Foot & Ankle Fracture Care — Skip the ER Wait

Think you broke a bone in your foot or ankle?

Foot and ankle fractures are common — and they don’t always require a long emergency room wait. Family Foot & Leg Center offers in-office digital X-rays and same-day fracture evaluations from board-certified foot and ankle surgeons, so you can get diagnosed and start treatment fast.

Common types of fractures we treat

• Stress fractures — tiny cracks from repetitive impact, common in runners and athletes
• Metatarsal fractures — breaks in the long bones of the midfoot
• Ankle fractures — involving the fibula, tibia, or both, often from a twist or fall
• Heel (calcaneus) fractures — typically from a fall or high-impact landing
• Toe fractures — from stubbing or dropping something on the foot

Signs you may have a fracture

• Sudden, sharp pain after an injury or impact
• Swelling, bruising, or visible deformity
• Inability to bear weight on the foot or ankle
• Pain that doesn’t improve with rest after a few days (possible stress fracture)

How we diagnose and treat fractures

Every fracture evaluation starts with an in-office digital X-ray, so you get answers in minutes — not hours. Depending on the type and severity of the break, treatment may include:

• Casting or splinting
• A walking boot with a structured recovery timeline
• Minimally invasive surgical fixation for displaced or unstable fractures
• Custom orthotics during recovery to protect healing bone

If your fracture happened on the job, our team works directly with Federal and State Workers’ Compensation programs to get you the care you need without added stress.
