Joe Biden Diagnosed with Stress Fracture
You may have seen in recent news that President-elect Joe Biden has fractured his foot while playing with his German Sheppard, Major. The next day he visited his orthopedist, who didn’t see the fracture initially on x-ray, but discovered a tiny fracture on two small bones in the middle of his foot after reviewing a CT scan. While the health of our future president is everyone’s concern, a hairline fracture such as this, is actually quite common. So, what exactly is a hairline fracture? A hairline fracture or a stress fracture is a tiny crack in the bone. This type of injury usually occurs in the bones of foot and lower leg from repetitive jumping or running. However, it can also occur, as in the case with Joe Biden, as a result of an injury. It has been reported that President-elect Biden had not one, but who tiny fractures “mid-foot.” …
What does obesity have to do with Podiatric Medicine?
It is that time of the year where everyone goes from sedentary to athlete, overnight. Resolutions are outstanding and we certainly are advocates of healthy, active lifestyles but we need to remind our communities (and ourselves) that feet might not be ready to take the pounding from treadmill and gym time. Depending on your demographic, a lot of your patients might be advanced in age or illness and a good way to bring in more revenue to your practice is to broaden your demographic so that you and your staff can develop a patient base that will stay with you and allow you to manage all their foot care needs for years to come. Plus, it is an opportunity to educate patients and practice preventative medicine! Metatarsalgia, is a condition which affects all ages, but because it is commonly caused by intense training, it runs rampant this time of year. While …

Limb Preservation Center: Multidisciplinary Approach
The goal of a limb preservation center (LPC) is to prevent amputations and improve quality of life. LPCs can be free-standing entities, be a part of a hospital, be a part of a practice, or be centered around an office-based lab (OBL) or an ambulatory Surgery Center (ASC). It is logical for the LPC to be centered around an OBL/ASC and wound care center, since most of the procedures required for limb preservation can be performed in the OBL/ASC and wound care center. The most common causes of limb loss are diabetic complications such as Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD), ischemia with or without infection, followed by osteomyelitis, trauma, venous disease and other minor causes like frostbite, tumor etc. Optimal care can only be realized using a comprehensive, multidisciplinary approach. Multidisciplinary Team Primary Care: It is important to make sure that the patient’s risk factors are managed. Since the most common …

Your front office is your patients’ primary touch-point for communication with your medical practice.

Simple strategies to prevent Achilles tendon rupture.
It is that time of year again to educate our weekend warriors:DO NOT ignore the signs and symptoms of a tight Achilles tendon or Achilles tendonitis (inflammation of the tendon!!). This condition affects our patients year round, but basketball season tends to send those weekend athletes into our practices in droves. The Achilles tendon connects the calf muscle to the heel bone in the back of the leg and when the calf muscles flex, like they do when we run, jump, or stand on our toes, the Achilles tendon pulls on the heel. Tightness of the Achilles tendon puts you at risk of injuring or even rupturing this tendon. The key to prevent Achilles tendon rupture is implementing a few simple strategies into your playing time. Remember, full time athletes train hard to play hard. We don’t expect you to spend hours in the gym training for a few hours …
Cam Newton has football fans asking what a Lisfranc sprain is and what the prognosis looks like.
Cam Newton is out of the game for the rest of the season and his injury has made Lisfranc sprains a household phrase. Podiatric Physicians know how tricky it can be to diagnose and treat a lisfranc sprain and there are a lot of different schools of thought as to the best course of action. What we all agree on, is that it is imperative for our athletes to take this injury seriously and not try to push through it. For sports fans to better understand what happened to Cam, here is an over view from Dr. Stephen Corey, DPM. The Lisfranc joint is the point at which the metatarsal bones (long bones leading up to the toes and ball of foot) and the tarsal bones (bones in the arch) connect in the middle of the foot. These two bones are joined by a tough band of tissue, called the …
