Orthopedic Care In Burleson, Fort Worth, & Mansfield
Ankle & Foot
Did you know that nearly a quarter of all the bones in the body are in the ankles and feet? The ankle and foot are remarkably complex, containing 26 bones, 33 joints, and over 100 muscles, tendons, and ligaments. The ankle joint, or talocrural joint, connects the tibia and fibula to the talus, allowing the foot to move up and down, while the subtalar joint between the talus and heel bone enables side-to-side motion.
The foot itself is divided into the hindfoot, midfoot, and forefoot, forming a strong yet flexible foundation. Ligaments like the lateral and deltoid ligaments stabilize the ankle, while tendons, including the Achilles, control movement. The ankle and foot support your weight and balance, enabling complex movement, but foot and ankle injuries, sprains, and fractures are common.
We provide in-depth knowledge regarding podiatric care and work together to create personalized treatment plans. Our specialty-trained ankle and foot specialists know what it takes for you to get back on your feet.
