Ankle Pain Relief

If you have pain on the outside of your ankle, it could be due to an old injury that did not heal properly. Your ankle joints will become more painful as they become more unstable.

Ankle pain will occur if one of the three bones in your ankle is broken (tibia, fibula, or talus). Ankle fractures may necessitate weeks of rest to heal properly.

Bursitis occurs when tendons rub against the anti-friction sacs known as “bursae,” resulting in flat feet. While having flat feet is usually painless, having them out of alignment with your knees can cause your ankles to hurt or swell.

Fortunately, our Wauwatosa, WI physical therapy clinic has assisted in the rehabilitation of numerous ankle injuries. Allow us to assist you as well!

Arthritis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by joint pain. Osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis are the most common types. Both types of arthritis can be dangerous to the ankle joints and affect people of all ages.

The two most usual ankle injuries, sprains, and strains, are frequently misinterpreted. While a muscle or tendon is overstretched in a strain, a ligament is strained or torn in a sprain. Both of these ankle injuries should be examined by a medical professional to be sure no permanent harm has been done.

An unexpected strain on the Achilles tendon can cause tiny tears and inflammation at the back of your ankle. Rest is necessary for your Achilles tendon to heal; otherwise, scar tissue may form, which only surgery can treat.
