Plantar Fasciitis
Plantar fasciitis is a condition that causes pain in the heel and bottom of the foot. It occurs when the plantar fascia, a thick band of tissue that connects the heel bone to the toes, becomes inflamed or irritated. This can happen due to overuse, improper footwear, or other factors. Symptoms of plantar fasciitis include pain in the heel or arch of the foot, especially when taking the first steps in the morning or after long periods of rest. Treatment options for plantar fasciitis include rest, stretching exercises, orthotic inserts, and in some cases, surgery.
Achilles Tendinitis
Achilles tendinitis is a condition that occurs when the Achilles tendon, which connects the calf muscles to the heel bone, becomes inflamed. This can cause pain and stiffness in the back of the leg near the heel. It is often caused by overuse or repetitive stress on the tendon, such as from running or jumping. Treatment typically involves rest, ice, stretching, and strengthening exercises, as well as wearing supportive footwear or using orthotic devices. In severe cases, more aggressive treatments such as physical therapy, corticosteroid injections, or surgery may be necessary.
Ankle Fractures
Ankle fractures are very common injuries. In fact, over five million ankle injuries occur each year in the United States alone. Since the mid-1900s, this rate of ankle injuries has increased significantly in many industrialized countries, most likely due to growth in the number of people involved in athletics and the size of the elderly population.

When your Achilles’ tendon tears, it’s known as a rupture. Most patients say it feels like being kicked or shot behind the ankle. Achilles’ tendon ruptures cause significant pain and mobility issues.
Hammertoes
Hammertoes are common deformities that develop on your second, third, or fourth toe. Your toe bends and curls due to muscular weakness and its shape resembles a hammer. Hammertoes are painful, especially as the deformity becomes more pronounced. When left untreated, the condition can become worse and end up requiring more invasive treatment.
Bunions
With over half of American women having bunions, it’s no surprise that this foot deformity is one of the most commonly treated issues at Foot and Ankle Associates of South Florida. Bunions are deposits of bony tissue that build up on the Metatarsophalangeal joint – this is the joint that connects your big toe to your foot.
Bunions develop when your toe is pushed out of normal alignment. Your big toe puts pressure on the joint, pushing it outward and excess bony tissue develops on the joint. Bunions are painful and can disrupt your gait, leading to pain in your ankles and knees.
Bursitis, inflammation of the cushioning tissue in a joint, often develops in conjunction with a bunion. The skin covering the affected joint becomes red. The bunion also develops calluses because of increased friction when you wear shoes.
Foot & Ankle Reconstruction
A foot and ankle reconstruction is a complex surgical restoration of the integrity and functionality of your foot and ankle. Your feet and ankles include hundreds of delicate bones, muscles, tendons, and ligaments, making reconstruction painstaking work. The surgery may involve the placement of metal supports or even replacing your ankle joint with a prosthetic device.
As a board-certified foot and ankle surgeon, Dr. Iliya Beylin offers comprehensive foot and ankle reconstructions to restore functionality and strength to your feet and ankles. Your feet and ankles consist of hundreds of bones, muscles, tendons, and ligaments that require a delicate and experienced hand to repair.
