This podcast hosted by Dr. Justin Dusicysses talks about MSK sports podiatry, what is plantar plate injury, how to treat MSK as a podiatrist, clinical research, 3d gait analysis, zero gravity treadmills, and his love of field hockey.
Podiatry was not his first idea for a profession but from being excluded from the military and physical therapy Nick picked it. Luckily, there is a whole aspect/ specialty of sports-based – MSK based podiatry and he just fell in love with that aspect of the profession and now wouldn’t change his career.
Nick Knight’s most common condition is forefoot pain, particularly the plantar plate. I ask him to walk us through a typical treatment protocol. Most podiatrists focus on the plantar fascia and heel area so tune in to the forefoot answer. Knight, DPM will also discuss how he is publishing his findings for conservative treatment for plantar plate injuries because for now, the research is heavy on surgical interventions.
