Foot and Ankle
Foot and ankle pain may impede your daily activities due to injuries or chronic conditions.
Let’s explore the need for consultation and various courses of treatment:
- Common Foot and Ankle Conditions:
- Sprains and Strains: These injuries often result from twisting or overuse. Initial treatment involves rest, ice, compression, and elevation (R.I.C.E). Medication, splints, and physical therapy may also be recommended.
- Achilles Tendinitis: Inflammation of the Achilles tendon. Rest, rehabilitation, and behaviour changes can help manage it.
- Exertional Compartment Syndrome: Affects athletes and requires various therapies and interventions.
- Plantar Fasciitis: A common cause of heel pain, typically treated with self-care and lifestyle adjustments.
- Orthopaedic Consultation and Treatment:
- We diagnose the cause of pain and recommend personalised treatment plans. Treatment options include:
- Medication: Pain relief and inflammation management.
- Non-Surgical Approaches: Physical therapy, orthodontics, and lifestyle modifications.
