Deposits of cholesterol, known as xanthomas, can accumulate in the Achilles tendon as a result of high cholesterol levels in the body. The tiny lumps can be alleviated by general strategies to lower cholesterol; however, xanthomas may need further treatment, such as a biopsy of the legion that does not rupture the nodule.

“When it comes to my feet, I was hesitant about seeing any Doctor. But a friend recommended Dr. Binh Nguyen at Advance Podiatry. I should tell you that not one time, I felt any sort of pain.

“I could not have asked for better care! After nearly a year and a half of nobody being able to help me with a Hemangioma in my foot, Dr Cruz stepped up to the challenge. He always listened to my concerns and addressed everything honestly–even if it wasn’t what I wanted to hear. After seeing […]

“Healthy Feet Podiatry has a friendly and caring office staff and Dr. Todd Brennan is GREAT. Due to my insurance, I was unable to use the same Dr. as my husband. As I didn’t like the care he was getting, that was OK. I get fast appointments and “my Doctor is on-time for them”! I […]

“Very rarely do you go to any physician and get immediate relief. I was in extreme pain yesterday and I feel 100% better today. I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Bret Brennan and the support staff. I had never been there before and I felt like they were generally happy to see me […]

“Dr. Todd Brennan and the entire staff at Healthy Feet Podiatry are the best! They were able to get me an appointment the same day I called, processed my insurance and most importantly tended to my foot issue. Dr. Brennan personally called to check on me later in the afternoon that day to fully explain […]
