Non-Surgical Treatment for Ball of Foot Pain

How long does Leneva take to wear out? Leneva is a procedure that uses injections for the treatment of the fat pad under the foot. The fat pad is a cushion that helps protect the bones of the foot from injury. This cushion can cause pain in the feet if it becomes worn or is damaged. Leneva can reduce the pain by injecting a substance called Hyaluronic Acid into the area where it has been worn away. 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. The procedure is very quick and takes only minutes. It has been proven to reduce pain and improve function. Leneva refers to the removal of small amounts from another area of your body with liposuction. This fat can then be injected into the area of the foot that requires support or cushioning. Each patient has different needs so the injection locations are chosen carefully. Leneva uses patient's own fat. There is no risk of allergic reactions or rejection. Long-lasting results can also be achieved by injecting fat cells into the foot. Leneva is an outpatient procedure that can be done without the need for hospitalization. Most patients can return to their regular activities within days. Recovery times are also quick. Leneva might be the right treatment for you if you suffer from foot pain that is negatively impacting your quality of living. 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.
