Arthritis
Disorders: Bacterial and viral infections and prescription drugs can trigger the immune system to attack the joints, which may lead to rheumatoid arthritis.
Fibromyalgia
Fibromyalgia testing: Fibromyalgia can be confused with other illnesses including rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, chronic fatigue syndrome, and Lyme disease, so these and other disorders need to be ruled out. Imaging tests and nerve and muscle studies may help with this diagnosis.
Plantar Fasciitis
Medical Weight Loss
Primary Care
Although your primary care physician may be able to diagnose and treat a problem with your foot, ankle, or lower leg, it is often wise to speak with a skilled podiatrist about your issues. Many podiatric health conditions have similar symptoms as other conditions and can be easily misdiagnosed.

Endocrinologist

Diabetes Care

Ultrasound
Physical podiatric examinations and x-rays can help determine the cause of problems with feet, ankles, and lower legs. Sometimes however, these tools cannot give a clear glimpse of the issues. When these initial diagnostic tools cannot diagnose the condition, an ultrasound is used to help a doctor evaluate pain, swelling, infection, and other symptoms.
MRI
Physical examinations and X-rays are great diagnostic tools, but in some cases, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is needed to better diagnose pain, discomfort, or swelling in your feet, ankles, and lower legs. Unlike conventional X-rays or CAT scans, MRI scans do not use radiation, which makes this a valuable tool for patients who cannot undergo radiation-related tests. Also, MRIs are better at detecting soft-tissue conditions than X-rays.
X-Rays
Computed Tomography
If you are experiencing foot or ankle pain and your podiatrist cannot determine the cause through a physical examination, you may need a computerized axial tomography scan or CAT scan. (This test is also called a computer tomography or CT scan.)
Chemotherapy
If you have been diagnosed with Kaposi's Sarcoma or are experiencing symptoms of the disease, contact your doctor right away to obtain the treatment you need. With proper care by an experienced healthcare provider, your disease can be managed effectively.

Wound Care
He is a past President of The Zone Three Illinois Podiatry Society and past member of the Board of the Illinois Podiatry Society. He was the first Chairman of the Department of Podiatry at Saint John's Hospital for eleven years. He participated in research associated with diabetic wound care at SIU School of Medicine with his business associate Dr. John A. Shoudel.
Ankle Surgery
Dr. Cockayne is originally from the Springfield area and is a graduate of Ursuline Academy. He obtained his Bachelor of Science from the University of Illinois at Springfield, and his Doctor of Podiatric Medicine degree from Dr. William M. Scholl College of Podiatric Medicine at Rosalind Franklin University in North Chicago, Illinois. He completed his three-year residency at the dual program of Mt Sinai Hospital in Chicago, Illinois, and James A. Lovell Federal Health Care Center in North Chicago, Illinois. He was surgically trained in both foot and ankle surgery and is board qualified in both from the American Board of Foot and Ankle Surgery.
Bunion Surgery
One of the primary causes of hallux varus is rupture of the ligament at the metatarsophalangeal (MTP or toe) joint. The condition often occurs as a complication from bunion surgery or occurs from trauma.
Joint Replacement
Surgery may be necessary if conservative treatment options are not effective. Surgical treatment options can include joint replacement, fusion of the joints, and arthroscopic debridement (cleaning of the joint).
Bunions
A bunion, which is an abnormal bump on the big toe joint caused by enlargement of the joint, may cause significant pain, disfigurement, and deformity. When the joint swells, it can place pressure on the other toes, causing them to crowd together and extend outside the normal foot profile. Although bunions are a relatively minor foot ailment, it is important to obtain treatment while in the earlier stages. With prompt treatment by a skilled doctor, most patients can enjoy improved foot comfort.
Ingrown Toenails

Skin Cancer
Malignant Melanoma - Skin cancer is one of the deadliest types of cancer that can affect your feet. Malignant melanomas have a high survival rate if caught early, but these skin growths often go unnoticed in their earliest stages, especially on the feet. This type of skin cancer can strike people of all ages and ethnic backgrounds.
Corns
Many individuals who have bone spurs never experience adverse symptoms. However, those who do have symptoms usually experience pain, redness, and inflammation in the affected area. A hard bump may also be felt under the skin where the spur is located. In some cases, corns and calluses form over the spur causing further irritation.
Ulcer
Nerve damage can also affect your balance and positioning of your feet. Over time this can cause your feet and toes to change shape. If you wear shoes that rub against the bones or soft tissues of your feet, sores may begin to form. Even a small sore on a foot can turn into an ulcer if it goes unnoticed or is not treated properly. For this reason, it is important to check your feet daily for redness, inflammation, calluses, and cuts.
Calluses
There may also be swelling and inflammation at the base of the big toe, especially on top of the joint. Eventually damage to the cartilage in the joint will cause an overgrowth of bone. These bone spurs might not be painful, but they can lead to calluses caused by friction between the skin and the shoe.
Lesions
Ollier's disease is characterized by multiple benign cartilage tumors called enchondromas. The disease is usually diagnosed during childhood because the lesions typically form near the growth plate cartilage and can affect bone development. Enchondromas commonly affect bones in the feet, but can also form in the bones of the thigh and upper arm. In some cases, enchondromas may become malignant. Malignant cartilage tumors are called chondrosarcomas.
Rashes
Psoriasis

Physical Therapists

Physical Therapy
Treatment for club foot and impaired joints, which are commonly associated with Gordon Syndrome, should begin immediately after birth for the best possible outcome. The goal of treatment is to loosen the soft tissues and align the bones into a normal position. Treatment may include physical therapy, splinting, bracing, continuous casting, or surgery.

Arthritic Foot Care
Bunions Problems
Bunions are caused by ongoing pressure on the feet, particularly on the big toe. Some common sources of such pressure include...
Calluses
Flat Feet
Pes planus, is a common type of foot deformity. The arch in the foot simply never develops or it collapses over time. For people with flat feet, the entire sole of the foot lies flat on the ground when standing or walking.
Hammertoes
Hammertoes are a deformity that causes contracture (bending) of the joints in the second, third, fourth, or fifth toe. Tightened ligaments and tendons cause the toes to curl downward, resembling a hammer or a claw.
Heel Spurs
Heel Spur - Bone spurs on the heel are often associated with plantar fasciitis, a condition in which the tissue that supports the arch separates from the heel bone and causes pain and inflammation. As the affected area becomes inflamed, calcium deposits form and gradually create bone spurs.
Foot Pain
Ingrown Toenails
Foot Injuries
Metatarsalgia
Metatarsalgia is a condition characterized by inflammation of the nerve between the metatarsal bones (bones between toes and ankles). The classic symptom of metatarsalgia is sharp pain in the ball of the foot.
Foot Neuroma
Foot Orthotics
Treatment of benign foot tumors begins with conservative measures, including stretching, physical therapy, steroid injections, and foot orthotics. When foot growths begin to interfere with physical activities, surgery may be necessary to remove the tumors.
Plantar Fasciitis
Bone spurs may develop on the heel, toe, or arch of the foot and typically form as a reaction to pressure or arthritis. Bone spurs may form on one or both feet and commonly affect middle-aged adults. Those who have suffered from plantar fasciitis for several years, individuals with flat feet or high arches, and those who wear high heels are at the greatest risk of developing bone spurs.
