Foot Surgery
The foot is important to everyday activities and sporting activities. It is a complex structure containing many bones, joints, muscle tendons and nerves and is used in walking, running, jumping and twisting. Injuries can be caused from direct trauma, repetitive overuse or poor foot posture. Surgery is sometimes the best option to treat the problem.
