Plantar Plate Repair

This video shows the Arthrex system for repair of a plantar plate tear.  Injury to the plantar plate can occur with chronic capsulitis of the 2nd metatarsal phalangeal joint.  A plantar plate tear will typically cause pain under the joint as well as a worsening hammertoe formation of the 2nd toe.  If you have pain under your 2nd toe, it is important for us to see you as a patient to assess the cause.  Early treatment of this pain can prevent a plantar plate tear.  The doctors at Council Bluffs Foot & Ankle Care are experts in the treatment of this condition.  Call us at 712-328-0297 or visit our website www.cbfootcare.com to learn more.
