Diabetic Foot Infections
Diabetic foot infections are a serious complication of diabetes that can last weeks or even months, if not treated properly. High blood sugar levels can damage nerves and reduce blood flow, making it harder for wounds to heal and increasing the risk of infection. Symptoms may include redness, swelling, warmth, foul odor, drainage, or even blackened skin in severe cases. You may not always feel pain due to nerve damage, so regular foot checks are essential. Infections often start from small cuts, blisters, or ulcers that go unnoticed and worsen over time. A podiatrist plays a vital role in managing diabetic foot infections. They can perform wound care, remove infected tissue, prescribe antibiotics, recommend diabetic-friendly footwear, and monitor healing. In advanced cases, hospitalization or surgery may be necessary to prevent the spread of infection. If you have diabetes and are dealing with foot infections, it is suggested that you are under the care of a podiatrist.
Diabetic foot care is important in preventing foot ailments such as ulcers. If you are suffering from diabetes or have any other concerns about your feet, contact Jack A. Sasiene, DPM from Texas. Our doctor can provide the care you need to keep you pain-free and on your feet.

What Is Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease?
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease is a rare inherited disorder that affects the peripheral nerves, which are responsible for controlling muscles and relaying sensory information. This condition gradually damages the nerves, often leading to muscle weakness and decreased sensation in the feet and lower legs. People with Charcot-Marie-Tooth may develop high arches, curled toes, and an abnormal gait due to the weakening of foot and leg muscles. Over time, the condition can result in balance issues, foot deformities, and difficulty walking. Symptoms often begin in childhood or early adulthood and typically progress slowly. While there is no cure, treatment options like custom orthotics and supportive footwear can help manage discomfort and improve mobility for those living with this lifelong condition. If you have this condition, it is suggested that you are under the care of a podiatrist who can help you to manage Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease.
Some foot conditions may require additional professional care. If you have any concerns, contact Jack A. Sasiene, DPM of Texas. Our doctor can provide the care you need to keep you pain-free and on your feet.
Rare Foot Conditions
The majority of foot conditions are common and can be treated by a podiatrist. Standard diagnostic procedures are generally used to identify specific conditions and treatment can be rendered. A podiatrist also treats rare foot conditions which can be difficult to diagnose and may need extra attention and care.
There are many rare foot conditions that can affect children. Some of these can include:
- Freiberg’s disease
- Kohler’s disease
- Maffucci syndrome
Freiberg’s disease - This can be seen as a deterioration and flattening of a metatarsal bone that exists in the ball of the foot. It typically affects pre-teen and teenage girls, but can affect anyone at any age. Symptoms that can accompany this can be swelling, stiffness, and the patient may limp.
Kohler’s disease - This often targets the bone in the arch of the foot and affects younger boys. It can lead to an interruption of the blood supply which ultimately can lead to bone deterioration. The patient may limp or experience tenderness, swelling, and redness.
Maffucci syndrome - This affects the long bones in a child’s foot leading to the development of abnormal bone lesions. They are benign growths and typically develop in early childhood and the bones may be susceptible to breaking.
A podiatrist can properly diagnose and treat all types of rare foot conditions. If your child is affected by any of these symptoms or conditions, please don’t hesitate to call our office so the correct treatment method can begin.

Managing Bunions as You Age
As you age, managing bunions becomes important for maintaining mobility and comfort. A bunion is a bony bump that forms at the base of the big toe, often caused by years of pressure, wearing improper footwear, or genetic factors. Over time, the joint can become more stiff and painful, especially during walking or standing. Choosing supportive shoes with a wide toe box helps reduce pressure on the bunion and prevents further irritation. Gentle stretching and strengthening exercises can improve joint flexibility and ease discomfort. Custom orthotics may also help realign the foot and reduce stress on the affected area. If you have a bunion that is causing any discomfort, it is suggested that you consult a podiatrist who can offer effective relief and treat methods.
If you are suffering from bunions, contact Jack A. Sasiene, DPM of Texas. Our doctor can provide the care you need to keep you pain-free and on your feet.
What Is a Bunion?
A bunion is formed of swollen tissue or an enlargement of boney growth, usually located at the base joint of the toe that connects to the foot. The swelling occurs due to the bones in the big toe shifting inward, which impacts the other toes of the foot. This causes the area around the base of the big toe to become inflamed and painful.
Why Do Bunions Form?
Genetics – Susceptibility to bunions are often hereditary
Stress on the feet – Poorly fitted and uncomfortable footwear that places stress on feet, such as heels, can worsen existing bunions
How Are Bunions Diagnosed?
Doctors often perform two tests – blood tests and x-rays – when trying to diagnose bunions, especially in the early stages of development. Blood tests help determine if the foot pain is being caused by something else, such as arthritis, while x-rays provide a clear picture of your bone structure to your doctor.
How Are Bunions Treated?
- Refrain from wearing heels or similar shoes that cause discomfort
- Select wider shoes that can provide more comfort and reduce pain
- Anti-inflammatory and pain management drugs
- Orthotics or foot inserts
- Surgery

