We’re all on our feet and active… until we’re not. Pain due to foot arthritis can cause debilitating pain and greatly curtail our mobility and quality of life.

“The foot takes a lot of wear and tear. We all know that when your foot hurts, everything hurts,” says David Friscia, MD, a Diplomat of the American Board of Orthopedic Surgery and Director of the Foot and Ankle Program at Eisenhower Desert Orthopedic Center in Rancho Mirage, California.

There are several foot arthritis treatments to consider to help you maintain a satisfactory range of motion. And, above all to decrease pain and suffering from foot arthritis.

In Quick Video Tip: Foot Arthritis Treatments, Dr. Friscia discusses treatment options. These options can help people plagued by foot arthritis to control pain, stay active and stay on their feet, including:

• Common problem areas
• Conservative treatments
• Surgical options
• New surgical procedure – the Captiva implant

If you or a loved one is experiencing foot problems that are curtailing your mobility, causing pain and impacting your best quality of life, Dr. Friscia has helpful tips to help you get back in the game. Additionally, there are more videos on a range of orthopedic topics, including the popular Quick Tip Video series, available in the Orthopedic Video Library.
