    Reconstructive foot and ankle surgery including total ankle implants

    For those struggling with ankle pain, it is important that you seek medical attention for a proper evaluation at Stellar Foot & Ankle. Our specialists are highly trained and experienced in diagnosing and treating all facets of foot and ankle pain or injury. After a thorough examination, we can begin to craft a customized treatment plan that will take your unique needs and lifestyle into account.

    Surgery is typically never the first line of treatment for most conditions, but in some cases it may be necessary once conservative methods have been exhausted. Our ultimate goal is to help relieve your pain, improve mobility, and help you get back to the activities you enjoy. If you are a candidate for surgery, we may recommend a total ankle replacement. This procedure is preferable when the goal of surgical treatment is to not only eliminate pain in the ankle, but also to preserve the mobility of the joint.

    Like any surgery, total ankle replacement surgery can have risks involved such as infection, damage to blood vessels or nerves, and healing complications. However, these risks are relatively rare and do not often outweigh the benefits of surgery. During your consultation we will discuss your overall health, the potential risks of surgery, and whether you are a candidate for surgical intervention.

    If you are experiencing foot and ankle pain, contact our office today at (386) 427-4020 so that you can get back on your feet pain-free.

    Amniotic Allograft Injections

    Amniotic allograft injections are a type of regenerative medicine treatment derived from the amniotic membrane and fluid, typically collected during scheduled cesarean deliveries. These injections are rich in growth factors, cytokines, and extracellular matrix proteins that support healing and reduce inflammation. They are commonly used in orthopedic and podiatric medicine to treat chronic pain, tendon injuries, arthritis, and wounds, particularly in the foot and lower extremities. Unlike steroid injections, amniotic allografts aim to promote tissue repair rather than just mask symptoms. While generally considered safe, the effectiveness can vary, and more research is ongoing to fully understand their long-term benefits.

    Minimally Invasive Surgery

    Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) refers to surgical techniques that use small incisions and specialized instruments to perform procedures with minimal damage to surrounding tissues. In the context of the foot and lower extremity, MIS is commonly used to treat conditions such as bunions, hammertoes, and tendon or ligament injuries. Benefits of MIS include reduced pain, shorter recovery times, less scarring, and lower risk of infection compared to traditional open surgery. These techniques often allow patients to return to normal activities more quickly, making them an increasingly popular option in modern surgical care.

    Wound Care

    Ulcers on the foot may not always come with pain, but they are serious conditions that should be evaluated by a medical professional. The symptoms of ulcers may include drainage, or red, inflamed tissue. To properly diagnose and develop a treatment plan x-rays may be ordered.