How the Foot and Ankle Work Together to Keep You Moving
The foot and ankle are designed to support your body and allow for smooth, efficient movement. The ankle joint connects the leg to the foot and acts like a hinge, letting your foot move up and down. Below that, the subtalar joint helps with side-to-side motion, important for balance on uneven surfaces. The foot itself has three parts, the hindfoot, midfoot, and forefoot, that work together to absorb shock, adapt to the ground, and push the body forward. Arches in the foot help with weight distribution and flexibility. Muscles, tendons, and ligaments provide strength and control, keeping the foot stable as you walk or run. When everything works properly, your steps feel natural and balanced. If you notice pain, stiffness, or changes in the way you walk, it is suggested that you see a podiatrist for a diagnosis and appropriate treatment.
If you have any concerns about your feet, contact Jack A. Sasiene, DPM from Texas. Our doctor can provide the care you need to keep you pain-free and on your feet.
Biomechanics in Podiatry
Podiatric biomechanics is a particular sector of specialty podiatry with licensed practitioners who are trained to diagnose and treat conditions affecting the foot, ankle and lower leg. Biomechanics deals with the forces that act against the body, causing an interference with the biological structures. It focuses on the movement of the ankle, the foot and the forces that interact with them.
A History of Biomechanics
- Biomechanics dates back to the BC era in Egypt where evidence of professional foot care has been recorded.
- In 1974, biomechanics gained a higher profile from the studies of Merton Root, who claimed that by changing or controlling the forces between the ankle and the foot, corrections or conditions could be implemented to gain strength and coordination in the area.
Modern technological improvements are based on past theories and therapeutic processes that provide a better understanding of podiatric concepts for biomechanics. Computers can provide accurate information about the forces and patterns of the feet and lower legs.
Understanding biomechanics of the feet can help improve and eliminate pain, stopping further stress to the foot.

Finding Relief From Morton’s Neuroma
Morton’s neuroma is a thickening of nerve tissue between the toes, often causing burning, tingling, or a sensation of walking on a pebble. It usually develops from repetitive stress, wearing tight shoes, or abnormal foot mechanics. Treatment focuses on relieving pressure on the affected nerve. Padding, shoe modifications, and custom orthotics are often the first steps, helping to improve foot alignment and reduce irritation. Anti-inflammatory medications or corticosteroid injections may ease pain and swelling. In more persistent cases, alcohol sclerosing injections can shrink the neuroma over time. If conservative treatments do not provide relief, surgical removal of the neuroma may be considered. Early care typically leads to better outcomes and prevents worsening symptoms. If you are experiencing discomfort between your toes or unusual sensations while walking, it is suggested that you see a podiatrist for a diagnosis and appropriate treatment.
Morton’s neuroma is a very uncomfortable condition to live with. If you think you have Morton’s neuroma, contact Jack A. Sasiene, DPM of Texas. Our doctor will attend to all of your foot care needs and answer any of your related questions.
Morton’s Neuroma
Morton's neuroma is a painful foot condition that commonly affects the areas between the second and third or third and fourth toe, although other areas of the foot are also susceptible. Morton’s neuroma is caused by an inflamed nerve in the foot that is being squeezed and aggravated by surrounding bones.
What Increases the Chances of Having Morton’s Neuroma?
- Ill-fitting high heels or shoes that add pressure to the toe or foot
- Jogging, running or any sport that involves constant impact to the foot
- Flat feet, bunions, and any other foot deformities
Morton’s neuroma is a very treatable condition. Orthotics and shoe inserts can often be used to alleviate the pain on the forefront of the feet. In more severe cases, corticosteroids can also be prescribed. In order to figure out the best treatment for your neuroma, it’s recommended to seek the care of a podiatrist who can diagnose your condition and provide different treatment options.

