Sesamoiditis

Relief for Forefoot Pain

Targeted Treatment for Sesamoiditis

Sesamoiditis is an inflammation of the small sesamoid bones located under the big toe joint. These tiny bones act like pulleys to help the big toe move properly and absorb weight-bearing pressure. When overused or injured, they can become irritated and painful, making it difficult to walk or participate in activities. At Fredericksburg Foot & Ankle Center, we diagnose and treat sesamoiditis to relieve pain and restore comfort.

We begin with a thorough evaluation to confirm the diagnosis and rule out fractures or other forefoot conditions. Based on your needs, we create a personalized treatment plan that may include rest, padding, footwear modification, custom orthotics, anti-inflammatory care, or physical therapy. For persistent or severe cases, more advanced interventions may be considered to protect the area and promote healing.



Our goal is to relieve pain, reduce inflammation, and prevent future flare-ups so you can return to your normal activities without discomfort. Whether caused by overuse, high-impact sports, or changes in foot structure, Fredericksburg Foot & Ankle Center offers complete care for healthy, pain-free forefeet.
