Peripheral Neuropathy Evaluation and Treatment in Michigan: Balance Foot & Ankle

Michigan patients with peripheral neuropathy — burning, tingling, numbness, or shooting pain in the feet and legs — deserve a thorough diagnostic evaluation that identifies the underlying cause and establishes a treatment plan targeted to that cause rather than purely symptom management. At Balance Foot & Ankle, peripheral neuropathy evaluation includes comprehensive lower extremity neurological examination, monofilament sensory testing, vascular assessment, and coordination with neurology for electrodiagnostic studies when compressive or inflammatory neuropathy is suspected. For diabetic peripheral neuropathy — the most common cause in our patient population — we provide protective footwear assessment, ulcer risk stratification, custom diabetic orthotics and footwear, and regular surveillance examinations designed to prevent the foot complications that neuropathy enables. For compressive neuropathies including tarsal tunnel syndrome, Morton’s neuroma, and deep peroneal nerve entrapment, we offer both diagnostic nerve block injection and surgical decompression when conservative measures are insufficient. Michigan neuropathy patients can call Balance Foot & Ankle at (810) 206-1402 for evaluation at our Howell or Bloomfield Hills office.

Michigan patients who have been living with foot or ankle symptoms — and are not sure whether they need professional care or just better self-management — can get a clear, honest answer at Balance Foot & Ankle. Our fellowship-trained podiatric surgeons provide thorough evaluations that diagnose the actual cause of foot and ankle problems, not just the most common cause of a given symptom. Many Michigan patients are surprised to learn that a condition they thought required expensive treatment responds well to a precisely targeted conservative approach: the right custom orthotic, a specific injection, appropriate physical therapy guidance, or a footwear change that addresses their particular foot structure and gait mechanics. Others who have tried conservative measures extensively discover that a straightforward surgical procedure would resolve their problem more reliably than continued symptom management. Getting that clarity — an accurate diagnosis and a realistic treatment plan — is what a podiatric evaluation at Balance Foot & Ankle provides. Michigan patients with foot or ankle symptoms can call (810) 206-1402 to schedule at our Howell or Bloomfield Hills office.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does treatment take to work?

Most patients see improvement in 4-8 weeks with consistent conservative care. Persistent symptoms after 8 weeks need imaging and escalation.

When is surgery needed?

Surgery is reserved for cases that fail 3-6 months of conservative care, structural deformities, or fractures requiring stabilization.

Is this covered by insurance?

Most diagnostic visits and conservative treatments are covered by Medicare and major insurers. Custom orthotics often require diabetic or post-surgical justification.
