Osteoporosis
Warts
Arthritis
Preventing such a condition from arising in the first place is certainly preferable, and there are ways to do so, including managing medical conditions that create risk. Diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, and alcoholism are all diseases that should be properly managed. Making healthy lifestyle choices also helps. Regular exercise and diets rich in whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and lean proteins are particularly beneficial.
Plantar Fasciitis
This is the most common cause of heel pain for adult patients. Whenever you wake in the morning and experience a sharp, stabbing pain under your heel with your first steps, plantar fasciitis is the most likely explanation. This overuse injury comes from inflammation in a band of fibrous tissueâ€”your plantar fasciaâ€”running along the bottom of your foot. The pain is often worse after extended periods of rest, which is explained by the fact that the body has been repairing the damaged tissue, but tears are reopened when each step stresses the fascia again.
Emergency Care
Infection isnâ€™t something you should take lightly, even when it starts small. Ignored infections can get out of hand and lead to issues like gangreneâ€”particularly in high-risk people with diabetes or circulation issues. If your foot develops gangrene, you need emergency care to save your limb. Our team at The Kansas Foot Center will examine your foot to diagnose infections before they become serious, or catch gangrene if it has already developed.
Diabetic Foot Care
Those numbers clearly indicate that diabetes is already a major health issue here in the United States, and one that has the potential to become significantly worse. There is a strong link between this particular disease and foot health, so understanding diabetic foot care is rather important, especially for diabetic individuals.

Pregnancy

Endocrinologist

Diabetes Care

X-Rays

Wound Care
As the percentage of the population living with diabetes continues to climb, so too does the number of people suffering from diabetic ulcers or wounds on their feet.
Ankle Surgery
We are committed to always exploring conservative treatment before recommending foot or ankle surgery, but our doctors are both trained and experienced with performing effective surgical procedures when they are needed. If this is the treatment path we recommend, our professionals will sit down and discuss your procedure so you can make an informed decision and know what to expect.
Bunion Surgery
We can apply nonsurgical treatment to relieve symptoms and prevent the deformity from worsening, but the only way to restore the joint and toe back to their natural position is with bunion surgery.
Bunions
Bunions are fairly common toe deformities that tend to be seen more often in female patients. As a resultâ€”and combined with the fact that female footwear often has narrow toe boxes and high heelsâ€”it was widely thought that womenâ€™s shoes caused this issue. Since men and children can also develop bunions, though, this seems rather unlikely.
Gangrene
Any part of your body can suffer from an infection and end up with serious damage, and your feet are no exception. When an infection spreads, it can impact your foot function, and even contribute to tissue death. This effect is called gangrene, and itâ€™s a life-threatening condition that could lead to a limb amputation.
Ingrown Toenails
Ingrown toenails. When toenails get pressed (or just start off too curved for their own good), they may occasionally dig painfully into nearby flesh instead of grow above it.

Skin Cancer
It is important to note that rare cases of black toenails can be a dangerous form of skin cancer. When malignant melanoma develops, it is best treated at the earliest possible stage. For that reason, the best practice is to come see us at one of our three Kansas offices to have any discolored nail properly diagnosed.
Corns
Because the downward bend in the joint causes the tip of the toe to dig downward and the middle to arch upward, corns and calluses can develop at these pressure points if theyâ€™re rubbing against the inside of shoes. The problems are generally worse for a rigid hammertoe than a flexible one.
Ulcer
Due to reduced sensation, you may not detect an injury, cut, or scrape until long after the fact, and slowed circulation means that any ulcer that subsequently forms may not heal on its own. When this happens, donâ€™t try to take matters into your own handsâ€”schedule an appointment with us right away. Considering the consequences, itâ€™s not worth taking the risks.
Calluses
Eczema
In rare cases, you may have mistaken your athleteâ€™s foot for a different condition, such as eczema, which requires a different treatment course. Weâ€™ll of course be able to provide a proper diagnosis and get you the help you need.
Fungus
Worse, the same fungus that causes athleteâ€™s foot can spread to other parts of the body, including the hands, groin, or toenails. And cracked, dry, blistered skin can open the door for other complications, such as bacterial infections. So even if you think your athleteâ€™s foot â€œisnâ€™t that badâ€ right now, itâ€™s in your best interest to deal with it soon, rather than give it time and opportunity to spread.

