Here are answers to some common questions about receiving Podiatric care with Dr. Rosado:
- What is the difference between a Podiatrist and an Orthopedic Surgeon?
- Dr. Rosado is a podiatrist (DPM), specializing in the medical and surgical care of the foot and ankle. Orthopedic surgeons (MD/DO) treat the entire musculoskeletal system, but some may have additional fellowship training in foot and ankle care. Dr. Rosado's entire training focuses on the foot and ankle.
- Do I need a referral to see a Podiatrist?
- To see Dr. Rosado, 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. Call your insurance company to confirm your plan's specific requirements.
- Do all bunions require surgery?
- Not at all. Many bunions can be managed without surgery. Dr. Rosado 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.
- What's the best way to treat an ingrown toenail?
- Dr. Rosado advises against attempting to treat an ingrown toenail at home. DIY procedures can worsen the problem or lead to infection. She can perform a safe, in-office procedure to remove the affected nail border and provide lasting relief, or permanently remove a portion of the nail root for recurring issues.
- What are custom orthotics and how are they different from store-bought insoles?
- Custom orthotics, prescribed by Dr. Rosado, are medical devices made from a precise mold of your feet. They are designed to correct specific biomechanical issues and provide support exactly where it's needed, unlike generic, cushioned store-bought insoles.
- What causes heel pain, and how do you treat it?
- The most common cause of heel pain is plantar fasciitis, an inflammation of the thick band of tissue on the bottom of the foot. Dr. Rosado typically 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 quite common in young children and often resolves on its own. However, if your child's in-toeing is severe, persistent, or causing tripping, Dr. Rosado can evaluate their gait and bone structure to determine if any intervention is necessary, such as stretching or special footwear.
- I have diabetes. Why is it so important for me to see a podiatrist?
- Dr. Rosado emphasizes the critical role of podiatry in diabetes care. Diabetes can cause nerve damage and poor circulation, making even minor foot issues serious. Regular check-ups are essential for preventing complications, managing foot health, and avoiding amputations.
