Surgical Treatment for Chronic Achilles Pain & Heel Deformities
Daniel Zilberbrand Podiatry provides advanced Achilles’ tendon and Haglund’s surgery in Hempstead for patients experiencing chronic heel pain, tendon damage, or bony deformities that do not respond to conservative care. These conditions can significantly impact walking, standing, and daily activities if left untreated.
When non-surgical treatments fail to relieve symptoms, surgical correction may be recommended to restore function and reduce long-term pain.
What Is Achilles’ Tendon & Haglund’s Surgery?
Achilles’ tendon surgery is performed to treat chronic Achilles tendon disorders, including tendon degeneration, inflammation, or partial tears. Haglund’s deformity is a bony enlargement on the back of the heel that can irritate the Achilles tendon and surrounding soft tissue, leading to persistent pain and swelling.
Surgery may be recommended when these conditions cause ongoing pain, limit mobility, or interfere with daily activities despite conservative treatment.
