Ankle Pain
Stiffness, soreness and tenderness, and a limited range of movement can keep you sidelined for weeks. If you’re suffering from ankle pain, hoping that it will go away on its own, you could be doing much greater damage to your feet and ankle than you think. Ankle pain is your body’s way of telling you something is wrong. At Dynamic Medical Centers, our expert podiatrists diagnose and treat the root cause of ankle pain, focusing on conservative treatments, such as physical therapy and custom orthotics, to avoid surgery and other invasive, painful procedures. If you’re having trouble working, taking care of your family, or even walking from one room to the next, it’s time to schedule an appointment with our clinic. Give us a call or fill out our secure online contact form today.
Ankle Pain Is A Sign Of Many Different Medical Conditions
Ankles consist of tendons, small, delicate bones, ligaments, and muscles, and damage to any one of these components can result in debilitating ankle pain and a loss of independence. The complex joints of your ankles allow you to run, play, work, and go about your life independently. Many of us don’t realize how much we rely on properly functioning ankles until something goes wrong.
Ankle pain can occur after an injury, like a sprain, strain, or broken bone, due to a degenerative condition, or simply due to the normal aging process.
Along with ankle pain, there are other symptoms that mean it’s time to see our expert podiatrist:
- Redness and warmth along the joint and sensitivity to the touch
- Bruising and swelling in a specific location
- Reduced range of motion, including difficulty walking
We start with a physical exam to determine the cause of your ankle pain. Then, we may recommend lab work or imaging, like an X-ray, MRI, or ultrasound. Our clinic can treat
- Ankle, pilon, and talus fractures
- Toe, forefoot, and heel fractures
- Achilles tendinitis and tendon tears
- Posterior tibial tendon dysfunction
- Sprained ankles
- Stress fractures of the foot and ankle
- Plantar fasciitis and bone spurs
We can also address conditions like rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis that cause ankle pain. Our goal is to treat the primary cause of ankle pain with the least invasive methods, including immobilization in a cast or splint, physical therapy, RICE, and anti-inflammatory medications. Our caring podiatrists are ready to get you back on your feet quickly.
