FOOT AND ANKLE SPORTS INJURIES

Foot and ankle injuries are among the most common in sports and physically demanding work. Whether you're an athlete, weekend warrior, or factory worker, these injuries can sideline you from the activities you depend on.

Common sports and work injuries we treat:

Ankle sprains and strains
Achilles tendon injuries
Stress fractures
Turf toe and sesamoid injuries
Midfoot sprains (Lisfranc injuries)
Peroneal tendon injuries
Plantar plate tears
Metatarsal fractures

We understand that for many of our patients, getting back to work isn't optional—it's essential. That's why we offer evening appointments and work with you to develop treatment plans that minimize time away from your job.

WHY PROPER TREATMENT MATTERS

Trying to "walk it off" or ignore a foot or ankle injury can lead to chronic problems that are much harder to treat later. Improper healing can result in:

Chronic instability and repeat injuries
Arthritis development in injured joints
Compensatory injuries in knees, hips, and back
Prolonged time away from work or activities

Dr. Storts provides thorough evaluation including X-rays and advanced diagnostics to ensure accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment from the start.

OUR TREATMENT APPROACH

Dr. Storts combines traditional and advanced treatments to optimize healing:

Accurate Diagnosis: On-site X-rays and thorough physical examination
Immobilization: When needed, proper bracing, casting, or boot treatment
Regenerative Medicine: PRP and stem cell therapy to accelerate healing
Physical Therapy Guidance: Structured rehabilitation for safe return to activity
Surgical Repair: When conservative treatment isn't sufficient
