Foot pain isn't always caused by the foot itself—sometimes the source is the ankle. Instability, tendon inflammation, or joint issues in the ankle can alter the way you walk, placing added stress on the foot and leading to discomfort over time. This can result in pain, swelling, or fatigue that may be mistaken for a primary foot condition. Identifying the true source of the problem is key to effective treatment and long-term relief. If you are experiencing persistent foot or ankle discomfort, it may be time for a professional evaluation. Jeffrey S. Muroff, DPM, offers comprehensive assessments and personalized treatment plans to help restore proper function and keep you moving comfortably.

Nerve-related foot pain often feels different from muscle or joint pain. It may present as:

• Burning or tingling sensations
• Numbness in the toes or forefoot
• Sharp, shooting pain
• A feeling of “pins and needles”
• Increased sensitivity to touch

Common causes can include nerve compression (such as Morton’s neuroma), tarsal tunnel syndrome, diabetic neuropathy, or irritation from inflammation or injury.

Because nerve pain can worsen over time, early evaluation is important. Schedule an appointment with Dr. Jeffrey S. Muroff, DPM, today.

Your foot structure plays a major role in how you walk, absorb shock, and distribute weight. When arches are too low (flat feet) or too high (high arches), it can change alignment throughout the feet, ankles, knees, and even hips. Flat feet may lead to overpronation, heel pain, arch strain, and tendon issues. High arches, on the other hand, often place excess pressure on the heels and balls of the feet, increasing the risk of stress fractures, ankle instability, and calluses.

Understanding your foot type is key to preventing pain and choosing the right footwear or orthotics. Dr. Jeffrey S. Muroff, DPM, offers comprehensive evaluations to assess foot structure and create personalized treatment plans that support long-term comfort and mobility. Call to learn more!

A bunion is a bony bump that forms at the base of the big toe when the joint gradually shifts out of alignment. Over time, this can lead to:

• Pain and tenderness
• Swelling and redness
• Difficulty fitting into shoes
• Limited movement of the big toe

Conservative treatments—such as shoe modifications, orthotics, padding, or anti-inflammatory care—are typically recommended first. Surgery may be considered when pain persists, deformity progresses, or daily activities are significantly affected. If you or a loved one is suffering from symptoms of a bunion, contact Dr. Jeffrey S. Muroff, DPM, today!

Spring is here, and as boots make way for flats and lighter shoes, foot pain can quickly follow since many seasonal styles offer less arch support and cushioning. This can contribute to heel pain, arch strain, plantar fasciitis, and tendon irritation—especially with increased walking and activity. If you're noticing new or worsening foot discomfort, it may be time to reassess your footwear and overall foot health, and Dr. Jeffrey S. Muroff, DPM, can provide comprehensive evaluations and personalized treatment plans to help keep you comfortable and active all season long.

🦶 Toenail Changes You Shouldn't Ignore
Your toenails can reveal more about your foot health than you might think. Changes in color, shape, or texture aren't always cosmetic—they can signal an underlying issue that needs attention.

Toenail changes to watch for include:
• Thickening or crumbling nails
• Discoloration (yellow, brown, black, or white spots)
• Nails lifting or separating from the nail bed
• Pain, swelling, or redness around the nail
• Ingrown or curved nails

Some changes may be minor, but others can indicate infection, trauma, or circulation concerns. Addressing issues early helps prevent discomfort and complications. If you notice persistent toenail changes, Jeffrey S. Muroff, DPM, can evaluate the cause and recommend appropriate care.

🦶 Foot & Ankle Swelling: What Your Feet Are Trying to Tell You
Swelling in the feet or ankles isn't always just from standing too long. It can be your body’s way of signaling an underlying issue that needs attention.

Common causes of foot and ankle swelling include:
• Overuse or injury
• Inflammation of tendons or joints
• Poor circulation
• Infection
• Improper footwear or prolonged standing

Occasional swelling may improve with rest, elevation, and supportive shoes—but swelling that persists, worsens, or causes pain shouldn't be ignored. Jeffrey S. Muroff, DPM, helps identify the cause and create a treatment plan to reduce swelling, relieve discomfort, and keep you moving comfortably.

Heel pain isn't always plantar fasciitis. It can stem from several underlying issues, and getting the right diagnosis early can lead to faster relief and fewer setbacks.

Common causes of heel pain include:
• Stress fractures from repetitive impact
• Tendon irritation or inflammation
• Nerve-related pain
• Poor or unsupportive footwear

While rest, ice, stretching, and proper shoes may help ease symptoms, persistent heel pain shouldn't be ignored. If discomfort continues, Jeffrey S. Muroff, DPM, can help identify the cause and guide you toward effective treatment and long-term relief.

Did you know your feet can provide important insight into your cardiovascular health? Poor circulation, often associated with heart disease or diabetes, can reduce blood flow to the extremities, leading to numbness, tingling, cold feet, slow-healing wounds, and a higher risk of infection. When left unaddressed, these issues may progress and impact mobility and overall quality of life. Regular foot exams allow Dr. Jeffrey S. Muroff, DPM to identify early signs of circulation problems, nerve damage, and diabetic complications. Because heart health and foot health are closely connected, monitoring your feet is an essential step in protecting your long-term well-being.❤️🦶
