Sports Injuries

SPORTSMED·SA podiatrists are passionate about sport. The foot and lower leg play a major role in many sports injuries. We have a vast knowledge of most sport injuries and are experienced in treating sport specific conditions.

The Adult Foot

Pain in the foot or lower leg is one of the major problems limiting activity as we age. The podiatrists at SPORTSMED·SA can investigate the most effective management plan to get you back on your feet and keep you as active as possible.

The Adolescent Foot

Specific foot and leg problems can develop in active and rapidly growing adolescents. With the heavy demand they place on their bodies, we carefully monitor and manage their progress to ensure their feet aren’t compromised as they move into adulthood.

Paediatrics

Children’s feet are different from those of adults. We understand this and employ specific diagnostic and treatment options.

General Foot Problems

General day-to-day foot concerns such as skin and nail problems, including ingrown toenails, are important and deserve special attention. With careful management, we aim to keep these people in a pain free state.

Work Injuries

Injuries suffered through work can be debilitating. Our podiatrists can help you recover and return to work as soon as possible. We will give you advice on choosing the best shoes for your job.

Specific Conditions and Complaints