Relieving Heel Pain From Plantar Fasciitis
Plantar fasciitis is one of the most common causes of heel pain, often felt as a sharp or stabbing sensation with the first steps in the morning or after rest. It results from inflammation of the plantar fascia, the thick band of tissue that supports the arch and connects the heel to the toes. Diagnosis begins with a podiatrist reviewing your symptoms and medical history, followed by a physical exam to check for tenderness and tightness along the bottom of the foot. Imaging such as X-rays may be used to rule out other causes. Treatment typically includes rest, stretching exercises, wearing supportive footwear, or custom orthotics. In more persistent cases, targeted exercises, night splints, or anti-inflammatory treatments may be recommended. Addressing plantar fasciitis early helps prevent chronic pain or altered walking patterns. If heel pain is interfering with your daily life, it is suggested that you see a podiatrist.
Plantar fasciitis can be very painful and inconvenient. If you are experiencing heel pain or symptoms of plantar fasciitis, contact Jack A. Sasiene, DPM from Texas. Our doctor can provide the care you need to keep you pain-free and on your feet.
What Is Plantar Fasciitis?
Plantar fasciitis is the inflammation of the thick band of tissue that runs along the bottom of your foot, known as the plantar fascia, and causes mild to severe heel pain.
What Causes Plantar Fasciitis?
- Excessive running
- Non-supportive shoes
- Overpronation
- Repeated stretching and tearing of the plantar fascia
How Can It Be Treated?
- Conservative measures – anti-inflammatories, ice packs, stretching exercises, physical therapy, orthotic devices
- Shockwave therapy – sound waves are sent to the affected area to facilitate healing and are usually used for chronic cases of plantar fasciitis
- Surgery – usually only used as a last resort when all else fails. The plantar fascia can be surgically detached from the heel
While very treatable, plantar fasciitis is definitely not something that should be ignored. Especially in severe cases, speaking to your doctor right away is highly recommended to avoid complications and severe heel pain. Your podiatrist can work with you to provide the appropriate treatment options tailored to your condition.

Keeping Teachers on Their Feet Comfortably
Spending long hours standing in the classroom can take a toll on a teacher’s feet, legs, and lower back. Over time, the strain from hard floors and constant movement may lead to fatigue, soreness, or even more serious issues like plantar fasciitis or joint pain. Choosing supportive shoes with proper cushioning and arch support is a good place to start, but there are other helpful habits. Alternating between sitting and standing when possible, using a cushioned mat at a standing desk or podium, and stretching throughout the day can all ease pressure and improve circulation. Paying attention to posture and weight distribution also helps reduce tension. Even minor adjustments in daily routine can lead to noticeable relief and long-term comfort. If pain persists or becomes more intense, it is suggested that you see a podiatrist for additional tips on how to relieve foot pain.
While working on the feet, it is important to take the proper care of them. For more information about working on your feet, contact Jack A. Sasiene, DPM from Texas. Our doctor will treat your foot and ankle needs.

Protecting Your Feet if You Have Diabetes
If you have diabetes, taking care of your feet is essential. High blood sugar can damage nerves, causing numbness and reducing blood flow, making it harder for even small cuts or blisters to heal. This increases the risk of serious complications, including infections and ulcers, which can lead to limb loss, if not properly managed. Daily foot care is one of the best ways to prevent problems. Inspect your feet each day for cuts, redness, swelling, or signs of infection. Keep your feet clean, moisturized, and always wear shoes to protect against injury. Regular trimming of toenails, properly fitting footwear, and managing your blood sugar are also key to keeping your feet healthy. Even without symptoms, people with diabetes benefit from regular foot exams. If you are part of this population, it is suggested that you schedule an appointment with a podiatrist for a comprehensive foot evaluation and personalized care plan to help prevent complications.

How to Manage an Ingrown Toenail
Ingrown toenails occur when the edges of the nail grow into the surrounding skin, causing pain, redness, and swelling. The area may become tender, and in some cases, it can become infected, leading to pus or an increased risk of complications. The primary causes of ingrown toenails include improper nail trimming, wearing tight shoes, or having naturally curved nails. This condition often results in sharp, throbbing pain, especially when pressure is applied, such as while walking or wearing shoes. A podiatrist can help by gently lifting the ingrown nail or, in more severe cases, removing part of the nail. This type of doctor may also recommend methods to prevent recurrence, such as proper nail care and footwear adjustments. If you are experiencing painful ingrown toenails, it is suggested that you schedule an appointment with a podiatrist.
Ingrown toenails may initially present themselves as a minor discomfort, but they may progress into an infection in the skin without proper treatment. For more information about ingrown toenails, contact Jack A. Sasiene, DPM of Texas. Our doctor can provide the care you need to keep you pain-free and on your feet.
Ingrown Toenails
Ingrown toenails are caused when the corner or side of a toenail grows into the soft flesh surrounding it. They often result in redness, swelling, pain, and in some cases, infection. This condition typically affects the big toe and may recur if it is not treated properly.
Causes
- Improper toenail trimming
- Genetics
- Improper shoe fitting
- Injury from pedicures or nail picking
- Abnormal gait
- Poor hygiene
You are more likely to develop an ingrown toenail if you are obese, have diabetes, arthritis, or have any fungal infection in your nails. Additionally, people who have foot or toe deformities are at a higher risk of developing an ingrown toenail.
Symptoms
Some symptoms of ingrown toenails are redness, swelling, and pain. In rare cases, there may be a yellowish drainage coming from the nail.
Treatment
Ignoring an ingrown toenail can have serious complications. Infections of the nail border can progress to a deeper soft-tissue infection, which can then turn into a bone infection. You should always speak with your podiatrist if you suspect you have an ingrown toenail, especially if you have diabetes or poor circulation.

