Sesamoiditis

Comprehensive Sesamoiditis Care

Expert Treatment for Ball-of-Foot Pain and Sesamoid Bone Inflammation

Sesamoiditis is an inflammatory condition affecting the tiny sesamoid bones embedded within the tendons beneath the big toe joint. This painful disorder commonly develops from repetitive pressure, high-impact activities, or increased forefoot stress, causing sharp pain in the ball of the foot that worsens with walking, running, or wearing certain footwear.

We conduct detailed examinations and imaging studies to differentiate sesamoiditis from other forefoot conditions and assess the extent of inflammation or potential bone damage. Our individualized treatment plans may include activity modification, padding and offloading techniques, custom orthotics, anti-inflammatory medications, immobilization when necessary, and specialized therapies to reduce stress on the affected bones.

Our aim is to eliminate inflammation and pain, protect the sesamoid bones from further injury, and restore your ability to walk and exercise comfortably. From conservative padding and support strategies to advanced interventions, we're committed to helping you achieve lasting relief while preventing chronic complications and ensuring optimal forefoot function.
