Dr. Damien Dauphinee, a board-certified foot and ankle surgeon, and Dr. Raafae Hussain, fellowship trained foot and ankle surgeon, talk about Haglund's deformity and the associated achilles tendonitis. They discuss the conservative and surgical treatment options. QUOTES:“As far as surgery’s concern, there’s no conservative treatment to get rid of the bone. So when you have a golf ball in the back of your heel... so when you have that mass, that golf ball, that’s going to continue to be a source of irritation and the only way to fix that is surgery.” -Dr. Damien Dauphinee [11:14]“I had plantar fasciitis. It’s cumbersome and weird. But if you put (a night splint) on and you’re watching TV, you’re computering, you’re Facebooking, YouTubing, whatever you’re doing, you watch an episode of Tiger King, bam, that’s an hour of stretch right there. Super easy.” -Dr. Raafae Hussain [08:43]Top Takeaways:What is Haglund's deformity and what do the Pod Doctors seen in the X-raysWhat is EquinusConservative and surgical treatmentsWhat You Will Learn:[00:40] Intro[01:58] What they see in the deformity[03:17] What they see in the X-rays[05:57] What is Equinus[07:06] Conservative treatment[11:04] Surgical treatment[20:45] Recovery[22:15] OutroResources:Visit our website: https://thepoddoctors.com/Book Mentioned: Saving Limbs, Saving Lives: Advanced Treatments for Preventing Amputations in Diabetic Populations by Dr. Damien DauphineeRevisit our episode on Jones fracture: https://poddoctors.podbean.com/e/the-poddoctors-jones-fractures/
