- Ankle Fracture: Podiatrists are foot and ankle specialists who expertly diagnose and treat ankle fractures, offering a range of treatment options depending on the severity of the break.

- Rupture of Achilles Tendon: A complete or partial tear in the back of your ankle, the Achilles tendon, is a serious injury requiring the expert care of a podiatrist for diagnosis and treatment.
- Foot Infection: Podiatrists help manage foot infections by identifying the cause (bacteria, fungus, etc.) and prescribing appropriate antibiotics or antifungal medications.
- Foot Conditions: Foot conditions, such as ingrown toenails, heel spurs, or plantar fasciitis, can be effectively diagnosed and treated by a podiatrist to improve your comfort and mobility.
- Posterior Tibial Tendonitis: If you have pain and swelling along the inside of your ankle and arch, you might have posterior tibial tendonitis; a podiatrist diagnoses this condition and develops a treatment plan to reduce pain and improve function.

- Achilles Tendinitis: Achilles tendinitis causes pain and stiffness in the back of the ankle, and your podiatrist can provide treatment options including medication, stretches, and possibly surgery.
- Nail and Nail Bed Infection: Podiatrists specialize in foot and nail health, helping you manage infections in your nails and nail beds through various methods, from topical creams to surgical removal.
- Bunion: If you have a bunion, a painful bony bump at the base of your big toe, seeing a podiatrist is important to get proper diagnosis and treatment, ranging from conservative options to surgery.

Here are answers to some common questions about receiving Podiatric care with Dr. Hussain:
- What is the difference between a Podiatrist and an Orthopedic Surgeon?
- Dr. Hussain is a podiatrist (DPM), specializing in the medical and surgical care of the foot and ankle. An orthopedic surgeon (MD/DO) treats the entire musculoskeletal system, and while some may have a foot and ankle fellowship, a podiatrist's training is dedicated solely to the foot and ankle.
- Do I need a referral to see a Podiatrist?
- To see Dr. Hussain, you may not need a referral. Many insurance plans, like PPOs, allow direct appointments. However, some plans, such as HMOs, require a referral from your primary care physician. Please call your insurance provider to confirm your specific plan's requirements.
- Do all bunions require surgery?
- Not at all. Many bunions can be managed without surgery. Dr. Hussain focuses first on conservative treatments to relieve pain and pressure, such as recommending wider shoes, padding, and custom orthotics. Surgery is typically reserved for cases where pain is severe and significantly limits daily activities.
- I have diabetes. Why is it so important for me to see a podiatrist?
- Dr. Hussain emphasizes the critical role of podiatry in diabetes care. Diabetes can cause nerve damage and poor circulation, making even minor foot injuries serious. Regular check-ups are essential for preventing complications, managing foot health, and avoiding amputations.
- What causes heel pain, and how do you treat it?
- Dr. Hussain typically finds that plantar fasciitis, inflammation of the thick band of tissue on the bottom of the foot, is the most frequent cause of heel pain. He usually starts with conservative treatments like stretching, icing, supportive shoes, and custom orthotics. Other options are available if these methods don't provide relief.
- My child's feet point inward when they walk. Is this a problem?
- In-toeing is common in young children and often resolves on its own. However, if your child's in-toeing is severe, persistent, or causing tripping, Dr. Hussain can evaluate their gait and bone structure to determine if any intervention is needed. He can assess if stretching or special footwear is necessary.
- What's the best way to treat an ingrown toenail?
- Dr. Hussain advises against attempting to treat an ingrown toenail at home. DIY procedures can worsen the problem or lead to infection. A podiatrist can perform a safe, in-office procedure to remove the ingrown nail border and provide lasting relief. For recurring issues, a portion of the nail root can be permanently removed.
- What are custom orthotics and how are they different from store-bought insoles?
- Custom orthotics, prescribed by Dr. Hussain, are medical devices made from a precise mold of your feet. They are designed to correct specific biomechanical issues and provide support where it's needed most, unlike generic, cushioned store-bought insoles.
