Foot / Hand
Nature designed the foot in a highly complex and extremely powerful matter. Stable, flexible and sensitive – all at the same time. Despite its many parts, the foot is very stable and provides fast and precise feedback about where it is walking and standing.
However, hereditary stress, injuries, metabolic disorders, or persistent misuse due to weight or improper footwear can lead to deformities and disease. Some of the most common problems are misalignments of the forefoot and toes. These are not only a cosmetic disadvantage, but are also very painful.
In foot surgery, therefore, the goal is to restore natural-looking, pain-free functionality to the foot.
