Metatarsalgia is a condition marked by pain and inflammation in the ball of your foot. It often occurs in the metatarsal heads - where the three middle toes meet the ball of the foot. It is a common problem which can affect the bones and joints of the metatarsals.

You may experience metatarsalgia if you're physically active and you participate in activities that involve running and jumping. In addition, you may develop metatarsalgia by wearing ill-fitting shoes. There are other causes as well.

Although generally not serious, metatarsalgia can sideline you. Fortunately, conservative treatments, such as ice and rest, can often relieve metatarsalgia symptoms. And proper footwear, along with shock-absorbing insoles or arch supports, may be all you need to prevent or minimize future problems with metatarsalgia.

At the Oakville Hospital Footcare & Orthotic Centre, our expert chiropodists can help you manage metatarsalgia.

Do you want to know more about plantar warts?

Plantar warts are caused by a virus. The virus enters the body through a break in the skin. The virus grows in a warm moist environments like public pools, locker rooms, and gyms that are used by hundreds of people. This can easily occur when you are walking bare feet in these areas. Children, especially teenagers, tend to be more susceptible to warts than adults.

Plantar wars can be painful, especially if they are on a weight-bearing location of the foot. Sometimes they are mistaken for corns or calluses, which are layers of dead skin that build up to protect the area. Warts are resistant to treatment and have a tendency to reoccur. They may also increase in size or number if left untreated. Over-the-counter foot wart treatments are usually ineffective. Generally, the more aggressive the wart treatment, the faster the wart will resolve.

To help effectively treat your warts, visit the Oakville Hospital Footcare & Orthotic Centre.

Do you have corns and calluses?

Corns and calluses are thick, hardened layers of skin that develop when your skin tries to protect itself against friction and pressure. They most often develop on the feet and toes or hands and fingers.

Most corns and calluses gradually disappear when the friction or pressure stops, although your doctor may shave the top of a callus to reduce the thickness. Properly positioned moleskin pads can help relieve pressure on a corn. Most foot doctors discourage the use of over-the-counter salicylic-acid corn remedies. When applied improperly, these corn "plasters" can create a chemical skin burn in healthy tissue around the corn and cause infections and ulcers (which is a hole through the skin) in patients with diabetes, poor circulation, or numbness in their feet. Oral antibiotics generally clear up infected corns, but pus may have to be drained through a small incision.

Visit the Oakville Hospital Footcare & Orthotic Centre to learn more about how to treat your corns and calluses.

Do you want to know more about Raynaud’s Disease?

Mild or brief changes in temperature can cause Raynaud's attacks. It’s very important to keep feet warm to prevent an attack. During a Raynaud's attack, the arteries become very narrow for a brief period. As a result, little or no blood flows to affected body parts. This may cause these areas to turn pale or white and then blue, feel numb, cold, or painful & a feeling of being pricked by pins and needles.

Raynaud's disease attacks can last less than a minute or as long as several hours. Attacks can occur daily or weekly and can often begin in one finger or toe and move to other fingers or toes. Different areas may be affected at different times.

If you want to learn more about Raynaud’s Disease, contact the Oakville Hospital Footcare & Orthotic Centre.

Did you know? Diabetes can severely affect your feet

Diabetes affects the lower limb. Poor circulation can impair the body’s ability to heal itself. Over time, diabetes can damage sensory nerves (this is known as “neuropathy”), especially in the hands and feet.

As a result, people with diabetes are less likely to feel a foot injury, such as a blister or cut. Unnoticed and untreated, even small foot injuries can quickly become infected, potentially leading to serious complications.

A skin ulcer is where an area of the skin has broken down and you can see the underlying tissue. Diabetic ulcers are a breakdown of the skin tissue on an area of the foot.

An ulcer can develop quickly and may be painful and difficult to heal. Infection is a common complication. It may be necessary to have an X-ray to determine whether there is any bone involvement when an ulcer is present.

What is compression therapy?

Medical compression therapy applies a type of elastic device on limbs or other body parts to exert a controlled pressure on them. Thereby, the device squeezes the vein walls together and improves the circulatory rate. Medical compression also helps with reduction of edema and recreates conditions beneficial for the healing of chronic inflammatory disorders.

Under medical compression, the balance in blood exchange is improved by reducing capillary leakage of fluid in the interstitial tissue. This leads to a better reduction of edema. A beneficial massaging effect of certain medical compression textiles, leading to a softening of hardened or fibrotic tissue, has been reported.

Custom Orthotics:

Custom made orthotics are basically a brace that fits into a shoe. It is designed to align the foot and ankle into the most anatomically efficient position. They look like insoles, but are bio-mechanical medical appliances that are custom made to correct your specific foot imbalance.

Custom orthotics work on your feet much like glasses work on your eyes - they reduce stress and strain on your body by bringing your feet back into proper alignment. The plastic body of the custom orthotic helps to re-align the foot by redirecting and reducing certain motion that takes place during the gait cycle.

Custom orthotics fit into your shoes as comfortably as an insole - and they have the advantage of having been made from precise imprints of your feet.
