Foot, Ankle, And Heel Pain

“End Your Foot, Ankle and Heel Pain, Naturally – Without Surgeries, Pain Pills Or Steroid Injections”

When you have foot, ankle, or heel pain, it can significantly affect your quality of life. Lots of the patients we see have had to give up something they love – like running, hiking, playing sports, or training in the gym. Instead, they're forced to stay home nursing the pain.

But what’s causing your pain? Why have you suddenly gone from fit, active, and healthy to immobile and piling on the pounds? That’s the question that most of our patients want us to answer.

With feet and ankles, the site of your pain gives us clues on the cause of the pain. For instance, if you have stabbing pain in the heels and more intense pain when you take your first few steps in the morning. It could be plantar fasciitis – a condition caused by damage to the plantar fascia (that connects your heel to your toes).

Another condition that affects the heels is Achilles tendinitis – a painful condition that we usually see in runners. Another cause of foot, heel, and ankle pain is overuse and improper footwear. But they are just a few of the issues that can affect the feet, heels, and ankle.

That’s why even if your pain doesn’t feel too severe, you should still consult a Physical Therapist to locate the source of your pain and prevent future problems.

“Why Me?”...

“Why Do I Still Have Foot & Ankle Pain After 6 Months?”...

“Why Hasn’t It Gone Away?”

Have you had Foot, And Ankle Pain for seven days or more?

You've probably already seen a medical doctor if you answered yes to this question. Right? But they sent you away with a prescription for Advil, rest, and more days off work, along with a half-hearted invitation to come back and see them if things don’t improve.

In fact, you’ve probably already been back to see your MD because you’re STILL in pain, and they gave you an even stronger prescription for pain pills and more unhelpful advice to rest and take it easy. Except you can't take it easy because you're in pain, and you want your life back – the life you loved before the pain started.

Does that sound about right?

But why am I still in pain?

There are so many potential reasons why your back pain is lasting so long. But the most important thing we want to say is don't look to the internet or your friends and relatives for a diagnosis. So many people online and in our social circles like to offer unsolicited medical advice. But, in most cases, it isn't credible – sometimes even dangerous, and it's usually based on their experience, not your specific set of symptoms and medical history.

You’re probably jumping to conclusions yourself about the source of your Foot or Ankle Pain – especially if it isn't something obvious like an injury. But, then, you're blaming yourself – for that time, you wore improper footwear and walked across town or went too hard too soon. Or maybe it’s just your age, right? Perhaps you're too old for running?

But the actual cause could just be tight fascia that developed gradually over time due to overuse and lack of stretching and mobility exercises. So we help you find the root cause – so you can stop guessing.