How Gait Disorders in Seniors Impact Their Feet
Gait disorders in the elderly significantly affect the feet, leading to discomfort, instability, and a higher risk of falls. These conditions often result from musculoskeletal issues, neurological disorders, or chronic diseases, such as arthritis and diabetes. Weakness in the foot muscles, joint stiffness, and loss of sensation contribute to unsteady movement, increasing the likelihood of injuries. Pain and deformities like bunions or hammertoes further disrupt balance, making walking difficult. Reduced mobility leads to a loss of freedom and independence, affecting mental well-being and overall quality of life. Fear of falling may cause seniors to limit their activities, resulting in muscle weakness and further instability. If you are elderly or caring for an elderly individual and notice a change in the feet or walking patterns, it is suggested that you consult a podiatrist who can offer corrective treatment and proper foot health guidance.
Proper foot care is something many older adults forget to consider. If you have any concerns about your feet and ankles, contact Jack A. Sasiene, DPM from Texas. Our doctor can provide the care you need to keep you pain-free and on your feet.
The Elderly and Their Feet
As we age we start to notice many changes in our body, but the elder population may not notice them right away. Medical conditions may prevent the elderly to take notice of their foot health right away. Poor vision is a lead contributor to not taking action for the elderly.
Common Conditions
- Neuropathy – can reduce feeling in the feet and can hide many life-threatening medical conditions.
- Reduced flexibility – prevents the ability of proper toenail trimming, and foot cleaning. If left untreated, it may lead to further medical issues.
- Foot sores – amongst the older population can be serious before they are discovered. Some of the problematic conditions they may face are:
- Gouging toenails affecting nearby toe
- Shoes that don’t fit properly
- Pressure sores
- Loss of circulation in legs & feet
- Edema & swelling of feet and ankles
Susceptible Infections
Diabetes and poor circulation can cause general loss of sensitivity over the years, turning a simple cut into a serious issue.

Understanding Venous Ulcers and Their Impact on Lower Limbs
Venous ulcers are slow-healing wounds caused by poor circulation in the veins, typically in the lower legs and ankles. They develop when blood pools due to faulty valves, leading to increased pressure and skin breakdown. These ulcers often appear as shallow, irregular sores with discoloration, swelling, and discomfort. Individuals at higher risk include those with varicose veins, deep vein thrombosis, DVT, obesity, or a history of leg injuries. People who stand or sit for prolonged periods may also develop these chronic wounds. Venous ulcers directly affect the feet and ankles by causing swelling, skin changes, and persistent wounds prone to infection. Without proper care, complications may arise. Compression therapy, wound management, and lifestyle changes help improve healing. If you have venous ulcers, it is strongly suggested that you include a podiatrist on your healthcare team for effective treatment and prevention.
Wound care is an important part in dealing with diabetes. If you have diabetes and a foot wound or would like more information about wound care for diabetics, consult with Jack A. Sasiene, DPM from Texas. Our doctor will assess your condition and provide you with quality foot and ankle treatment.
What Is Wound Care?
Wound care is the practice of taking proper care of a wound. This can range from the smallest to the largest of wounds. While everyone can benefit from proper wound care, it is much more important for diabetics. Diabetics often suffer from poor blood circulation which causes wounds to heal much slower than they would in a non-diabetic.
What Is the Importance of Wound Care?
While it may not seem apparent with small ulcers on the foot, for diabetics, any size ulcer can become infected. Diabetics often also suffer from neuropathy, or nerve loss. This means they might not even feel when they have an ulcer on their foot. If the wound becomes severely infected, amputation may be necessary. Therefore, it is of the upmost importance to properly care for any and all foot wounds.
How to Care for Wounds
The best way to care for foot wounds is to prevent them. For diabetics, this means daily inspections of the feet for any signs of abnormalities or ulcers. It is also recommended to see a podiatrist several times a year for a foot inspection. If you do have an ulcer, run the wound under water to clear dirt from the wound; then apply antibiotic ointment to the wound and cover with a bandage. Bandages should be changed daily and keeping pressure off the wound is smart. It is advised to see a podiatrist, who can keep an eye on it.
