This is followed by a detailed clinical examination with a movement check to determine the exact extent of the functional impairment. In many cases we use what are known as imaging procedures; these are helpful to consolidate the diagnosis. Ultrasound (sonography), x-rays, magnetic resonance imaging (MRT) or computed tomography (CT) are available.

The selection of the procedure best suited to the patient\u2019s condition occurs during a thorough consultation, a physical examination and analysis of X-Ray images.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"uppercase\"><strong>FAQs:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>When is the best time to have bunion surgery?<\/strong> <br>Bunions have the tendency to continually deteriorate once they have developed. While a slightly misaligned toe can be corrected without surgical intervention, more serious cases will continue to reinforce the torsion and misalignment of the toe.

Hereditary predisposition is a cause along with obesity or poorly fitting shoes. In rare cares the deformity is caused by an injury or a neurological disorder. Most types of foot disorders usually occur in conjunction with bunions or splayfoot. The transverse arch of the foot is lowered, therefore changing the directional pull of the foot muscles and tendons.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"uppercase\"><strong>Symptoms:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The following symptoms are typical in cases of toe deformations: painful pressure marks on the upper side of the toe joints, overexertion of the muscles and tendons of the foot, aesthetic impairment due to the widening of the forefoot and painful changes in the area of the mid-foot area, at the sole of the foot and calluses at the sole of the forefoot. In cases of intense foot pain, as well as for cosmetic reasons, surgery is an option for dealing with hammer toes and claw toes. You can find more information on exactly what these operations will entail on this page. Procedures to treat claw toes and hammer toes are viewed medically and surgically as unproblematic procedures that greatly improve patients\u2019 quality of life and help to reduce pain.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignwide\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading uppercase has-ueberschrift-color has-text-color\" id=\"hallux-rigidus\">Hallux rigidus (stiff big toe)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"uppercase\"><strong>Causes &amp; Symptoms:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hallux rigidus is a condition of the metatarsophalangeal joint that can have a number of causes.

Learn more about the typical symptoms of Hallux rigidus here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The typical complaints associated with osteoarthritis of the big toe are: restricted movement while walking, pain at the metatarsophalangeal joint (joint at base of big toe), visible swelling and discolouration in the affected area, problems fitting into shoes and increase in pain in cold weather.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"uppercase\"><strong>Treatment:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Different treatments are recommended based on the stage of the condition. During the initial stage you will be able to relieve your foot pain with special shoe insoles and orthopaedic shoes. In addition, a physical therapy treatment is recommended. Advanced stiffness will be treated with anti-inflammatory drugs and other injections. In the context of surgery, bone ablation or a reinforcement of the big toe can be carried out. A prosthetic joint could also be used. In each case the patient will be able to walk again without pain post treatment. Osteoarthritis of the big toe can be detected using an x-ray.

