You should be saying R-lipoic acid better for nerve damage....just because a 'doctor' says something doesn't mean its pure fact 😮

[@linda6987]

Wow! I’ve been to 2 podiatrists the first one thanked me for wasting his time. (I did tell him surgery wasn’t an option). He made me feel like a freak when I wasn’t aware of what Cavus was and made me feel deformed. Got up and left. The second one told me absolutely no way he would do surgery on me. Thank you for the share

I had foot corrective surgery, in south africa in 2017, pain decreased by 50'/, thnx to dr.Russött.

[@lynnbelcher2035]

What kind of Dr would I see for this condition

[@DrTomBiernacki]

Usually the referral for this would be with a neurologist for initial evaluation. You can ask your primary care doctor or specialist for a referral and nerve conduction studies can be done in the neurologists office.

Foot corrective surgery with screws and plates planted into feet, I have 50'/, less pain and now walk with normal like normal people.

[@Lollakuk]

I cant find your video of alpha lipoic acid that you mentioned here.

[@Moonlava722]

And this stinks. I cannot wear normal shoes. I rarely go anywhere due to shoes not fitting.

[@DrTomBiernacki]

The favorites I see now are Brooks ghost max or Hoka shoes for this foot type. The rockerbottom design can really help. I would recommend going to one of the shoe stores and try walking around in these and see if they help. Also a laceup ankle brace can make a big difference for ankle stability!

[@bec7080]

Oh this is exciting! This is the next thing that i was going to talk to my rheumatologist and neurologist in my next appointment. I was just diagnosed with caveous foot and i have neuropathy and I am currently doing PT for both being able to lift my feet and for my legs and back. I went out on short term disability because i was not able to sit out before i started PT. Because i have Sjogrens this wasn't really checked. And i never had anyone mention the caveus foot until now. The EMG never showed much but my biopsy did. I say it's exciting because you said there may be treatments. Any kind of treatment is good because my sjogrens is progressing and that's hard. (I just got the don joy otc orthotic and it works great because i was falling CONSTANTLY)

[@DrTomBiernacki]

I just added the treatment video now 😊, kzbin.info/www/bejne/eWXKaYWka6yUmdE

[@bec7080]

@@DrTomBiernacki I appreciate seeing these videos. Even though I live in an area with great doctors sometimes this information takes a while to get around! And I promise I'm not trying to self diagnose, it's something I noticed after the orthopedic specialist I went to because I kept spraining my ankle a couple months ago diagnosed me with caveus foot. Sometimes you and your doctors get so focused on one thing and you don't think about other things

[@sivadavarg]

I had no idea CMF is genetic! My sister who passed away last year, unfortunately, had severe Type 2 Diabetes and peripheral neuropathy. She had very high arches (didn’t know that was a characteristic) and was diagnosed with CMF. I assumed it was a comorbidity of Type 2 Diabetes. Thankfully, she had no pain whatsoever in her feet and ankles…completely numb (maybe not totally a good thing). As for other family members…we have a large extended family on my mother’s side…seven aunts and uncles snd 20 first cousins, but my sister is the only relative I’m aware of with CMT. Thank you for your invaluable educational videos!

[@DrTomBiernacki]

[@DrTomBiernacki]

For sure this is something that is probably much more common than the official diagnosis, but most people never get a true diagnosis with a neurologist as it does not get severe enough in my opinion.

[@karrskarr]

Very interesting! Curious, and wonder if CMT disease can be a cause for bi-lateral carpal tunnel syndrome in some people?

[@DrTomBiernacki]

Usually it would probably not cause carpal tunnel which is more of a compression due to ergonomics, stress or even stiffness issues such as inflammation or high blood sugar.

[@DrTomBiernacki]

CMT is specifically a genetic deterioration where the nerves cannot function properly.

[@davidniven9996]

Bilateral carpal tunnel after the age of 60 can be connected to a heart disease Transthyretin Amyloidosis.

[@ThatAnimateGuy]

How I like to think about cmt is just to have a good diet and exercise and it wouldn’t effect that much not until the disease picks up. I have type 2a

[@RegardoDrulor-bh7wk]

Your most dedication towards your work has gave me full confidence, Doctor Orias we do need trust with a great sense of humor to get things accomplished, I never thought there would be a cure for hsv1 & 2,❤❤😅

[@sivadavarg]

SPECIFIC CONDITION REQUEST: I have had two hammertoe surgeries on my left second toe. Now, my toe “leans” too far to the left and is overlapping my third toe. It is in worse condition than before. The orthopedic surgeon simply wants to remove a wedge of bone from the upper segment so the upper section will be more straight. However, that will do nothing to correct the discomfort and strain at the base of my toe. My physical therapist friend said there are now PT techniques that can release a hammertoe. Any suggestions for re-straightening my toe?

[@carlostokkink902]

Hello, What is your oppinion About CMT type 1 and taking testtostrone. I dont use it but i am intrested becouse I train 5 Times a week I only lift weights. I do this for 3 years now.

Is CMT connected to other whole body issues, like general nervous sensitivity?

Thank you so much for the video I wish there were more podiatrist around here like you because I went to one for a year and all he did was want to cut my toenails and sand my feet when I had this disease on top of it I did drywall for over 25 years and whore stilts on my feet which most likely advanced the charcots if you have any affiliates in Massachusetts please send me the link one more thing to add he had no CLUE!!!! that i have charcots, it got to the point where I had to see a foot surgeon where I was properly diagnosed.
