Back in the Game: Expert Care for Common Sports Injuries

July 6 2025

When you’re an athlete—or just love to stay active—the last thing you want is an injury slowing you down. Whether you’re sprinting down a field, pounding the pavement, or just keeping up with your kids, your legs and feet take the brunt of the action. At Family Foot & Leg Center, we understand how important a fast, safe recovery is.

Our board-certified podiatrists specialize in getting you back on your feet and back in the game—with expert care for the most common sports injuries.

Common Sports Injuries We Treat:

🔹 Ankle Sprains
One misstep or quick pivot can lead to a painful ankle sprain. Left untreated, it can weaken your joint and lead to long-term instability. Our team offers precise diagnosis and treatment to help you heal fully and avoid repeat injuries.

🔹 Tendonitis
Repetitive motion and overuse can inflame tendons, especially around the ankle, heel, or top of the foot. Whether it’s Achilles tendonitis or peroneal tendonitis, we target the root cause and guide you through recovery with rest, therapy, and supportive care.

🔹 Stress Fractures
These tiny cracks in the bone often start with a dull ache that worsens over time. They’re common in runners and athletes in high-impact sports. We offer in-house imaging and same-day evaluations to catch these early and create a customized treatment plan.

🔹 Shin Splints
Pain along the inner edge of your shinbone can sideline your training. With proper assessment and a combination of rest, footwear evaluation, and activity modification, we help you bounce back stronger and pain-free.
