited foot structure, years of pressure from footwear, and conditions such as arthritis. While wide shoes and padding may ease discomfort, they do not stop the bunion from progressing. Severe cases may require surgery to correct the joint and restore function. If you are experiencing ongoing pain from a bunion, it is suggested that you see a podiatrist for evaluation and appropriate treatment.
If you are suffering from bunion pain, contact One of our Podiatrists of One Stop Foot and Ankle Care. Our doctors can provide the care you need to keep you pain-free and on your feet.
What Is a Bunion?
Bunions are painful bony bumps that usually develop on the inside of the foot at the joint of the big toe. As the deformity increases over time, it may become painful to walk and wear shoes. Women are more likely to exacerbate existing bunions since they often wear tight, narrow shoes that shift their toes together. Bunion pain can be relieved by wearing wider shoes with enough room for the toes.
Causes
Symptoms
In order to diagnose your bunion, your podiatrist may ask about your medical history, symptoms, and general health. Your doctor might also order an x-ray to take a closer look at your feet. Nonsurgical treatment options include orthotics, padding, icing, changes in footwear, and medication. If nonsurgical treatments don’t alleviate your bunion pain, surgery may be necessary.

Pes planus, or flat feet, occurs when the arches collapse or are lower than average, creating imbalances that affect the entire body. Because arch height varies from person to person, a one-size-fits-all approach often fails to provide the relief and stability needed. Custom insoles are designed specifically for each individual, taking into account foot structure, walking patterns, and pressure distribution. By restoring balance and supporting the arch, these insoles help normalize the forces acting on the foot, reducing pain and fatigue. Many people with flat feet also notice improved performance in physical activities once their feet are properly supported. Over time, custom orthotics not only make daily movement more comfortable, but also help prevent further strain on the ankles, knees, and hips. If flat feet are limiting your mobility, it is suggested that you visit a podiatrist who can create orthotics designed just for you.
Our feet carry us through every part of life, absorbing the impact of thousands of steps each day. When they are not properly supported, the effects can extend far beyond the feet themselves. Custom orthotics provide the foundation the body needs by aligning, cushioning, and stabilizing each foot in its most natural position. They are carefully crafted to match the unique structure of each individual’s feet, allowing them to move efficiently and comfortably while reducing stress on the muscles, joints, and ligaments.
Proper foot support is essential for maintaining balance and preventing fatigue. Without it, the body compensates by shifting weight unevenly, which can lead to discomfort in the ankles, knees, hips, or lower back. Custom orthotics help restore this balance by redistributing pressure and promoting a more natural walking pattern. They not only ease existing pain but also protect against future strain or injury by supporting the arches and controlling excessive motion.
Unlike store-bought insoles, custom orthotics are created through detailed assessment and advanced technology to provide precise correction and comfort. They fit seamlessly into most shoes, making them ideal for daily wear, work, or sports.
If your feet feel tired, sore, or unsupported, it is recommended that you contact our office for more information, or to make an appointment.

An ingrown toenail occurs when the edge of the nail grows into the surrounding skin, often causing pain, redness, swelling, and sometimes infection. Common causes include improper nail trimming, wearing tight footwear, or genetic factors. It may throb or feel tender, and can appear inflamed or filled with pus, if infected. The condition, which most frequently affects the big toe, may worsen without proper care. A podiatrist can diagnose an ingrown toenail through a physical examination and medical history. Depending on severity, treatment may include soaking instructions, lifting the nail edge, partial nail removal, or, in chronic cases, removing part of the nail root. Antibiotics might be prescribed if an infection is present. A podiatrist may also advise on proper foot hygiene and footwear to prevent recurrence. If you notice symptoms of an ingrown toenail, it is suggested that you schedule an appointment with a podiatrist to avoid complications, ensuring proper care.
Ingrown toenails can become painful if they are not treated properly. For more information about ingrown toenails, contact One of our Podiatrists of One Stop Foot and Ankle Care. Our doctors can provide the care you need to keep you pain-free and on your feet.
Ingrown Toenails
Ingrown toenails occur when a toenail grows sideways into the bed of the nail, causing pain, swelling, and possibly infection.
Causes
Prevention
Wearing proper fitting shoes and using proper cutting techniques will also help decrease your risk of developing ingrown toenails.
Treatment
Ingrown toenails are a very treatable foot condition. In minor cases, soaking the affected area in salt or antibacterial soaps will not only help with the ingrown nail itself, but also help prevent any infections from occurring. In more severe cases, surgery is an option. In either case, speaking to your podiatrist about this condition will help you get a better understanding of specific treatment options that are right for you.

