Foot & Ankle pain are really difficult to deal with. If they hurt, then you can’t walk properly, and that just makes everything else more difficult!

Depending on the pain, you might have had to stop doing essential things like walking or even driving to the shops as it hurts too much.

You might be tempted to go to the Doctor to get some painkillers to help you, but that’s actually the worst thing you can do.

Are You Worried About Your Foot Or Ankle Pain?

If you are, then you are right, as you should be!

You’ve probably had to change your routine, avoiding the things that cause you pain, such as walking or standing. It’s made things difficult, you’ve stopped doing the things you enjoy and you might be starting to lose your self-confidence. It might even be affecting how well you sleep.

Without the right sort of treatment, the pain and injury that you have will get progressively worse.

You may have been told to rest or go to the GP for some painkillers to help with the pain, so that you can continue to function.

But this is a bad idea. If you rest too much, as well as the issue that you have not recovering, you will start to feel a stiffness that you hadn’t felt before. The foot and ankle are designed to be mobile, so any long periods without moving will cause them to get stiff.

By taking medication, you are cancelling out the most important signal that your Foot or Ankle has a problem. The pain that you are feeling should be a warning sign that something is not right. The painkillers will stop you feeling the pain, which means you are free to continue damaging your ankle with reckless abandon!

The Foot and Ankle are a complex structure

that makes it possible for you to stand and be flexible such as on uneven terrain. In the Foot & Ankle, there are 28 bones, 33 joints and 112 ligaments that are controlled by 33 muscles. The ankle is also the joint where the lower leg bones (the tibia and the fibula) connect with the foot.

They provide you with stability, support your body weight, help you balance and act as a shock absorber. Without your feet or ankles, you wouldn’t be able to stand or walk!

Considering the complexity of the Foot/Ankle and the amount of work they get through in a lifetime, it’s not surprising that sometimes they need some maintenance when they go wrong!

What are the Main Causes of Foot & Ankle Pain?

Achilles Tendonitis or Tear it’s the largest tendon in your body and can become sore or swollen from overuse. People who play sports are the most likely to suffer from this, but men more than women.

Plantar Fasciitis the band of tissue under the foot becomes swollen or inflamed, causing a sharp pain, usually in the heel.

Ankle Sprain this is essentially when one of the ligaments in your ankle has overstretched and torn.

Stress Fracture caused by repetitive movements that gradually cause the bone to fracture

Heel Spur a bone growth on the heel bone, usually occurring under the heel where it attaches to the plantar fascia band.

I came to relieve physiotherapy with problems in both my legs and arms that had persisted for months. Within a matter of weeks Raj set me on an exercise routine that helped to remove the pain in both. Im only disappointed I didn't come sooner!

Aidan

Was recommended by my sister... I was suffering from chronic headaches and Raj was able to help me out with dramatic affects almost immediately. He’s also helped with a hip problem I have had for years... Thank you!!!

Richard Rees

Friendly and practical support for a problem with my shoulder which I had lived with for too long. The exercises to do at home were easy to complete and really helped speed up my recovery. Thank you Raj!

Ian Rippin

Had a lot of discomfort and pain in my neck and shoulder, saw Raj at short notice and feel a new person! Always professional and so knowledgeable, thoroughly recommend the practice.

Lisa and Mark Bond

First class service from the team! Easy to make an appointment and get prompt treatment... Raj is also very accommodating in flexing the appointments to suit personal circumstances. Happy to recommend!

Peter Murphy

I started physio a few weeks back and I can’t thank Raj enough, he’s friendly and he took the time to explain everything to me clearly and has given me so much advice in order to help and he’s managed to get rid of the pain I’ve been having for so long! I highly recommend!

Kirsty Fox

Messed up a muscle around my shoulder and Raj sorted it out, gave some quality advice to prevent it happening again... Couldn't ask for more.

Neil Riddaway

Thank you for your help getting me back to fitness enabling me to do long dog walks (To the pub) I have recommended Raj to friends who have also had effective sessions.

Paul Smail

Raj diagnosed my problem quickly, gave me exercises to help alleviate the problem and monitored my progress, went from painful to uncomfortable quickly and we're still working on a longer term fix.

Alan Harding

Raj is a great an experienced physio and a must visit when needed. Thanks for your help 🤗 I am now pain free 😀

Raj is a really attentive & thorough physiotherapist... he worked his magic on my injured back & after a few visits brought me back to life without pain... very informative of the injury & how to strengthen the muscles...

Darren Young

After an accident in the garden causing pain to lower back and legs I decided to visit Mohana for six sessions and I’ve found the experience to be great, the pain has now gone. Mohana was very professional and caring in her approach making sure the after massage pain was not too much. i would recommend Relive Physiotherapy to anyone instead of suffering weeks of pills and self healing. Many thanks to all the team.

Alan Wilson

I have struggled with debilitating back pain since my teenage years. Over the past 20 years I have visited numerous specialists, surgeons, chiropractors, and other physiotherapists. I have had a number of MRIs and even considered surgery. I was recommended Relive Physiotherapy by a friend and thought I would give it one last attempt before turning to surgery. All Mohana has asked of me is to be consistent and commit to my twice weekly appointments. I am two months into my therapy and have seen major improvements. I now have minimal pain, I can complete the simple tasks that I couldn’t before, like going on a walk, changing the bed, cooking dinner, the list goes on! My quality of life has completely changed! Mohana has not only alleviated the chronic pain I had, but also got to the root of the problem so we now know how to manage this long term; ensuring this isn’t a short-term solution. Relive Physiotherapy is brilliant.

Stephanie Windsor

We were referred to Relive through our health insurance company, to organize treatment for my brother following an injury to his wrist and shoulder. Mohana has been treating him over the past few weeks. There's been significant improvement in his condition. We would definitely recommend anyone needing treatment to try Relive.

Jack McKie

Mohana was very helpful in getting my father back on his feet after a hip injury. She was very professional and caring at the same time. We would highly recommend her.

Amit Phadke

The most powerful, gentle treatment I've ever had. Totally awesome treatment. Very professional and lovely service. Topclass Mohana happy. Kind. Powerful treatment.. can't wait to book more sessions..

heidi rhiann

I was in such pain in my back but Mohana made her magic and now I am able to move without fear of pain. Highly recommended

Irena Pritchard

I cannot recommend Mohanna and the team at Relive Physiotherapy enough. Following a knee replacement surgery, having completed the traditional post operative physio, I continued to struggle with pain and reduced mobility. Following just an initial few sessions with Mohanna, I noticed a definite improvement with reduced pain and increased mobility. I am now at the stage where I can cycle, go hiking and workout in the gym comfortably. I definitely would not be where I am today, with no pain and full mobility if it weren't for the wonderful Mohanna...thank you so much!
