Warts
Arthritis
Plantar Fasciitis
A heel spur is a bony protrusion that occurs on the heel. It is often confused with plantar fasciitis, which is inflammation of the plantar fascia ligament. When a heel spur is painful it can make it quite difficult to walk.
Primary Care
4/8/08 - We prescribed a Roll-A-Bout for the patient to remain essentially nonweightbearing, as our concern with healing continued. In addition, she was put on had used her external bone stimulator 40 days with 11.4 hours/day and continued to guard the area with the Cam Walker and the EBI unit. Our thought process was that she might require another APC should the talar neck fracture not heal. Our main concern was the fact that the fracture was traversing the nutrient artery in the talar neck. We previously recommended the patient go for bone density testing, which had been performed by her primary care doctor with the results indicating osteopenia with increased risk for fracture.
Family Practice
Emergency Care
Every 11 seconds, an elderly American is being treated in an emergency room for a fall related injury. Falls are the leading cause of head and hip injuries for those 65 and older. Due to decreases in strength, balance, senses, and lack of awareness, elderly persons are very susceptible to falling. Thankfully, there are a number of things older persons can do to prevent falls.

Corns
Corns and calluses are hard layers of skin that usually form due to friction. Generally, they will be in areas of the foot that are bearing weight, or areas that frequently rub against the shoe. Soft corns are typically found between the toes.
Cyst
Ulcer
There are 2 main causes of diabetic foot ulcers. Most often, they result from lack of feeling in the feet (neuropathy). This condition can result in injury because normally painful sensations, such as stepping on a pin, cannot be felt and therefore may not be properly treated. Continuing to walk on the injured foot may cause an ulcer to develop.

Sports Medicine
Dr. Dr. Stock enjoys sports medicine and reconstructive surgery of the foot and ankle. Her professional memberships include the American Podiatric Medical Association, the Michigan Podiatric Medical Association, and the American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons. She enjoys sports such as skiing and running. In 2010 she competed in two triathlons: St. Anthony's Triathlon in St. Petersburg, Florida, and the Island Lake Triathlon in Brighton, Michigan. These events are grueling, but allow Dr. Stock the opportunity to push herself beyond even her own expectations. She applies the lessons she learns here-the importance of preparation, discipline and endurance-to her practice of medicine.

General Podiatry
That spring, Dr. Ward was accepted to Kent State College of Podiatric Medicine in Cleveland, Ohio. In her second semester of medical school, Dr. Ward was faced with adversity when she became very ill and was admitted to the hospital for eight days. Following this life altering event, Dr. Ward was forced to take a two-month medical leave but refused to accept recommendations from faculty and peers to repeat her entire year. In a testament to her drive and tenacity, Dr. Ward not only returned to school that semester, but finished in the top 12% of her graduating class earning her Doctorate of Podiatric Medicine (DPM).
Ankle Sprain
The common symptoms that are generally associated with ankle pain include stiffness, pain, and swelling. There is no mistaking an ankle injury and it can temporarily halt everyday activities. Ankle pain can occur from unexpectedly stepping off of a curb or in people who run frequently. Running can cause consistent pressure on the ankle bones and joints. The ankle may gradually weaken and pain may ensue. Many times an X-ray is taken which can rule out a broken ankle. It is beneficial to elevate the ankle, preferably above the heart, to help reduce swelling. Once the ankle begins to heal, specific stretches can be done to strengthen the ankle. If you have ankle pain, it is strongly suggested that you consult with a podiatrist who can determine the cause and offer the treatment methods that are right for you.
Bunions Problems
A bunion is a bone deformity usually occurring at the base of the big toe. This is a progressive condition that is made worse by inward pressure from tight shoes. Bunions can be very painful, and in some instances surgery may be necessary to remove them.
Calluses
Diabetic Foot Care
Michigan Foot and Ankle is available to treat foot and ankle ailments such as diabetic foot care, ingrown toenails, fungal toenails, warts and painful calluses. Our practice specializes in general foot care. Please call our office in Ferndale (248) 548-7363 or Milford/Highland/Commerce (248) 685-1300 for an appointment.
Flat Feet
Hammertoes
Hammertoe is a characterized by one or more of the toes having a bend in the middle joint. This occurs because of weakening of the muscle due to poorly fitted shoes or a genetically inherited trait.
Heel Spurs
Traditional treatments for heel pain consist of anti-inflammatory medications, injections, padding, orthotic inserts and even surgical release of the plantar fascia ligament or heel spur removal. For resistant heel pain our doctors now perform the latest non-incisional surgery for heel pain and plantar fasciitis. "Extracorporeal Shock Wave Treatment" "Extracorporeal" means "outside the body". Shock waves are created by very strong acoustic (sound) energy. Your ESW treatment will be performed with a device called the OssaTron. The shock waves are created by a spark plug that is enclosed in a soft plastic dome filled with water. During ESW treatment, this dome is placed close against the heel so that the shock waves pass through the dome to the heel. ESW treatment has recently been found to be effective for treating chronic proximal plantar fasciitis, a condition that causes pain in the heel of the affected foot and is sometimes call "heel spurs".

Plantar Fasciitis
If over-the-counter inserts don’t work for you or if you have a more severe foot concern, it is possible to have your podiatrist prescribe custom orthotics. These high-quality inserts are designed to treat problems such as abnormal motion, plantar fasciitis, and severe forms of heel pain. They can even be used to help patients suffering from diabetes by treating foot ulcers and painful calluses and are usually molded to your feet individually, which allows them to provide full support and comfort.
Podiatric Deformities
Foot deformities such as hammertoes, bunions, and metatarsal disorders have special significance in the diabetic population. Neuropathy places the foot at increased risk for developing corns, calluses, blisters and ulcerations. If left untreated, serious infections may result.
Podiatric Surgery
Orthotics are defined as devices that are inserted in the shoes designed to help to correct foot abnormalities. Custom-made orthotics are tailored to a patient's specific needs, and can be effective in providing comfort as daily activities are completed. People who have flat feet or high arches may be candidates for orthotics, in addition to patients who have hammertoe or bunions. Orthotics can alter the angles of how the foot strikes the ground or absorbs shock, and may help to improve balance. Podiatrists may consider orthotics to be a viable option in correcting foot and ankle conditions before considering foot surgery. It is important for people who are diabetic to ensure their orthotics fit perfectly, possibly helping to prevent additional unwanted foot issues. If you would like to know if wearing orthotics is an option for you, it is suggested that you consult with a podiatrist who can guide you toward making the right decision.
