Foot and Ankle Conditions

There's no lack of foot and ankle conditions that can keep you from living your active life to the fullest.

The fortunate news for Escondido, CA, patients is that our two board-certified podiatrists can successfully treat virtually any foot or ankle concern right here in your area.

Learn how Dr. Jason Morris and Dr. Avanti Redkar can help you make a comeback from pain, sprains, fractures, tendonitis, and so much more during a one-on-one consultation.

Our Most Commonly Treated Conditions

Plantar Fasciitis

The most common cause of heel pain, plantar fasciitis is a condition in which the ligament that extends from your heel to your toes becomes irritated. Plantar fasciitis can make walking and running extremely uncomfortable, even downright unbearable if left to progress.

We can explore treatments like orthotic inserts and stretching exercises to relieve pain and restore mobility. More advanced options include nonsurgical shockwave therapy. Surgery is always a last resort for treating plantar fasciitis.

Bunions

Is there a hard bump jutting out near the base of your big toe? You may have a bunion, a bony deformity that causes toe misalignment. This can affect your ability to walk if not addressed.

Treatment options for bunions are straightforward. Our doctors often recommend patients start with hand-made orthotics. If these do not provide relief, we can perform minimally invasive triplanar correction surgery to re-align the big toe.  

Tendonitis

Pain, stiffness, or swelling in the feet or ankles can be a sign of tendonitis, or the inflammation of a tendon. Tendons are bands of tissue that connect muscles to bone, so if inflamed, it can cause pain in the affected area every time you move.

Our Escondido doctors can diagnose the type of tendonitis you have and get to work on the most appropriate course of treatment. We may recommend a multi-pronged approach that involves physical therapy, orthotics, and prescription medicine.

Ankle Sprains

We offer a number of treatment options for ankle pain, ankle sprains, ankle fractures, and other injuries to the ankle. This joint plays a large role in fluid movement, so any injury can be incredibly debilitating. 

Dr. Morris or Dr. Redkar will assess the conditions of the bones, tendons, and ligaments of your ankle to diagnose the precise nature of your condition. Depending on the severity, they may recommend physical therapy, cortisone injections, or casting for a fracture. Surgery can also help, but it will be the last treatment option we consider. 

Ingrown Toenails

If you have an ingrown toenail, you're likely looking to get relief fast. Our doctors are ready to help. 

If at-home soaks in room-temperature water aren't relieving the inflammation, we can perform a quick and simple procedure here at our Escondido, CA, podiatry office. Dr. Redkar or Dr. Morris will carefully remove a portion of the nail border down to the root, which prevents ingrowth from occurring again. You'll be able to get back to your regular routine in just a few days.

I followed Dr. Avanti Redkar from Beverly Hills to Escondido, which is a 2-hour drive from my house. Dr. Redkar is an excellent Podiatrist who took time to examine my feet and explained the treatment and management options in detail. She and her assistant are professional and courteous. Thank you, now I have pain-free feet.
