Do you experience pain in the ball of your foot? Although there are many conditions that can cause discomfort in this area, the problem often occurs when someone does not have enough natural fat pad to serve as a cushion.
Other causes include:
- Genetic bone abnormalities (such as arthritis or injuries)
- High arches or flat feet
- Hammertoes
At Indy Podiatry, we often help our patients find relief with the use of special injections. We use Restylane®, a non-silicone-based formula consisting of hyaluronic acid, which is specifically formulated to emulate your body’s own naturally produced hyaluronic acid. Restylane serves as a filler to provide cushioning to the ball of your foot allowing you to stand and walk pain free. Restylane® does not contain animal ingredients and is fast, safe and effective. Although Restylane injections are a temporary, non-permanent solution, pain relief typically lasts 6-9 months.
If you think you could benefit from Restylane® injections, please call our office today at 317-573-4250.
