Sesamoiditis : symptoms and treatments - PiedRéseau Saint-Léonard
The PiedRéseau Saint-Léonard clinic offers 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. This service is essential for individuals experiencing discomfort in the foot, particularly those engaged in activities such as dancing or running. Our clinic is equipped with advanced diagnostic tools to accurately assess the condition and determine the most effective treatment plan tailored to each patient’s needs.
At PiedRéseau Saint-Léonard, we understand the importance of addressing sesamoiditis promptly to prevent further complications. Our clinical approach includes thorough examinations and personalized treatment strategies, which may involve custom orthotics, therapeutic taping, and other medical interventions. Our goal is to help patients regain mobility and alleviate pain, ensuring a comprehensive management of their foot health.
The clinic is led by Dr. Paryse Mayhew and Dr. Gabriel Cartier, both podiatrists who obtained their Doctor of Podiatric Medicine degrees from the University of Quebec at Trois-Rivières. Dr. Mayhew completed internships in pediatrics, surgery, and radiology, while Dr. Cartier focused on biomechanics and human anatomy. Both are actively involved in humanitarian missions and contribute to the field through their engagement with the Association of Podiatrists Without Borders.
