Reasons to See a Podiatrist:

• Pain in your feet or ankles is not normal.
  
  
• Most systematic problems such as diabetes and cardiovascular problems manifest locally on the foot. If you've been diagnosed with these problems, you must visit a podiatrist regularly to prevent serious consequences such as gangrene and amputation.
  
  
• Most sports medicine problems require more than resting, icing, compression and elevation. Most of them can be treated with injections, strapping, immobilization and orthotic devices.
  
  
• Arthritis is not a single disease, it is a complex disease process that may involve more than 100 different disorders, characterized by inflammation of the cartilage and lining of the body's joints. The foot, which carries tremendous weight bearing responsibility, has 33 joints. So when one of the joints is affected by arthritis, there is no escaping the pain.
