Conditions We Treat
Heel Pain
The podiatrists on our team offer effective, long-term treatments for all forms of heel pain, including plantar fasciitis and Achilles tendinitis. We’ll carry out a comprehensive assessment to diagnose your heel pain and provide industry-leading treatment to support your healing.
Achilles Tendinitis
The biggest tendon in the body is the Achilles tendon. This tendon links your calf muscles to your heel bone and is activated during activities like walking, running, climbing stairs, jumping, and standing on your toes. While the Achilles tendon is tough enough to handle the intense strain from running and jumping, it can also develop tendinitis due to overuse and wear and tear.
Bunions
Bunions, caused by the big toe shifting position and leading to a misaligned bone on the big toe joint, can be both painful and disruptive to your daily life. At Coastal Podiatry, we provide diagnoses and treatments using the latest podiatry methods.
Plantar Fasciitis
The plantar fascia is a long, thin ligament located beneath the skin on the sole of your foot. It connects the heel to the front of the foot, providing support to the arch. When this supportive tissue becomes irritated and inflamed, it results in plantar fasciitis.
