At Flex Foot and Ankle PLLC, Dr. Perez treats many types of arthritis affecting the foot and ankle. When you visit her office, she will perform a physical exam and typically orders X-rays, and sometimes CT scans are required to determine your bone quality and how arthritis has affected it. Taking a conservative approach, Dr. Perez treats your arthritis symptoms with a steroid injection to reduce the pain, or custom orthotics to support your feet when you walk and stand. Blood injections could also help with the inflammation and pain. Read more here. If your joint pain persists, she may suggest surgical intervention, such as joint repair, joint replacement, or joint fusion to smooth or adjust joints that are causing discomfort.
