Spring in Austin means one thing: everyone gets active again.

Suddenly we’re:
🏃 Running Town Lake  🥾 Hiking the Greenbelt  🎾 Playing pickleball  🎶 Walking miles at outdoor festivals

But when activity increases quickly after a slower winter season, your feet and ankles often feel it first.

Here are 5 injuries we commonly see when Austin gets moving again:

• Plantar fasciitis (heel pain)  • Achilles tendon irritation  • Pain in the ball of the foot (metatarsalgia)  • Stress injuries from repetitive impact  • Overuse tendon inflammation

Acommon cause? Doing too much, too quickly.

Your muscles, tendons, and ligaments need time to adapt when activity levels increase.

A few simple tips to help prevent injury:
✔ Increase activity gradually  ✔ Wear supportive footwear  ✔ Stretch your calves before activity  ✔ Address pain early before it worsens

If your feet are already sending warning signs, early evaluation can help you stay active and avoid longer recovery times.

She was in her 20’s, active, and ready to live her life - but her toes held her back.

She came in self-conscious — her toes were too long, misaligned, and the pressure at the tips made every step uncomfortable. Open-toe sandals felt like a distant dream. Heels were out of the question. She thought she just had to live with it.

With a minimally invasive toe length & alignment correction at Align Foot & Ankle she walked out with properly aligned toes.

No implants. No pins. No screws. Just tiny incisions and a life-changing result. 👣

And the best part? Foot #2 is already scheduled — stay tuned. 👀

Your toes shouldn't be the reason you skip sandal season.

If your toes are causing you pain, rubbing against your shoes, or just preventing comfort in your day-to-day life — there are solutions.💚

✅ Minimally invasive
✅ No implants, pins, or screws
✅ Quick recovery

Your feet are often the first to signal when something isn’t right. 👣

Persistent heel pain. Numbness or tingling. Swelling that doesn’t resolve. Changes in skin color or slow-healing wounds.

These aren’t just minor inconveniences — they can be early indicators of biomechanical imbalance, nerve irritation, tendon dysfunction, or circulation concerns.

In our latest blog, we break down 7 signs your feet may be trying to tell you something — and why early evaluation matters.

At Align Foot & Ankle, we take a comprehensive approach to diagnosis and treatment, utilizing advanced imaging, in-clinic circulation studies, regenerative therapies, and minimally invasive solutions when needed.

Could your feet survive the Winter Olympics? ❄️🏅

The Games may be over… but performance never is.

From explosive hockey pivots to powerful skating landings and precision ski alignment, elite athletes depend on stability at the foot and ankle level.

And here’s the truth — you don’t have to compete on the world stage to overload your foundation.

Heel pain. Tendon strain. Instability.
We see it in collegiate athletes… and in everyday pickleball players.

At Align Foot & Ankle, we support performance at every level with:

• Custom Orthotics for biomechanical alignment
• Class IV Lasers
• Shockwave therapy
• BPC-157 peptide support
• RedVive red light therapy
• Targeted regenerative strategies

Because strong movement starts where you stand.

Fungal nails are more than cosmetic. They are a chronic infection living beneath the nail plate — which is why many over-the-counter treatments fail.

Here’s how our Class IV laser treatment works:

• Delivers therapeutic light energy through the nail plate
• Reduces fungal burden at the source
• Increases local circulation
• Supports healthier nail regrowth over time
• Non-invasive and performed in-office
• No downtime

For best results, we often combine laser therapy with topical Tolcylen to enhance antifungal pe*******on and support ongoing treatment between visits.

Most patients require a series of treatments, and improvement becomes visible gradually as the nail grows forward.

Healthy nails don’t clear overnight. They grow millimeter by millimeter. The key is creating the right environment for regeneration.

If you’ve been hiding your nails or frustrated with failed treatments, there are options.

Your heart health doesn’t stop at your chest.🫀

Because your feet are farthest from the heart, they’re often the first place circulation changes appear. Persistent coldness, swelling, discoloration, or slow-healing wounds may signal underlying vascular concerns. 👣

During American Heart Month, we’re highlighting the connection between circulation and foot health — and how early evaluation can prevent complications.

At Align Foot & Ankle, we perform in-clinic circulation studies to assess lower extremity blood flow, like our ABI/TBI exam.

And we offer minimally invasive regenerative therapies to support circulation and healing, such as:
• Class IV laser therapy
• Shockwave therapy
• Biologics
• BPC-157
• Red light therapy

BRB, just casually running 26.2 miles like it’s no big deal 😎🏃🏻‍♀️🏃🏻‍♂️

We are beyond proud of Maja and Chris for finishing the Austin Marathon yesterday!! That’s heart. That’s discipline. That’s serious commitment. 🏅

And yes, they’ve officially entered their “Oofo era” post-race (Dr. Ho-Ellsworth’s favorite 😉👣).

What a day. What a team. 💚

It’s not you. It’s your biomechanics. 🦶❤️
Most chronic foot pain isn’t about effort.

It’s about structure and force distribution.
Narrow shoes.
High heels.
Hard surfaces.
Genetics.
Over time, small imbalances become inflammation.

At Align Foot & Ankle, we evaluate alignment first — then build a treatment plan around your biology using orthotics, shockwave, laser, regenerative therapies, and minimally invasive correction when needed. 💚

You don’t need to blame yourself.
You need the right evaluation.
