Specialized Foot and Ankle Pain Treatment for Long Term Recovery

Foot and ankle pain is a common ailment affecting millions of people globally. It can be caused by a variety of factors, such as injury, overuse in daily or strenuous activities, and certain medical conditions. Foot and ankle pain, either major or minor, can be debilitating, affecting your daily activities such as walking, running, and standing. Physical therapy is one of the most effective treatments for foot and ankle pain, as it can help reduce pain, improve mobility, and prevent further injury.

Why am I experiencing hip and knee pain?

The causes of foot and ankle pain can vary depending on the individual and their lifestyle. Here are some of the most common causes of foot and ankle pain:

  • Injury: Injuries to the foot and ankle, such as sprains, fractures, and dislocations, can cause pain and swelling.
  • Overuse: Overuse of the foot and ankle, such as running or walking long distances, can cause pain and inflammation in the tendons and ligaments. If you’re 
  • Medical Conditions: Certain medical conditions, such as arthritis, gout, and diabetes, can cause foot and ankle pain.
  • Improper Footwear: Wearing shoes that do not fit properly or provide adequate support can cause foot and ankle pain.

Symptoms of Foot and Ankle Pain

Foot and ankle pain can present in a variety of ways, depending on the cause of the pain. Some common symptoms of foot and ankle pain include:

  1. Pain and tenderness in the foot or ankle.
  2. Swelling and inflammation.
  3. Stiffness and limited mobility.
  4. Redness or warmth in the affected area.
  5. Difficulty walking or standing.

Physical Therapy for Foot and Ankle Pain

Physical therapy is an effective treatment option for foot and ankle pain. Physical therapists are experts in musculoskeletal disorders and can help patients manage their pain, improve their mobility, and prevent further injury. Here are some of the ways physical therapy can treat foot and ankle pain:

  1. Manual Therapy: Our physical therapists can use hands-on techniques such as massage, joint mobilization, and stretching to improve range of motion and reduce pain.
  2. Strengthening Exercises: The therapists at NYC Wellness can prescribe exercises to strengthen the muscles and improve balance, which can reduce pain and prevent future injury. 
  3. Modalities: Physical therapists can use modalities such as ultrasound, electrical stimulation, and heat or ice therapy to reduce pain and inflammation. There may be other specialized treatments added to your recovery plan, if our therapists deem necessary.
  4. Education: Physical therapists can educate patients on proper footwear, body mechanics, and exercises to prevent future injury. 

Improve Your Quality of Life by Treating Foot and Ankle Pain

Foot and ankle pain can significantly impact a person’s quality of life, making it difficult to perform daily activities and participate in physical activity. If left untreated, foot and ankle pain can lead to further injury and chronic pain with issues that will eventually need to be addressed. Because foot and ankle pain can be a sign of an underlying medical condition that requires treatment, it’s important to seek help to diagnose an issue and treat the pain.
