Ankle Pain Treatment Dulwich Hill

Five Dock Physiotherapy & Sports Injury Centre proudly offer quality ankle pain treatment to residents in Dulwich Hill and surrounding suburbs.

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. When dealing with ankle injuries, it is vital that they are treated promptly to prevent unnecessary strain on the joint that could develop into a long term problem.

Your ankle’s muscles and tendons control the way you move and are stabilised on your feet. 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

There is no single cause for ankle pain, yet it is important that the cause is accurately diagnosed by your podiatrist in order to develop appropriate treatment. The injury may stem from damage to the bone, muscle, tendon or ligament and a variety of tests can enable the source of pain to be located.

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.
