Ankle arthritis can be debilitating, making even simple activities like walking or standing painful. For patients whose symptoms no longer respond to conservative treatments, total ankle replacement (TAR), also called total ankle arthroplasty, may be an effective option.

Below, we answer some of the most frequently asked questions patients have about total ankle replacement, including who is a candidate, how long implants last, and what recovery looks like.

What Is a Total Ankle Replacement?

A total ankle replacement is a surgical procedure in which the damaged surfaces of the ankle joint are removed and replaced with an artificial implant. The implant typically consists of metal components attached to the tibia and talus, with a polyethylene (plastic) spacer in between to allow smooth movement.

The goal of ankle replacement is to:

Relieve pain caused by arthritis
Preserve ankle motion
Improve function and quality of life

This procedure is most commonly performed for patients with end-stage ankle arthritis, whether due to wear-and-tear (osteoarthritis), prior injury (post-traumatic arthritis), or inflammatory conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis.

This is why you shouldn't wait to address an issue like pain or discomfort in your foot or ankle area.

Our bodies speak to us in a very simple language, paid and discomfort. If you are doing something that causes you pain or discomfort, like walking, that means something is wrong. On top of that, waiting to do something about this pain and discomfort could turn a stress fracture or tendonitis into a worse situation requiring surgery. Ever had that friend or family member that had a leg of foot injury, perhaps a fractured bone, that healed wrong and gave them trouble their entire life? Don't be that person, call us today to start your healing journey with the skilled staff and doctors at Center for Foot and Ankle Restoration.

Common Running Injuries: Symptoms, Treatment, and How to Prevent Them

Running is one of the most accessible and effective forms of exercise, offering cardiovascular, mental, and overall health benefits. However, the repetitive impact of running can also place significant stress on the muscles, bones, and joints. As a result, running injuries are common, especially when training errors, poor biomechanics, or inadequate recovery are involved.

Understanding the most common running injuries, their symptoms, and how they are treated can help runners stay healthy and active.

Common Running Injuries and Their Symptoms

Runner’s Knee (Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome)

• Pain around or behind the kneecap
• Discomfort when running downhill, climbing stairs, or sitting for long periods
• Often caused by muscle imbalances or overuse

Plantar Fasciitis

• Sharp or aching pain in the heel or arch
• Pain often worst with the first steps in the morning
• Associated with tight calf muscles or poor footwear

Achilles Tendinitis

• Pain or stiffness along the back of the ankle
• Symptoms often worsen with activity
• Common in runners who increase mileage or speed too quickly

Stress Fractures

• Localized pain that worsens with running and improves with rest
• Most common in the tibia (shin), foot, or ankle
• Often caused by repetitive impact without adequate recovery

Shin Splints (Medial Tibial Stress Syndrome)

• Diffuse pain along the inner shin
• Pain may improve during a run but worsen afterward
• Frequently related to overtraining or improper footwear

Chronic foot and ankle pain can make everyday activities challenging—especially when injuries don’t seem to heal with rest or traditional treatments. Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is an emerging option in orthopedic care that uses the body’s own healing abilities to help repair injured tissue. For certain foot and ankle conditions, PRP may offer a non-surgical path to pain relief and recovery.

What Is Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy?

PRP therapy involves using a small sample of your own blood to promote healing. The blood is placed in a centrifuge, which separates and concentrates the platelets. These platelets are rich in growth factors that help stimulate tissue repair.
Once prepared, the platelet-rich plasma is injected directly into the injured area under sterile conditions—often with imaging guidance to ensure accuracy.

How PRP Works

Platelets play a key role in the body’s natural healing process. When PRP is injected into damaged tissue, it releases growth factors that may:
• Reduce inflammation
• Promote tissue regeneration
• Improve blood flow to injured areas
• Support long-term healing
Because PRP comes from your own blood, the risk of allergic reaction is very low.

Preventative Foot Care: How to Reduce Your Risk of Sports Injuries

Whether you’re a competitive athlete or someone who enjoys staying active, your feet play a critical role in sports performance and injury prevention. They absorb impact, provide balance, and help propel your body forward. Taking proactive steps to care for your feet can significantly reduce your risk of sports-related injuries and keep you moving comfortably.

Why Preventative Foot Care Matters

Many sports injuries begin with small issues—tight muscles, poor footwear, or minor imbalances—that gradually worsen over time. Without proper foot care, these problems can lead to conditions such as plantar fasciitis, stress fractures, tendon injuries, and ankle sprains. Preventative care helps protect the foot and ankle before injury occurs.

Arthritis is a common condition that affects millions of people, and when it involves the foot and ankle, it can significantly impact daily life. These joints support your entire body with every step you take, so when they become stiff or painful, even simple activities can feel challenging. Understanding what arthritis is, why it develops, and how it’s treated can help you take control of your symptoms and maintain long-term mobility.

What Is Arthritis?

Arthritis refers to inflammation and degeneration of the joints, leading to symptoms such as pain, stiffness, and swelling. In the foot and ankle, arthritis can develop in several joints, including:

The ankle joint
The big toe joint
The joints in the midfoot
The joints between the heel and midfoot

Because the foot contains 28 bones and more than 30 joints, arthritis can appear in multiple places—sometimes making diagnosis difficult without a specialist evaluation.
