Foot infections?
Those appear to be plantar warts. A podiatrist can address the condition with conservative or more aggressive treatments. Dr. Weiss READ MORE

The anesthesia is temporary and should resolve on it's own. If not I suggest you make a follow up appointment. Dr. Weiss READ MORE

What kind of anesthesia is used for ankle joint surgery?
General anesthesia is often used. Sometimes local anesthesia with IV sedation is used. READ MORE

Achilles question?
It sounds like a strain in the Achilles’ tendon. Absent being seen by a podiatrist it sometimes helps to wear a lift in the shoe to offload the heel. Continue to ice it. READ MORE
My feet are burning with covid?
Covid has been found to cause this condition called postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome, or POTS, a blood circulation disorder https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/health/conditions-and-diseases/postural-orthostatic-tachycardia-syndrome-pots. There are medications prescribed that can minimize symptoms but you should be seen by a podiatrist for that to rule out other conditions. Hydration helps as well. When you have some improvement physical therapy can be added. READ MORE
Ingrown toenail?
It sounds like an ingrown nail. Resolution of the symptoms will need a visit to the podiatrist who will need to remove the corner of the nail that is causing inflammation. READ MORE
Does a dislocated ankle need surgery?
Without seeing the X-rays, it is hard to assess. Generally, I would say yes, but you need to see a specialist. READ MORE
