Five Signs It's Time to Visit an Ankle Doctor
Ankle injuries and pain are common issues that are often overlooked until they become severe. Recognizing the signs that indicate the need for professional medical attention can prevent long-term damage and expedite recovery. Persistent Pain If you are experiencing persistent pain in your ankle that doesn't subside with rest or over-the-counter pain medication, it may be time to consult an ankle doctor.

Unfortunately, a few days later I developed a massive ingrown toenail infection, which my podiatrist attributed to my visit to the nail salon. I want everyone to know how to properly care for their feet, so I made this website.
