The foot and ankle form complex joints that are involved in movement and providing stability and balance to the body. The foot and ankle consist of 26 bones, 33 joints, and many muscles, tendons, and ligaments.
The ankle joint connects the leg with the foot and is composed of three bones: the tibia, fibula, and talus. Three bony bumps present on the ends of the tibia and fibula form parts of the ankle joint:
Mr. Turab Syed specialises in both surgical and non-surgical approaches to address various foot and ankle conditions.
Ankle arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to diagnose and treat problems inside the ankle joint. Through small incisions, Mr. Syed inserts a tiny camera (arthroscope) to view the inside of the ankle and make precise surgical repairs to damaged cartilage or remove inflamed tissue.
The Achilles tendon is the largest tendon in the body, connecting the calf muscles to the heel bone. When this tendon ruptures or becomes severely damaged, surgical repair may be necessary. Mr. Syed performs both open and minimally invasive procedures to repair the Achilles tendon, allowing patients to return to their normal activities.
Bunions are bony bumps that form on the joint at the base of the big toe. When conservative treatments fail to provide relief, Mr. Syed offers various surgical procedures to correct bunions, including minimally invasive techniques that result in less pain and faster recovery times.
Plantar fasciitis is inflammation of the plantar fascia. Mr. Syed offers both non-surgical and surgical treatments including stretching exercises, orthotics, cortisone injections, and in severe cases, plantar fascia release surgery.
Mr. Syed provides expert treatment for foot and ankle fractures, from simple breaks that can be treated with casting to complex fractures requiring surgical repair. His trauma fellowship training ensures that patients receive the best possible care for these injuries.
Mr. Syed specialises in minimally invasive foot surgery techniques that use smaller incisions than traditional surgery. This results in less pain, faster healing, and reduced scarring. These techniques can be used for a variety of foot conditions, including bunions, hammertoes, and metatarsal problems.
If you're suffering from foot or ankle pain, injury, or deformity, Dr. Turab Syed offers specialized treatment options from minimally invasive procedures to advanced reconstructive surgery to help you walk comfortably and return to your daily activities.