Surgical treatment must be carried out immediately. The pain will only get worse and, if left untreated, total degeneration of the shoulder joint can occur. Early treatment is essential because there is currently no prosthetic joint that can accurately mimic the shoulder\u2019s movement, and you will therefore never recover completely if your shoulder joint becomes damaged beyond repair. With early detection, the ruptured tendons can be sutured back together. Partial tears can also be treated non-surgically, using orthopaedic devices that immobilise the shoulder.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignwide\" id=\"instability\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading uppercase has-ueberschrift-color has-text-color\" id=\"mortons-neuroma\">Morton\u00b4s neuroma and metatarsal pain<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"uppercase\"><strong>Causes &amp; Symptoms:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The typical symptoms of Morton\u2019s neuroma are burning or stabbing metatarsal pain, usually noticed when wearing shoes. This foot pain may radiate to the toes and cause problems when walking. Morton\u2019s neuroma is almost always caused by the splayfoot condition. The constant mechanical stimulus to the plantar nerves causes damage and thus the resulting proliferation of extra nerves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This benign type of tumour can be located by palpating the affected area near the metatarsal heads. Larger growths can be discovered using ultra-sound. An x-ray may be used to rule out other possible causes of the foot pain.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"uppercase\"><strong>Treatment:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Treatment of Morton\u2019s neuroma is aimed primarily at reducing pressure on the plantar nerves. Orthopaedic insoles may be used to support the transverse arch of the foot and provide for rapid improvement. Depending on the stage of the condition, injections, cold therapy, medication, ultra-sound and other measures may be beneficial for the recovery process. Relieving pressure on the nerve can also be completed through surgical procedures. Alternatively, diseased tissue and nerve endings can be removed by other surgical techniques.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignwide\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading uppercase has-ueberschrift-color has-text-color\" id=\"heel-spur\">Heel spur and haglund deformity<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"uppercase\"><strong>Causes &amp; Symptoms:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A lower heel spur is a calcification of the underside of the heel bone in the ancillary area of the small foot muscles. Through poor footwear or overuse the plantar tendon becomes inflamed and causes stabbing pains around the heel area, which can be very severe. Affected patients begin to limp in order to reduce the pain. If a patient is affected by these symptoms, each case should be carefully examined and investigated to find the cause.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A Haglund\u2019s deformity occurs much less frequently than a lower heel spur. Those who are affected by this type of condition experience pain in the area of the Achilles tendon. This condition is usually characterised by a visible and palpable deformity on the back of the foot and if left untreated, it can turn into chronic bursitis. Other than being diagnosed by palpation, an x-ray or ultrasound can confirm an accurate diagnosis. A complete measurement of the foot and pressure examination allows for further insight into the nature of each individual occurrence of this condition.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"uppercase\"><strong>Treatment:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After an initial heel spur diagnosis the first course of treatment includes the use of orthopaedic devices that will correct the position of the injured foot. This includes specially cushioned shoes that raise the heel and relieve pressure on the painful area. If this is not enough there are further treatment options that can be employed: extracorporeal shock wave therapy, cold therapy, botox treatment to help relieve pressure on the tendon or introduction of medication under the skin via ultrasound or electro-therapy. In the case of a heel spur that cannot be brought under control by these methods, it is possible to undergo endoscopic surgery to remove the spur.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignwide\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading uppercase has-ueberschrift-color has-text-color\" id=\"achilles-tendon\">Achilles tendon conditions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"uppercase\"><strong>Causes &amp; <meta charset=\"utf-8\"><strong>Symptoms<\/strong>:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When walking, running or jumping, each individual step exerts force on your tendon in amounts greater than your body weight. When there is too much stress on the tendon, a tear or rupture can occur in the tendon. It is possible that this sort of injury is the result of years of overworking the tendon or incorrectly exerting stress on it. Those most affected by this are usually physically active males, between 30 and 50 years of age.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"uppercase\"><strong>Treatment:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are two treatment methods to choose from in the case of an Achilles tendon tear. The conservative treatment route consists of stabilising the foot in the position of least resistance so that the tendon remains relaxed and the torn part can grow back together. A complete recovery is possible in six to eight weeks. The surgical treatment is common in younger, more athletic patients. In this type of operation the skin is cut open and the two ends of the tendon are sewn back together. With the help of a cast, the leg and foot will be immobilised in the equinus position (with the foot bent downward at the ankle), allowing for the tendon to heal without stress. Every two weeks, the cast will be redone and repositioned to account for progress made in the treatment. The approximately 6 to 8 weeks of treatment are accompanied by physical therapy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignwide\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading uppercase has-ueberschrift-color has-text-color\" id=\"stress-fracture\">Stress fracture<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"uppercase\"><strong>Symptoms &amp; Diagnosis:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>pain and swelling, along with the inability to put weight on one\u2019s foot, are just some of the many symptoms of a stress fracture. Stress fractures, specifically those in the foot, are very common among joggers. The diagnosis of a stress fracture is not always easy. Much of the time, such a fracture is only visible on an x-ray weeks after the problem begins. With the help of an MRI a stress fracture can be diagnosed earlier, allowing for treatment to begin as soon as possible.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"uppercase\"><strong>Treatment:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Different treatment options are available depending on the location of the stress fracture. In all cases, though, pressure on the affected bone must be relieved. In the case of a metatarsal stress fracture, the patient will be required to wear a special orthopaedic shoe to relieve this pressure. Stress fractures of the shinbone or fibula require the bones to be immobilised for a period of 4 to 6 weeks. The goal of treatment is to allow the patient to bear weight on the affected foot again as soon as possible.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignwide\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading uppercase has-ueberschrift-color has-text-color\" id=\"flat-feet\">Pronated flat feet<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"uppercase\"><strong>Causes &amp; Symptoms:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A pronated flat foot is caused by a malfunction of the so-called posterior tibial tendon, which sometimes causes tendonitis in the foot. Injuries can also be the cause of a pronated flat foot. If the tendons malfunction, the arch will collapse. Naturally, pain accompanies this malfunction and condition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A pronated flat foot is usually only noticeable at the beginning when one looks at a footprint, as the condition does not immediately begin with pain. Shoes that are worn down on one side are generally a good indicator of this condition. Pronated flat feet that go untreated can worsen to the point where the pronation is severe and the arch is completely collapsed. Inflammation usually accompanies this severe degree of pronation. The patient will also notice an inability to walk long distances. An x-ray examination provides critical information as to the extent of the condition.

In addition, physical measures may be taken, such as ultra-sound treatments, to help improve the patient\u2019s outlook. In some cases surgery is necessary and this will prevent further deterioration of the deformity.

Splayfoot is also widely considered to lead to Morton\u2019s neuroma or to an occurrence of Tailor\u2019s bunion and should therefore be treated as early as possible. This is especially the case if the splayfoot condition is accompanied by pain.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"uppercase\"><strong>Treatment:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"splayfoot\">Treating splayfoot begins by reducing the load put on the foot in order to prevent the condition from advancing. This can be done by wearing more comfortable shoes, using special orthopaedic shoe insoles or strengthening your foot through physical therapy. Pain and inflammation will be treated by appropriate medication. Conditions that occur because of splayfoot, such as Morton\u2019s neuroma, hammer or claw toes or other conditions, all require their own course of treatment. This is something you can discuss with your orthopaedic specialist during your examination.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignwide\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns are-vertically-aligned-top rounded arzt-karte karte-right has-hellgrau-background-color has-background is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-top is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full m-0\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ortho-center.eu\/en\/dr-med-daniel-berthold\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"950\" height=\"650\" src=\"https:\/\/ortho-center.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/OrthoCenter-Team-Dr.-Daniel-Berthold.png\" alt=\"Dr. Daniel Berthold smiles at the camera, wearing a white lab coat with the name &#x2018;Priv.-Doz.
