The Foot Practice - Understanding and Treating Cavus Feet

Introduction

Welcome to The Foot Practice, a premier podiatry clinic offering top-notch foot care services. Our highly experienced team of podiatrists is dedicated to helping individuals with various foot conditions, including cavus feet.

What Are Cavus Feet?

Cavus feet, also known as high arches, is a foot condition where the arch of the foot is significantly higher than normal. This condition can affect one or both feet and may lead to various discomforts and complications if left untreated.

Causes of Cavus Feet

Cavus feet can be caused by a variety of factors, including:

• Neurological conditions such as cerebral palsy or Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease
• Muscular dystrophy
• Spinal cord tumors
• Inherited or genetic factors
• Foot injuries
• Imbalances in muscle strength

The Foot Practice Approach

At The Foot Practice, we understand the impact cavus feet can have on your daily life. Our skilled podiatrists employ a multi-faceted approach to effectively diagnose and treat this condition.

1. Thorough Assessment

Our podiatrists will conduct a comprehensive examination of your feet, taking into account your medical history and any related symptoms. This assessment helps us understand the root cause of your cavus feet and determine the best course of treatment.

2. Customized Treatment Plans

Each individual's foot condition is unique, which is why we tailor treatment plans to suit your specific needs. Our podiatrists will discuss the available options and work closely with you to develop a plan that promotes optimal foot health and functionality.

3. Non-Surgical Interventions

In many cases, non-surgical interventions can effectively manage cavus feet. Our podiatrists may recommend:

• Orthotic devices: Custom-made shoe inserts that provide additional support and correct foot alignment.
• Physical therapy: Targeted exercises to strengthen weakened muscles and improve overall foot stability.
• Bracing: Specialized ankle-foot orthoses that help stabilize the foot and promote proper alignment.

4. Surgical Options

If conservative treatments fail to alleviate your symptoms, surgery might be considered. Our podiatrists are skilled in various surgical techniques aimed at correcting the underlying anatomical abnormalities causing cavus feet.
