01
Bunions
Juanetes
A painful bump at the base of the big toe that can change how the toe lines up and which shoes feel comfortable. Care ranges from footwear and padding to minimally invasive surgery for selected patients.
You might notice: a visible bump, soreness over the joint, or the big toe drifting toward the second toe.
What a first visit includes
Foot exam and history, a look at your shoes and how you walk, and X-rays when needed to see the joint alignment. Then we talk through conservative options first, and surgery only if it makes sense for you.
02
Heel Pain
Dolor de talón · fascitis plantar
That sharp ache with your first steps in the morning — or after sitting, running, or a long day on your feet. Plantar fasciitis is a common cause, but heel pain has several, and the treatment depends on which one it is.
You might notice: stabbing pain under the heel at the start of the day, soreness after activity, or tightness in the calf and arch.
What a first visit includes
Exam of the heel, arch, and Achilles, plus questions about activity, shoes, and training. Care often starts with stretching, footwear, and activity changes, with orthotics or other options when needed.
03
Ingrown Toenails
Uñas encarnadas
When the edge of a nail grows into the surrounding skin, even a sock can hurt. Quick in-office care can relieve the pressure — and guidance on trimming and footwear helps keep it from coming back.
You might notice: pain, redness, or swelling along one side of a toenail, especially the big toe.
What a first visit includes
Exam of the toe and nail, discussion of what triggered it, and in-office treatment when appropriate. You’ll leave with clear aftercare and tips to prevent recurrence. Seek care promptly if there is spreading redness or you have diabetes.
04
Achilles Tendon Pain
Dolor del tendón de Aquiles
Pain, stiffness, or swelling where the Achilles meets the heel — the tendon that powers every push-off when you walk, run, or jump. Overuse, sudden training changes, and tight calves are frequent contributors.
You might notice: stiffness first thing in the morning, pain that eases then returns during activity, or tenderness just above the heel.
What a first visit includes
Exam of the tendon and calf, gait and footwear review, and a plan built around load — what to keep doing, what to pause, and how to rebuild strength gradually. Imaging is ordered when it would change the plan.
05
Hammertoes
Dedos en martillo
When a smaller toe bends or curls at the middle joint, it can rub against shoes, form corns, and make every step a negotiation. Early care focuses on relieving pressure; some cases eventually need a surgical conversation.
You might notice: a toe that curls downward, a corn on top of the joint, or pain in shoes with a narrow toe box.
What a first visit includes
Exam of toe flexibility and alignment, footwear review, and padding or orthotic options to reduce pressure. If the toe is rigid or conservative care isn’t enough, we’ll discuss surgical options candidly.
06
Warts
Verrugas plantares
Plantar warts grow on the sole of the foot and can feel like stepping on a small stone. They’re common, stubborn, and best handled with a plan — rather than picking at them or hoping they disappear on their own.
You might notice: a rough, grainy spot on the sole, pain when walking or standing, or small black dots within the growth.
What a first visit includes
Exam to confirm it’s a wart and rule out a corn or callus, then in-office treatment options and home-care guidance — including how to avoid spreading warts to other areas or family members.
07
Flat Feet & Orthotics
Pies planos & plantillas ortopédicas
Low arches don’t always hurt — but when they do, the ache can show up in the feet, ankles, knees, or lower back. The right support, fitted to how you actually move, can change how the whole day feels.
You might notice: tired, achy feet after standing, shoes wearing unevenly, or arches that flatten when you bear weight.
What a first visit includes
Gait and arch exam, footwear review, and a discussion of off-the-shelf versus custom orthotics. Custom orthotics are recommended only when they’ll genuinely help — not as a default.
