Being pregnant means many changes for the body but, at  we often find that patients are not fully aware of how it can affect the feet and ankles.

At Paul Klein, DPM, FACFAS, when summer starts and feet come out of boots and closed shoes, we often see patients with a host of foot irregularities that they didn’t notice during the winter months.

So often by the time a patient comes to us with a foot or ankle concern, a condition that could have been easily relieved with conservative methods now requires much more intense treatment or possibly even surgery.
