Podiatrist: Podiatrists are the experts of the foot and ankle, not only in their training also in the vast amount of experience seeing and treating these cases.

Agree with Dr. J: It is generally a good idea to start with a general practitioner and let her/him figure out if you need to a podiatrist or an orthopedic surgeon, or none of those. Have a healthy diet, exercise, drink plenty of water, have safe sex, and get HPV vaccine. Wish you good health! Nutrition: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/.
