Keep your student athlete at the top of their game!

Keep your student athlete at the top of their game!

For many student athletes they are actively participating in sports throughout the school year without a break in between seasons. Often they push through their heel pain, ankle injury or other aches and pains until their next sport begins. It is all too common for these issues to be placed on the back burner behind practice, homework and family time. Neglecting issues can be extremely dangerous. Small issues can turn into major problems, hampering your ability to participate in your sport and even school work if they result in an injury that requires lengthy recovery time.

​One thing that too frequently gets neglected is basic health–a minor injury or nagging ailment can get filed away under “we can take care of it later.” Powering through pain is a common theme among driven student athletes.

Unfortunately, it’s also very dangerous. Small irritations can turn into major problems, hampering your ability to participate in a sport and even your class work if they lead to an injury that requires a long recovery. Injuries and chronic conditions can strike anyone, but especially the most active. Foot & Ankle Surgical Associates, we take special care of student athletes and empower them to take care of themselves so that they remain active and competitive.

Whether your sport is football, baseball, cheerleading, wrestling, bowling or any other, injuries can happen, and the pressure and repetition of most of these activities can lead to chronic conditions. You want a podiatrist who understands athletes and is dedicated to getting them back on the field
