Hi All,
My wife has been diagnosed with arthritis in her left foot, (she's only 32!!!) which was apparently caused by running. She has been trying to get back into running very slowly, building up milage, but all efforts so far has led to pain. I was wondering if ayone had a reccomendation for a good sports docotor/poditrist (running focused) in the area she could go see?
Thanks!

arthritis help
My name is josh and i am a podiatrist in northeast Philly. I deal with a lot of sports medicine. In regards to the arthritis were is it? In the big toe, on the top of the foot or throughout the foot. There are different reasons for each and each can be solved to keep you running. My mission is to treat as best I can with conservative treatment before opting for surgical. I have been quite successful in helping on a conservative basis getting people to return to there sports. Josh
