Tarsal tunnel syndrome happens when the nerve running along the inside of your ankle gets compressed, leading to tingling, numbness, or burning that can radiate into the foot. 🦶

It's sometimes described as feeling like your foot "falls asleep" without an obvious cause — and it can be mistaken for other conditions like plantar fasciitis, which is why proper diagnosis matters.

Common causes include:
🔹 Flat feet or fallen arches
🔹 Swelling from injury or overuse
🔹 Certain systemic conditions affecting nerves
🔹 Repetitive strain from standing or walking

👣 Treatment often starts conservatively — rest, supportive footwear, or targeted therapy — but persistent cases may need more advanced care.

👨🏻‍⚕️ If you're dealing with unexplained numbness or tingling in your foot or ankle, let's find out what's really going on. Foot & Ankle Specialists of Northern New Mexico is here to help across the state. Schedule your appointment with a podiatrist near you today.

Morton's neuroma is a thickening of tissue around one of the nerves leading to your toes — often the third and fourth. It can feel like burning, tingling, numbness, or even like there's a pebble stuck in your shoe. 🦶

Common contributors include tight or narrow shoes, high heels, and repetitive stress from running or other high-impact activity.

The good news: most cases respond well to conservative treatment, such as:
✅ Wider, more supportive footwear
✅ Custom orthotics or padding to relieve pressure
✅ Rest from aggravating activities
✅ In more stubborn cases, injections or other targeted treatments

If that "pebble in your shoe" feeling just won't go away, it's worth getting checked out rather than pushing through it.

Toenail trimming seems simple, but the details matter more than you'd think! ✂️

🦶🏼 The basics: trim every 6-8 weeks (toenails grow slower than fingernails), cut straight across — never rounded — and stop before you expose the nail bed. Soften nails first with a warm soak, use proper toenail clippers, and file any sharp edges after.

If you have diabetes, poor circulation, or neuropathy, small nicks can turn into bigger problems fast — professional trimming is the safer route. 👨🏻‍⚕️ Same goes for older adults with thicker nails, or athletes putting repetitive pressure on their toes.

Noticing thickened, discolored, or painful nails? Don't wait it out — let's take a look.

In the right hands — and on the right support. 👣

👨🏻‍⚕️ In the right hands, a bent toe is an easy fix.

🦶🏼 A hammertoe forms when a muscle imbalance bends a toe at the middle joint. Early on, it’s flexible and very manageable — footwear changes, padding, and custom orthotics. Wait, and it can stiffen into painful corns.

🏥 From Albuquerque to Taos, our board-certified specialists take a conservative approach and treat the problem before it grows. Don’t let it slow you down — get back out there!

🩴 Hiding your toes in closed shoes all summer? ☀️ Toenail fungus is the most common reason patients put off sandals — and it rarely clears on its own.

❗ 5 signs it’s time to be evaluated:
• Thickened or crumbling toenails
• Yellow, brown, or white discoloration
• Nails lifting away from the nail bed
• A faint odor or debris under the nail
• One nail spreading the problem to its neighbors

👨🏻‍⚕️ The earlier it’s treated, the better the result — and the sooner you’re sandal-ready.
