Giving Pain the Boot
Lying on the pavement, barely conscious, all John Bogart could see through the slits of his eyes was the awkward position of his foot. It was completely sideways.

For Wounds That Won’t Heal
You—or a loved one—no longer need to live with fear, isolation and lifestyle limitations from a wound that won’t heal on its own.

ASK THE EXPERT: Peripheral Arterial Disease
I’ve noticed lately that at the end of the day, my legs bother me. They feel tired and sometimes I get a cramping sensation. Should I be concerned?

Foot Drop Therapy
If you’ve been diagnosed with foot drop, you know how challenging it can be to take a simple step.

Could You Have a Sleep Disorder?
There are many types of sleep disorders—obstructive sleep apnea, insomnia, parasomnias (nightmares, sleep walking), periodic limb movement disorder and restless leg syndrome— that can prevent us from getting a good night’s sleep.
