By: Dr Christopher Segler | - The midfoot is a complex area involving 10 different bones coming together to form more than a dozen separate joints. A sprain in this area can result in aching or throbbing midfoot pain, swelling and bruising.

- Extra Bones In The Human Foot: A Common Finding
By: Scott Kilberg DPM | - Extra foot bones?
The truth is, some people do have extra bones in their feet. Most of the time, one would never notice that they had these extra bones present in their feet.

- Deeper Than It Seems: A Thorough Look At Puncture Wounds In The Foot
By: Dr. Jennifer Feeny | - Puncture wounds are more serious than most people think. Because the wound creates a hole in the foot, rather than a tear like a common cut, they are extremely prone to infections and cause more internal damage. What would seem like a simple infection on a small wound can easily spread to the bone and joint and endanger the limb if not treated in a timely manner. The severity of a puncture wound is very hard to gauge for a person without a medical background because the depth and internal damage ...
