In observance of Wound Healing Awareness Month, we spotlight the critical need for effective foot and ankle wound care—an essential component of maintaining mobility and overall health. Feet and ankles are particularly prone to wounds due to their constant use and pressure, which can significantly impact one's quality of life, especially for those with underlying health conditions like diabetes or vascular disorders. This June, we emphasize the importance of preventive measures such as regular self-examinations, appropriate hydration, and nutritional support to enhance wound healing. We also urge everyone, particularly those at higher risk, to consult with healthcare professionals to manage any existing wounds and prevent future injuries. Let’s prioritize foot and ankle health this month and ensure that everyone has the resources and knowledge to care for their wounds effectively.

Running, a widely embraced form of exercise known for its cardiovascular benefits, unfortunately, carries the risk of causing injuries, especially to the sensitive areas of the feet and ankles.

We are a group of board-certified podiatrists specializing in sports-related foot issues, and have encountered numerous cases of foot and ankle injuries among runners, with the most frequent being:
• Ankle Sprains and Swelling
• Plantar Fasciitis
• Stress Fractures
• Achilles Tendonitis
• Bunions

Ankle Sprains
Ankle sprains are notably common in running, characterized by the foot rolling outward while the ankle twists inward, often described as a "twist" due to the opposing movements involved. Experiencing a sprained ankle can result in significant pain and swelling, with stiffness lasting for days. For those with a history of recurrent ankle sprains from running, consulting us can be crucial for determining the underlying causes and preventing future incidents.

Plantar Fasciitis
A common issue, plantar fasciitis triggers a dull or throbbing pain in the heel or arch, typically worsening in the morning and improving throughout the day.

Stress Fractures
Stress fractures are defined by minor cracks or lines appearing on the bones of the legs and feet, leading to pain and discomfort, particularly for runners who frequently run on hard surfaces like concrete.

Bunions
Bunions, though partially genetic, can affect any runner. These painful formations occur at the base joint of the big toe, and seeing us can aid in addressing this condition effectively.

Achilles Tendonitis
Named after the Greek hero Achilles, this condition affects the tendon connecting the calf muscles to the heel bone, leading to inflammation known as tendinitis. It's a chronic condition that can cause significant pain, requiring professional treatment for resolution.

Plantar Fasciitis
A common issue, plantar fasciitis triggers a dull or throbbing pain in the heel or arch, typically worsening in the morning and improving throughout the day.

Heel Spurs
Heel spurs, an extra bone growth on the heel, are a frequent complaint among athletes, causing pain that can be aggravated by physical activity.

Runners – Reach Out for Support!
Our team is dedicated to offering top-notch foot care and advice to runners. Don't let foot pain hinder your running journey. We're here to support your foot health for the long run.

Dr. Carmina Quiroga DPM and Dr. Kiera Benge-Shea DPM PGY3 were honored with winning an Aurora Award earlier this month.

Their case submission on ā€œHealing a Chronic Diabetic Wound After Infection Derived Amputationā€ was chosen as one of four grand prize winners for the Kerecis Northern Lights Workshop, which holds the annual Aurora Awards: highlighting successes in fish skin grafting as a tool to heal difficult wound cases.

This year had a record number of submissions from around the world and both doctors have the distinguished honor as winners to have the opportunity to share their case study at the Northern Lights Wound Workshop taking place in Reykjavik, Iceland this February. The Aurora Awards provides four grand prize winners with a grant for the conference and the opportunity to present on the main stage, while an additional 30 cases were selected to have their case submissions highlighted as poster submissions.

This success on a global level brings not only pride to the SSM DePaul Podiatry Residency, but also an appreciation for the caliber of the program to have the ability to be competitive at this level. Dr. Quiroga and Dr. Benge-Shea are thrilled to have been chosen and look forward to bringing this honor to Saint Louis.
