That one stubborn toenail you keep hiding? It might be more than just cosmetic. Discoloration, thickening, or brittleness can be signs of fungal infection, past trauma, circulation problems, or even vitamin deficiencies.

June is National Men’s Health Month—and with Father’s Day this Sunday, it’s the perfect time to check in on the men in your life (or yourself). Foot pain isn’t something to “just deal with.” Men are more likely to delay care—and that delay can lead to bigger problems. This month, take the first step. Whether it’s a quick consult, custom orthotics, or advanced care like Class IV laser therapy or softwave therapy, Dr. Ho-Ellsworth offers solutions that work with your lifestyle. Your feet are your foundation. Let’s keep them strong.

Swollen feet after a flight? Sore heels after a weekend away? It might be more than “just summer.” As temperatures rise and travel picks up, many of our patients experience swelling, heel pain, or numbness they’ve never noticed before. At Align Foot & Ankle, we take these signs seriously—because symptoms like these can reveal deeper issues with circulation, nerve function, or biomechanical stress.
We offer in-office diagnostics like ABI/TBI testing, gait scans, and regenerative treatments to help identify the root cause and prevent long-term complications—especially in high-risk patients with diabetes or vascular disease.
Don’t ignore what your feet are telling you. Early care can keep you moving through the summer without setbacks.

What is Don’t Fry Day? It’s the Friday before Memorial Day, created to raise awareness about sun safety as we head into summer. Whether you’re hanging out at Barton Springs with friends or barbequing with family this Memorial Day Weekend, don’t forget your SPF! While most people remember to apply sunscreen to their face and arms, one area is often forgotten: your feet.
The tops of your feet are highly vulnerable to sunburn—and if you have diabetes, neuropathy, or a history of wounds, even a small burn can lead to bigger problems like infection or delayed healing. Before you slip on those sandals, think SPF.

Feeling a sharp pain in the ball of your foot — like you’re stepping on a pebble that isn’t there? You’re not imagining it. At Align Foot & Ankle, Dr. Ho-Ellsworth sees patients every week with forefoot pain caused by conditions like metatarsalgia, stress fractures, and neuromas.The good news? With early diagnosis and personalized treatments — like Class IV laser therapy, custom orthotics, and regenerative options — you can get back to moving comfortably without major downtime. Don’t ignore the signs. Your feet are your foundation!

May is Osteoporosis Awareness Month, and at Align Foot & Ankle, we believe prevention starts from the ground up. Dr. Ho-Ellsworth often sees signs of bone loss in the feet before a patient is ever diagnosed. Think stress fractures, persistent heel pain, or subtle changes in how you walk.

How can light heal your feet? It’s a question we hear often—and the science behind it is real. At Align Foot & Ankle, Dr. Ho-Ellsworth uses the Remy Class IV laser to deliver precise wavelengths of light that penetrate deep into muscle, fascia, and nerve tissue. This isn’t about surface relief—it’s about triggering cellular repair where it matters most. Class IV laser therapy works by increasing ATP production (adenosine triphosphate—the energy your cells use to repair and regenerate), improving blood flow to reduce swelling and inflammation, and modulating nerve activity to relieve pain. We use this therapy to treat conditions like plantar fasciitis, achilles tendinitis, neuropathy, arthritis, an post-surgical pain and inflammation
No medications. No downtime. Just regenerative results backed by clinical research.

You’re finally in bed, ready to relax — but your feet have other plans. Tingling, burning, or that pins-and-needles feeling starts to creep in, especially at night. It might seem like a small annoyance, but if it’s happening often, it’s worth paying attention to. At Align Foot & Ankle, we see this symptom all the time. And while it might seem harmless at first, it can actually be an early sign of something deeper: nerve dysfunction.

Your toenails do more than just hold polish—they can be early indicators of underlying health issues. From discoloration to texture changes, nails often reflect what’s happening inside your body. At Align Foot & Ankle, we treat both the cosmetic and medical concerns behind nail changes with an eye for total body health.

You rely on your feet more than you think—whether you’re walking to your car, chasing after kids, or just getting through your workday. But unless there’s pain, most people don’t give their feet much attention. April is National Foot Health Awareness Month, and it’s a good reminder to check in with what’s happening below the ankle. At Align Foot & Ankle, we’re here to help you prevent problems before they start—or treat the ones you’ve been putting off.

Dr. Ho-Ellsworth recommends swapping them out for this season’s more supportive trends—like flatforms and slight kitten heels—that offer both style and structure your feet will thank you for. Most classic flats lack arch support, shock absorption, and stability—leading to heel pain, plantar fasciitis, and long-term foot strain. Dr. Ho-Ellsworth doesn’t recommend flat shoes for daily wear and suggests looking for styles that don’t bend or twist easily (if a shoe folds like paper, skip it) and have built-in arch support and structured soles to name a few!

Spring is here, and so are seasonal foot problems you may not have seen coming. From heel pain and fungal infections to blisters and swelling, small issues can turn into big discomforts if ignored.

Spring break is almost here—are your feet ready? Whether you’re hitting the beach, exploring a new city, or walking miles at the airport, don’t let foot pain, blisters, or fungal infections ruin your trip.

March is National Kidney Month, and did you know your kidney health and foot health are closely connected?

Ever wondered why your toes wrinkle like raisins after a swim? It’s not just the water! This natural reaction, controlled by our nervous system, actually has an evolutionary purpose.
