Bunions, Heel Pain, Foot Pain and Ankle pain can be quite disturbing as they might compromise your mobility. Podiatrists are specialists who help diagnose and treat conditions and injuries involving the foot, ankle and other parts of the leg. In short, you can call them a foot and ankle surgeon. Podiatry deals with the disorders of the ankle, the foot and the lower extremities such as heel spur, ingrown toenails, include corns and callouses, skin and nail disorders, foot deformities, and plantar fasciitis (pain at the bottom of the foot involving the band of fibrous tissue).
A podiatrist diagnoses and treats conditions affecting the foot, ankle, and structures of the leg such as bone spurs. Foot conditions of special interest to podiatrists include bunions, corns and callouses, diabetic foot conditions, flat feet and high arches.
