  • As the weight-bearing portion of the body, injuries and disorders of the feet are common and can be quite disruptive to an individual's lifestyle. With 26 bones, 23 joints, and 20 muscles in each foot, compounded with athletic exercise plans and improperly fitting shoes, there is plenty of room for injuries and disorders in the human foot.