Athlete’s foot is a fungal infection that affects the skin of the feet, often developing between the toes. It thrives in warm and moist environments, making locker rooms, around pools, and tight footwear common sources of exposure. Symptoms include itching, burning, redness, peeling skin, and sometimes blisters or cracked areas that can become painful. Risk factors include excessive sweating, walking barefoot in public places, or wearing shoes that do not allow the feet to breathe. A podiatrist can diagnose the condition, provide effective anti-fungal treatments, and recommend prevention strategies to keep feet healthy. If you are experiencing signs of athlete’s foot, it is suggested that you consult a podiatrist who can provide effective treatment solutions, which may include prescribed medication.
Athlete’s Foot

What Is Athlete’s Foot?
Tinea pedis, more commonly known as athlete’s foot, is a non-serious and common fungal infection of the foot. Athlete’s foot is contagious and can be contracted by touching someone who has it or infected surfaces. The most common places contaminated by it are public showers, locker rooms, and swimming pools. Once contracted, it grows on feet that are left inside moist, dark, and warm shoes and socks.
Prevention
The most effective ways to prevent athlete’s foot include:
Symptoms
Athlete’s foot initially occurs as a rash between the toes. However, if left undiagnosed, it can spread to the sides and bottom of the feet, toenails, and if touched by hand, the hands themselves. Symptoms include:
Diagnosis and Treatment
Diagnosis is quick and easy. Skin samples will be taken and either viewed under a microscope or sent to a lab for testing. Sometimes, a podiatrist can diagnose it based on simply looking at it. Once confirmed, treatment options include oral and topical antifungal medications.

Ingrown toenails occur when the edge of the nail grows into the surrounding skin, causing pain, redness, swelling, and sometimes infection. When conservative treatments fail or the condition is severe or recurrent, ingrown toenail surgery may be needed to remove part or all of the affected nail. This procedure relieves pressure, lowers infection risk, and helps prevent the problem from returning. A podiatrist can determine if surgery is necessary, perform the procedure safely, and provide aftercare instructions to promote healing. They can also offer guidance on proper nail trimming and footwear to reduce recurrence. Ingrown toenails can be painful. If you have this condition, it is suggested that you are under the care of a podiatrist who can offer effective treatment solutions, which may include minor surgery for removal.
Foot surgery is sometimes necessary to treat a foot ailment. To learn more, contact One of our Podiatrists of One Stop Foot and Ankle Care. Our doctors will assist you with all of your foot and ankle needs.

What Types of Surgery Are There?
The type of surgery you receive will depend on the nature of the problem you have. Some of the possible surgeries include:
Benefits of Surgery
Although surgery is usually a last resort, it can provide more complete pain relief compared to non-surgical methods and may allow you to finally resume full activity.
Surgical techniques have also become increasingly sophisticated. Techniques like endoscopic surgery allow for smaller incisions and faster recovery times.

Foot and ankle discomfort in children can arise from a variety of causes, including growth-related changes, overuse injuries, or structural concerns. A podiatrist evaluates the child’s medical history, activity level, and footwear to identify potential contributing factors. The examination may include checking joint flexibility, muscle strength, and walking patterns to detect abnormalities. Imaging tests are sometimes used to confirm the diagnosis or rule out more serious conditions. Early identification of the underlying issue is important to prevent the problem from interfering with daily activities or sports participation. Treatment may involve activity modification, stretching, wearing supportive footwear, or custom orthotics to address specific needs. Timely intervention can help relieve discomfort, promote healthy development, and reduce the risk of chronic problems. If your child experiences persistent foot or ankle pain, it is suggested you arrange for an evaluation with a podiatrist.
Making sure that your children maintain good foot health is very important as they grow. If you have any questions, contact One of our Podiatrists of One Stop Foot and Ankle Care. Our doctors can provide the care you need to keep you pain-free and on your feet.
Keeping Children's Feet Healthy
Having healthy feet during childhood can help prevent medical problems later in life, namely in the back and legs. As children grow, their feet require different types of care. Here are some things to consider...
Although babies do not walk yet, it is still very important to take care of their feet.
Avoid putting tight shoes or socks on his or her feet.
Allow the baby to stretch and kick his or her feet to feel comfortable.
As a toddler, kids are now on the move and begin to develop differently. At this age, toddlers are getting a feel for walking, so don’t be alarmed if your toddler is unsteady or ‘walks funny’.
As your child gets older, it is important to teach them how to take care of their feet.
Show them proper hygiene to prevent infections such as fungus.
Be watchful for any pain or injury.
Have all injuries checked by a doctor as soon as possible.
Comfortable, protective shoes should always be worn, especially at play.
