  • What exercises help with ankle joint pain?

    Before starting an exercise regimen, you need to determine the cause of the pain by seeing a podiatrist or orthopedist. A physical therapist is your best source for exercises and modalities to help relieve pain and strengthen those structures around the ankle. READ MORE

  • Which gel is best for ankle sprain?

    Diclofenac 1% is standard regardless of manufacturer and is over the counter. The 2% formula is better, but requires a prescription and may not be covered by insurance. It tends to be expensive. READ MORE

  • Which exercise can I do for foot pain?

  • What shoes to wear with a toe bunion?

  • Can a chiropractor help a sprained ankle?

    If the sprain is grade 3, surgical intervention is indicated and out of the scope of chiropractic. It may have some benefit if the chiropractor has foot and ankle training other than just spinal. An MRI would help determine the extent of the ankle injury before and treatment is initiated. READ MORE

  • How many days should you ice a sprained foot?

    After an acute injury, ice should be applied 10 minutes on followed by 30 minutes off for the first 2-3 days to minimize swelling. After this period, heat can be used to increase blood flow and assist in healing. READ MORE

  • What helps heel pain?

    Without more specific information, difficult to say what may be the cause. Generally applying ice and taking an anti-inflammatory like Motrin or Aleve (assuming no allergies to aspirin) will help. READ MORE

  • I think I broke or sprained my foot

    I would proceed to an orthopedic urgent care facility or a podiatrist who can see you immediately to have it evaluated. READ MORE

  • Foot Swelling

    You may have an infection called cellulitis. You should see your primary care physician. READ MORE

  • Ankle subluxation

    My first question is was your ankle evaluated by a podiatrist or orthopedist. An MRI would show if there are torn ligaments. If these consultations have not been done, that would be the first order. Do so as soon as possible. In the meantime apply ice, elevate no running, stooping, jumping or prolonged standing. Anti-inflammatory such as Motrin to help reduce pain and swelling. READ MORE

  • Pain and Swelling in Foot

    The medication you have taken is a good start. Without a more thorough history, it's hard to tell what is going on. A vascular and orthopedic work up should be considered. A CT or MRI of your foot would be indicated. READ MORE

  • Diabetic Toe

    Proceed to a podiatrist as soon as possible. The nail will need to be removed and placed on antibiotics and topical wound care. READ MORE

  • Buzzing/ Achy Foot

    You need to have an X-ray taken of your foot and toe to make sure there is no fracture. I suggest you see a podiatrist as soon as possible. READ MORE

  • Can I take tramadol after ankle surgery?

    Yes, it's a common post-op analgesic. I need to ask if it was prescribed by your surgeon. If not, you should contact him to see if he approves before you start taking it. Tramadol is considered a schedule IV controlled medication and should not be shared. Get Outlook for iOSREAD MORE

  • Discolored toe

    Difficult to say from just a photo and no history. You may have a contusion with a collection of blood under the nail. The toe appears swollen and slightly redden compared to the toe next to it. I recommend you see a podiatrist to definitively diagnose the problem. As a diabetic, you should be seeing a podiatrist routinely. READ MORE

  • Can you fix toe bunions without surgery?

    Bunions are bone deformities and no amount of stretching and bracing will correct the problem. The degree of deformity will dictate the type of procedure and duration of the disability. READ MORE

  • How can I shrink my bunion naturally?

    A bunion is an enlargement of the bone on the head of the first metatarsal and cannot shrink. To return to a more functional and aesthetic condition will require a surgical procedure. READ MORE

  • Can you fix the nerve damage in the foot?

    If a nerve is injured but not cut, your injury is more likely to heal. Injuries in which the nerve has been completely severed are very difficult to treat and recovery may not be possible. If your injury is caused by a medical condition, your primary care doctor or neurologist will treat the underlying condition. READ MORE
