Heel spur (Lenoir’s thorn) - PiedRéseau Pointe-aux-Trembles
PiedRéseau Pointe-aux-Trembles offers specialized care for patients suffering from heel spurs, also known as Lenoir’s thorn. This condition involves a bony protrusion on the inside of the heel, which can be identified through X-ray imaging. Our clinic is equipped to assess and manage this common issue effectively, ensuring that patients receive the appropriate care tailored to their needs.
Patients experiencing discomfort in their heels, especially during the first steps in the morning or after prolonged sitting, can benefit from our comprehensive evaluation. At PiedRéseau, we understand that heel spurs often develop in conjunction with plantar fasciitis, and our team is skilled in diagnosing and treating this condition. We utilize advanced imaging techniques to confirm the presence of heel spurs and to develop an effective treatment plan.
Our clinic provides various treatment options for managing heel spur-related pain, including the use of orthotics, heel pads, and, in some cases, surgical intervention. We focus on alleviating discomfort while addressing the underlying factors contributing to the condition. Our goal is to help patients regain mobility and improve their quality of life.
The PiedRéseau team consists of dedicated professionals, including Dr. Marie-Eve Berthiaume, the podiatrist-owner; Dr. Catherine Roy Bénard; Dr. Océane Daigle; and Hien-My-Uyen Sylvie Kong. Our support staff includes auxiliary nurses and assistants who work collaboratively to ensure a seamless patient experience. Together, we are committed to providing high-quality podiatric care in a welcoming environment.
