Physical Therapy
Decreasing pain and swelling.
Physical therapy can often help decrease the pain and swelling in a painful area of the foot or ankle. Heel spurs, bursitis, plantar fasciitis, as well as many post-operative surgical conditions, respond well to physical therapy.
Common kinds of physical therapy may include a massage, electrical stimulation, and ultrasound to relieve pain and swelling, increase range of motion, prevent joint stiffening, rebuild muscle strength, and support the proper alignment of foot structures.
