What doctors treat foot pain?

Pick one: All doctors can treat foot pain. I would recommend a podiatrist or orthopedist.

Mainly podiatrists.: There are some foot and ankle specialists who are orthopedic surgeons. If the pain is caused by a medical condition such as gout, then a primary care doctor or rheumatologist can deal with it, but if you start with the podiatrist, that would probably be the best.
