Non-Surgical Treatment for Ball of Foot Pain

How long does Leneva stay? Leneva is a procedure that uses injections for the treatment of the fat pad under the foot. The fat pad acts like a cushion and protects the feet from any impact. The cushion can cause pain in your foot if it is worn down or damaged. Leneva can relieve this pain by injecting a substance known as hyaluronic acids into the area that has lost its fat pad. This substance will give the area some cushioning and lift. The injections are usually performed every six months and last for approximately six weeks. How much does Leneva Cost? Leneva,a minimally-invasive treatment for foot problems,uses fat injections to provide support and cushioning. It is fast and easy to do and can help reduce pain and improve function. Leneva uses liposuction to remove a small amount fat from another region of the body. This fat can then be injected into the area of the foot that requires support or cushioning. Each patient is different so each person's needs will be considered when selecting the injection sites. Leneva does not use any patient's fat. The fat cells that are injected into the feet will continue to grow and live,providing long-lasting results. Leneva can be done as an outpatient procedure. This means that there is no need to stay in a hospital. The recovery time is quick,with most patients being able to resume their daily activities in a matter of days. Leneva may be a good option for you if your foot pain is making it difficult to live a normal life. Contact us today to learn more about this innovative treatment.

KC Foot Care offers a noninvasive way to treat foot pain caused by a recurring callus,pain in the ball of the foot or heel and even ulcerations due to loss of fat padding. As we age,the fat pad to our feet shifts due to hammertoe and bunion deformity or repeated steroid injections for plantar fasciitis. The fat pad thins down,causing increased pressure points and pain with every step we take. Leneva is an allograft adipose matrix derived from donated human tissue used for tissue reconstruction. This is a safe and clinically proven solution to help with foot pain without steroid injections or surgery. Leneva is also FDA approved. How can I treat corns and calluses at home? Unless the cause of the corn and callus is addressed,they will not go away and often grow back. Home care includes gentle exfoliation using a pumice stone regularly. Using a razor or cuticle scissors is risky and can cause an infection. Do not use any over the counter medicated products with salicylic acid without consulting a podiatrist. Using these products without supervision can make the issue worse. What other treatments are available? The goal in treating the corn or callus is to reduce the pressure causing it. Choosing wider appropriately sized shoes,prescribed skin softeners with urea or lactic acid,regular foot care,felt pads,gel inserts and custom orthotics are usually the first line of treatment. Recent advancement in medicine has made many foot fillers,including fat allograft (Leneva),as a nonsurgical option injection therapy for pain relief. Lastly,surgery may be considered in severe cases.
