Sesamoiditis : symptoms and treatments - PiedRéseau Rive-Sud
At PiedRéseau Rive-Sud, we offer specialized services for the diagnosis and treatment of sesamoiditis, a condition characterized by inflammation of the sesamoid bones located under the metatarsal head near the big toe. Our clinic is equipped with advanced medical technology, enabling us to provide effective care tailored to each patient’s needs. Early detection of sesamoiditis symptoms is crucial for preventing further complications, and our team is dedicated to delivering comprehensive assessments to ensure accurate diagnoses and appropriate treatment plans.
Our clinical approach to sesamoiditis involves a thorough examination, including visual inspections, biomechanical evaluations, and digital X-rays, to rule out other conditions. We understand that this condition can significantly impact mobility and quality of life, particularly for athletes and dancers. Therefore, we focus on providing a range of medical treatments, including custom-made orthotics, therapeutic taping, and non-invasive therapies, to alleviate discomfort and restore function.
The PiedRéseau Rive-Sud team comprises Dr. Audrey Gilbert, podiatrist-owner; Dr. Vincent Coulombe, podiatrist; Guylaine Meilleur, foot care auxiliary nurse; Stéphanie Thivierge, foot care nurse; Hélène Septier, foot care auxiliary nurse/podiatric assistant; Kathy Laroche, clinical coordinator/administrative assistant; and Caroline Boudreault, executive administrative assistant. Together, we work collaboratively to ensure that our patients receive attentive care and support throughout their treatment journey.
