What Kind Of Doctor Should I Consult For Stone Formation In Heels?
Dear Sir,
My wife is aged 47 years. She has cracks on both of feet especially on heals. The cracks are wide and skin become very hard . As a result she gets severer pain and walking is difficult.
Consulted an orthopedic surgeon who after X-Ray said that there is stone formation in both the heels and that can be cured by physio therapy and also by applying an ointment called Nano fast . It gives relief for a few minutes only
Her height 5 feet and weight is 65 kgs
Who should be consulted for treatment of this.

hi
my advice would be hot and cold fomentation,pedicure,tab.tendocare(hyaluronic acid, glucosamine.chondroitin) three time a day for 2-3 weeks along with ibuprofen,never walk bare foot.
inj.triamcilone/methylprednisolone at the site of stone formation will also help her a lot.
take care
