By Mayo Clinic staffYour doctor will consider your medical history and examine your feet. As part of the examination, your doctor will observe your feet from the front and the back and ask you to stand on your toes so he or she can view the mechanics of your feet.
To view the interior structure and bones of your foot, your doctor may request an imaging test of your foot, which may include an X-ray, a CT scan or MRI scan.