Sports Medicine
For some people, playing sports is a way of staying fit, having fun, and being social. For other people, participating in sports is a way of life. Whether youâ€™re a weekend warrior or a professional athlete, you need to take care of your feet to be able to participate in the sports you love. Any game or athletic activity from running to hiking can put incredible strain on your lower limbs and potentially lead to sports injuries.
Physical Therapy
Professional treatment options include medication, physical therapy, night splints, custom orthotics, or, in rare cases where conservative care has not produced desired results, even surgical procedures.
Flatfoot Correction
Heel Pain
Ankle Sprain
An ankle sprain tends to happen to everyone at some point in their life. It is often treatable at home, but that doesnâ€™t mean you should always forego professional treatment. What you do when you sprain your ankle can make the difference between full recovery and problems in the future.
Back Pain
Orthotics and Prosthetic Therapy

General Podiatry
Ankle Instability
Why? Because we want to record the sprain and its circumstances, and advise you on whether you should come in for a closer examination. If a sprain does not heal properly, it can lead to chronic ankle instability, which can result in more sprains in the future. The risks of arthritis and chronic pain also rise, and we want to help ensure that doesnâ€™t happen.
Ankle Sprain
When people think about the work that podiatrists perform, it often tends to be centered on treatment and preventative measures for foot and ankle injuries or correcting abnormal gait patterns. We certainly perform such services for our patients at Kansas Foot Center, but we also are able to address a variety of skin and nail conditions as well.
Bunions Problems
No one likes lumps and bumps, especially in places where they make it difficult to do the things you enjoy without pain. Bunions are an obvious example of an unwanted foot bumps, but another you might be familiar with is Haglundâ€™s deformity, a bony enlargement that occurs at the back of the heel bone.
Calluses
Diabetic Foot Care
It is difficult to overstate the importance of diabetic foot care for our patients. Diabetes affects the body in a variety of ways, including subjecting the body to lower limb issues. Those who have diabetes know they must take certain acts to manage the disease, but it is important not to lose sight of foot care.
Flat Feet
Fungus Toenails
Thatâ€™s why weâ€™ve written this short guide to toenail fungus and the laser procedure to eliminate them. Learn more about this infection, what itâ€™s doing to your nails, and how laser treatment is growing more and more as an alternative method to traditional medications that just arenâ€™t as effective anymore. Simply fill out the request form and download the informational guide today, so you can make informed decisions about the best care for your nails.
Hammertoes
A hammertoe is a deformity that can occur in any of the smallest four toes on either foot, although itâ€™s most common on the second digit. Due to a muscle imbalance, the toe begins to bend downward at the middle joint, evoking the shape of a hammer.
Heel Spurs
Here at The Kansas Foot Center, we treat patients for a wide array of foot and ankle conditions, including heel pain. The heel is a common source of problems. Some are attributed to the soft tissues in the area, like the plantar fascia or Achilles tendon, but others can involve bone tissue, and this is the case with heel spurs.
Heel Pain
Foot Pain
Ingrown Toenails
An ingrown toenail condition is marked by the side or corner of a nail growing into the soft flesh that surrounds it. This can lead to such symptoms as pain, swelling, redness, and even a potential nail infection. Whereas this condition can technically happen to any of the toes, it is most likely to be experienced by the big toe. In the event that you notice pus or redness that spreads, or are having severe pain in the area, it is important to make an appointment with one of our Kansas offices for professional treatment as soon as possible.
Metatarsalgia
When somebody comes in complaining about foot pain, the first question weâ€™ll probably ask is, â€œwhere?â€ Feet are complicated structures (fully one quarter of the bones in your body are found from the ankles down!) and pain can occur in many different locations, for many different reasons. When the pain radiates from the ball of your feet, itâ€™s known as metatarsalgia.
Pediatric Foot Care
Our team is specially trained in pediatric foot concerns and will be sure to treat you and your loved ones with the utmost courtesy and care. To schedule your appointment in either Wichita or Newton, call today at (866) 222-5177.
Plantar Fasciitis
There are many conditions we treat here at The Kansas Foot Center that respond quite favorably to conservative care. Common issues like plantar fasciitis and stress fractures do not often require surgical intervention, but there are also some medical problems which do need surgical intervention.
Podiatric Deformities
Diabetes can create a perfect storm for wound formation. Unregulated blood sugar can damage peripheral nerves (a condition called neuropathy ), deadening your sense of feeling in the feet. It also slows your circulation, which in turn impairs your immune system and natural healing processes. Trauma due to accidents and progressive foot deformities such as bunions are more likely to occur.
