The need of A Successful Ankle and Foot Surgeon

Info

In the field of orthopedics, sometimes many do not understand the specialization of the doctor in the specific area for the sake of better treatment of the patient. Be it neck, hand, collarbone, shoulder or any bone or joint, before consulting any doctor, the patient should also double check their orthopedic specializations.

According to the studies, it has been proved that compared to other joints/bones, most injuries happen to the feet and the ankles. Maybe because of sports, exercise, heavy weights or whatever the reasons. The need for good ankle and foot orthopedics is increasing each day, and to not miss out on helping patients, more orthopedics need to take the initiative of choosing food and ankle specialization.

The academic requirements of a foot and ankle surgeon should include four years of medical school followed by four years of residency training in orthopedic surgery. Students in their bachelor's get training in lower extremity reconstruction, biomechanics, and general foot and ankle injuries and often focus on a particular aspect of lower extremity surgery, such as reconstructive foot surgery or sports medicine, as Surgical residents. People after their fellowship year opt for general foot and ankle surgery, sports medicine, or reconstructive foot surgery on an even more detailed level. The additional training students take after the fellowship year also helps them treat patients with severe disorders.

Having put a good amount of time and energy into studies, orthopedics should also understand that awareness about their specific field is necessary to spread so patients can get help from them and use their information for their benefit. When patients consult a foot or ankle surgeon, they prefer the doctor to tell them if there is a need to undergo the surgical procedures or not. Because just having pain or swollen muscles doesn't make sense to them until they get the diagnosis from the doctor.

There are a few disadvantages of undergoing surgical procedures, but there are a ton of advantages as well. For instance, long-lasting pain relief, better function and mobility, a greater choice of comfortable footwear, improved appearance of your feet, depending on the procedure etc. Before opting the option of surgery the surgeon suggests to process with the alternatives that are; exercise, footcare, drug treatments, usually painkillers and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) if you have rheumatoid arthritis, steroid injections, advice on footwear style, insoles/orthoses and specially altered shoes and many more.

An orthopedic surgeon with expertise in foot and ankle surgery has been doing great work in the field lately. Mohammed Towfeek Alshouli is a surgeon who got his education from his motherland, Riyadh, and went to US, Chicago, to do the specialization. Mohammed Towfeek is a very well-experienced and qualified surgeon of his age. Alshouli had a clear vision regarding the field and the purpose of helping people with feet and ankle injuries and disorders. He firmly believes that there should be more research centers where one can work on this specifically for the better treatment of the patients. Wants to establish a research center for diabetic foot management specifically.
