Foot Surgery and Ankle Surgery | Types & Treatment | MedStar Health (2024)

Many foot and ankle conditions progress and worsen unless handled promptly. Talk to an orthopedic foot and ankle specialist at MedStar Health as soon as possible to know if your condition needs to be taken care of or can be watched over time. We treat a full spectrum of foot and ankle conditions. After we try non-operative options, surgery may be essential to get you back on your feet.

What to expect

Foot surgery and ankle surgery can be straightforward, but it can also be quite complex, as there are many joints in each area within the foot and ankle, each with complex motion. Therefore, your experience will depend on various factors, from your unique condition to the procedure being performed.

We will work with you to provide all options available and ensure you are comfortable with your choice. When appropriate, these may include minimally invasive options.

We often perform procedures at foot or ankle centers that provide same-day services, either at the hospital or the surgery center. This means you will likely go home the same day without staying overnight.

Recovery

The time it takes to recover from your procedure will depend on your condition, type of surgery, and commitment to the recovery regimen. For example, a simple bunionectomy may require resting for only a few weeks. However, a more complex or traumatic surgery can take six to twelve months of recovery.

With over 50 locations throughout the Washington, D.C. - Baltimore metropolitan region, you’ll find therapy and rehabilitation from a physical therapist close to where you live and work.
