- [Corns](https://denielfootandanklecenter.com/corns/): Corns are thickened areas on the skin’s surface, to the point of being irritating and sometimes painful\. Commonly found on the feet, corns are circular or cone\-shaped and develop where there are areas of pressure or friction, such as on the little toe when it rubs up against shoes or on the ball of your foot\.
- [Hammertoes](https://denielfootandanklecenter.com/hammertoes/): Hammertoes are painful deformities that frequently form on the second, third, or fourth toe\. The condition is often caused by an issue in foot mechanics: the person’s particular gait or the manner in which they walk, or shoes that do not comfortably fit the deformity\.  Hammertoes can be formed after wearing shoes that are too narrow or short for the foot or have excessively high heels\. Shoes that are not properly sized will force the toes into a bent position for long periods of time, causing the muscles to shorten and toes to bend into the deformity of a hammertoe\. 
- [Sports Medicine](https://denielfootandanklecenter.com/sports-medicine/): Foot and ankle injuries are common among people who participate in sports\. Several factors contribute to this\. They include failing to stretch or warm up properly, not wearing the proper type of shoe and not taping or providing other types of support for the ankle or foot\. The most common foot and ankle injuries suffered by people involved in sport are plantar fasciitis, ankle sprains and Achilles tendon damage or ruptures\. If not treated properly they can lead to permanent disability\.
- [Wound Care Specialist](https://denielfootandanklecenter.com/wound-care-houston/): Diabetics must be wary of all wounds, regardless of depth or size\. Diabetes, a chronic disease in which the body cannot properly use glucose the way it normally would, causes various complications that make wounds difficult to heal\. Nerve damage or neuropathy will cause diabetics to have trouble feeling the pain of a blister or cut until the condition has significantly worsened or become infected\. A diabetic’s weakened immune system can make even the most minor of wounds easily susceptible to infection\. Diabetics are also more prone to developing narrow, clogged arteries, and are therefore more likely to develop wounds\.
