Recognition & treatment of foot injuries.
Traumatic foot injuries can be isolated; however, they often occur in conjunction with other injuries. Recognizing the mechanism of injury will aid you in predicting foot-injury patterns. Thorough foot examination will help identify the injury. Proper immobilization and treatment are essential to long-term recovery.
