Our Approach to Treating Charcot Foot

We reduce pressure and immobilize the affected foot to prevent further joint damage.

Advanced imaging helps evaluate bone integrity, joint alignment, and the stage of progression.

Custom bracing, protective footwear, or immobilization devices may be used to support healing and prevent collapse.

Ongoing follow-up ensures structural stability and helps reduce the risk of ulcers or recurrent instability.

Frequently Asked Questions

Charcot foot is a condition often associated with diabetic neuropathy in which weakened bones and joints in the foot become unstable. Without protective sensation, minor stress can lead to fractures or joint collapse.

Not always. Many patients experience little to no pain because nerve damage reduces sensation. Swelling and warmth may be more noticeable than discomfort.

Charcot foot can become serious if not treated early. Progressive joint collapse may lead to deformity, instability, and increased risk of ulcer formation.

Treatment typically focuses on immobilization, offloading pressure, and protecting the foot from further structural damage. In advanced cases, additional interventions may be considered.

While it cannot always be prevented, early detection of neuropathy, routine foot evaluations, and prompt attention to swelling or warmth significantly reduce progression risk.
