Common Foot and Ankle Conditions
Heel Pain (Plantar Fasciitis)
Plantar fasciitis is a leading cause of sharp, stabbing pain in the bottom of the heel. Our diagnostic process focuses on identifying the root cause of your discomfort to create an effective treatment plan for lasting relief.
Bunions
A bunion is a painful bony bump that forms at the base of the big toe, often causing discomfort and difficulty with footwear. Dr. Curson provides tailored conservative and surgical solutions to alleviate pain and restore proper foot alignment.
Achilles Tendinitis
This condition involves inflammation of the Achilles tendon, which connects the calf muscles to the heel bone, resulting in pain and stiffness. We offer multiple treatment methods to reduce inflammation and help you regain mobility.
Diabetic Foot Care
Individuals with diabetes require specialized foot care to prevent serious complications like ulcers and infections. We provide comprehensive examinations and proactive treatments to safeguard your lower extremity health.
Fungal Toenails
Toenail fungus, or onychomycosis, causes nails to become discolored, brittle, and thick. This common infection can be persistent and may lead to discomfort and an unsightly appearance if left untreated.
Our Podiatric Treatment Options
Following a comprehensive evaluation, Dr. Curson will recommend a course of action tailored to your diagnosis and lifestyle. Our practice combines proven techniques with modern technology to deliver effective care.
MLS Laser Therapy
We design custom-molded orthotics to fit your unique foot structure. These devices provide support, improve alignment, and relieve pain associated with conditions like flat feet and plantar fasciitis.
Soundwave Therapy
MLS Laser Therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses specific wavelengths of light to reduce pain and inflammation. It helps accelerate tissue repair and healing for a variety of acute and chronic conditions.
Custom Orthotics
Extracorporeal Pulse Activation Technology (EPAT), also known as shockwave therapy, uses acoustic waves to stimulate healing in chronically injured tissues. This treatment is highly effective for conditions like Achilles tendinitis and plantar fasciitis.
Foot & Ankle Surgery
Our sports medicine services are designed for athletes of all levels. As an avid athlete himself, Dr. Curson possesses a unique understanding of sports-related foot and ankle injuries, providing specialized diagnosis and treatment to help you return to your sport safely.
General Foot Care
For conditions that do not respond to conservative care, Dr. Curson may recommend foot and ankle surgery. With extensive surgical experience, he can correct structural deformities, alleviate chronic pain, and restore function.
Diabetic Foot Care
We utilize advanced diagnostic imaging to ensure an accurate diagnosis from your very first visit. Our office is equipped with a KnovelCam portable X-ray system, allowing for precise and convenient in-office evaluation.
Geriatric Foot Care
We provide advanced laser treatment for toenail fungus, an effective solution for persistent infections. This modern technology targets the fungus living in and under the nail, clearing the infection without harming the surrounding healthy tissue.
