Services We Provide at Our Las Vegas Podiatry Office
Whether you're battling persistent foot pain or dealing with diabetic neuropathy, the advanced treatments offered at Centennial Foot & Ankle are designed to alleviate your symptoms and restore your mobility. We believe that every patient deserves a tailored approach, which is why we take the time to listen to your concerns, understand your unique needs, and craft a customized treatment plan that targets the root cause of your foot or ankle condition.
Diabetic Foot Care
Diabetes can rob your feet of sensation, making even the slightest cuts or blisters go unnoticed—leaving you susceptible to infections and slow-healing wounds. As a result, even minor cuts or blisters on the feet can develop into serious diabetic foot ulcers.
Our diabetic foot care services provide personalized care and expertise to keep your feet healthy and strong, no matter what challenges diabetes may bring. Our services include:
- Regular foot examinations. Routine check-ups monitor foot health and detect any early signs of problems.
- Foot and nail care. Professional trimming and care of toenails prevent ingrown nails and infections. Treatment of corns and calluses avoids ulcers.
- Wound care. Treatment of cuts, blisters, and ulcers promotes healing and prevents infections. This includes applying dressings and specialized treatments.
- Management of foot infections. We provide diagnosis and treatment of bacterial, fungal, and other types of infections. Antibiotics or antifungal medications may be prescribed.
- Circulation and nerve function assessments. We offer testing for peripheral artery disease (PAD) and neuropathy as well as treatments to improve circulation and nerve health.
- Surgical interventions. In some cases, we might recommend surgical procedures to remove infected tissue or correct deformities.
Pediatric Foot Care
Taking proper care of your child’s feet is essential for their growth and development. Our experienced Las Vegas podiatrist employs gentle techniques and child-friendly approaches to make the treatment process comfortable and stress-free for young patients. Early intervention and proper care can prevent minor issues from escalating into more serious conditions, allowing your child to engage in physical activities without pain or discomfort. Our pediatric foot care services are designed to address common issues such as warts, ingrown toenails, flat feet, and other deformities.
Treatment for Sports Injuries
Sports injuries can range from acute traumas to chronic overuse injuries. Our skilled podiatrist can diagnose and treat conditions affecting the feet and ankles so you can recover from sports-related injuries and prevent future occurrences. Treatment for sports injuries might include:
- Custom orthotics. Custom-made orthotic devices can support and stabilize the foot and ankle, improving function and alleviating pain.
- Immobilization. Casts, braces, or splints can be used to immobilize the injured area, allowing it to heal properly.
- Taping and strapping. Applying athletic tape and straps supports injured areas and prevents further damage during activity.
- Cold and heat therapy. Applying cold packs to reduce inflammation and pain, and heat therapy can promote blood flow and healing.
- Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT). Using shockwave therapy to treat chronic conditions like plantar fasciitis and Achilles tendinitis is often beneficial.
- Medication. Prescribing anti-inflammatory medications or pain relievers can manage pain and reduce swelling.
- Injections. Administering corticosteroid or platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections can reduce inflammation and promote healing.
- Surgical interventions. Surgical procedures are sometimes recommended to repair severe injuries, such as fractures, ligament tears, or tendon ruptures.
Advanced Technology
Healthy feet are crucial for overall well-being and an active lifestyle, which is why we are committed to providing you with the latest foot and ankle solutions. Some of the advanced technology treatments offered at our office include:
- PRP therapy. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy involves injecting concentrated platelets from the patient's blood to accelerate the healing of injured tendons, ligaments, muscles, and joints.
- Laser therapy. Laser therapy uses focused light to reduce pain and inflammation, promote tissue repair, and accelerate the healing process in injured areas.
- Shockwave therapy. Extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) involves delivering acoustic waves to injured tissues to stimulate healing and reduce pain.
- UltraMIST wound therapy. UltraMIST wound therapy uses low-frequency ultrasound waves to promote healing in chronic and acute wounds by enhancing blood flow and reducing bacteria.
- Vein sclerotherapy. Vein sclerotherapy involves injecting a solution into varicose or spider veins, causing them to collapse and fade.
- Botox for hyperhidrosis. Botox injections are used to treat hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating) by blocking the nerves responsible for activating sweat glands.
- Dermal fillers for fat pad atrophy. Dermal fillers are injected into the feet to replace lost padding, providing cushioning and reducing pain associated with fat pad atrophy.
- Laser toenail services. Laser treatments target fungal infections in toenails, effectively killing the fungus and promoting healthy nail growth without the need for oral medications.
- Peripheral nerve stimulators for pain relief. Peripheral nerve stimulators are implanted devices that deliver electrical impulses to nerves, blocking pain signals and providing relief from chronic pain.
