Ankle injuries are very common and can occur to everyone. They can occur through sports or even everyday activities.
Ankle injuries are treated by podiatrists using a range of techniques to decrease pain and increase mobility. It’s important to treat ankle injuries as quickly as possible to avoid long term consequences.
The muscles and tendons in your ankle give stability to your entire foot. If you experience pain or have difficulty moving the ankle joint, it is important that you seek treatment from a healthcare professional.
Five Dock Physiotherapy & Sports Injury Centre offer quality physio care for ankle pain and injuries.
Causes
Ankle pain is caused by a number of factors including damage to muscle, tendon, bone and ligaments. It’s important to diagnose your exact condition promptly to avoid further damage.
Muscle weakness in the ankle can cause ligaments to stretch and strain. Another type of ankle injury is a fracture or break. The recovery from a break or fracture can be effectively treated by a podiatrist.
Treatment
The best treatments for ankle injuries often are those focused on prescribed exercises and hands on treatments. Physical treatments will restore normal motion of the joint, and loosen tense muscles around the ankle. Furthermore, your rehabilitation exercises are designed to quicken your recovery, and build strength to prevent further injury.
Your physiotherapists‘ treatment plan is tailored to your history, injury and physical goals. Regardless of your ankle pain’s cause- surgery, injury or other causes, your podiatrist will provide you with the treatment and long term solutions for recovery.
