Foot and Ankle Pain Treatment Hamilton Mountain - Gage Physiotherapy and Foot Clinic

Foot / Ankle Pain TREATMENT HAMILTON MOUNTAIN

“How to Put a Stop to Foot and Ankle Pain - Without Taking Painkillers, Without Injections and Without Having to Wait to See the Doctor!”

If you’ve got foot or ankle pain, stiffness or an ache - it’s very tempting to think that it’s nothing, that it will go away on its own. Or, you pass it off as having just “stepped awkwardly”, or that it’s just a “spasm” or a bit of stiffness that “everyone” your age suffers from...

There’s no obvious reason why it happened - but it doesn’t seem to be shifting!

If that’s happening to you, you’re not alone - and we hear this type of thing all the time. In fact, Foot and Ankle Pain is one of THE most common problems that we see in our physiotherapy clinic in Hamilton, ON.

And when it comes to living with foot and ankle pain, everybody we see wants to know

“Why is This Happening to Me?”...

or

“Why Am I Still Suffering With Foot or Ankle Pain After Putting Up With It For 6 Months (Maybe More)?”

Most people think that when they get foot and ankle pain, it’s just going to go away on its own.

That they’ll wake up one morning and like “magic”, it’ll be as if foot and ankle pain never happened… But then 6 months later you’re still living with foot or ankle pain - often even worse than it was when it came on.

Does That Sound Like You?

Another scenario we see all the time in our physiotherapy clinic is when people go to the Doctors, and the Doctor tells them to rest and “try these painkillers” and “see how it goes”.

But this is rarely ever the best advice and often 6 weeks later, they end up going back to the Doctor again because it hasn’t got any better. Worse, they’re often given yet another prescription of even stronger pills, and advised MORE rest. This is madness and explains why so many people aged 50+ are suffering with chronic foot and ankle pain.

Has This Type of Thing Happened to You?

Why else does foot and ankle pain last longer than it should? Well, it’s easy to get confused because you’ve been told different things, by different people. There’s lots of people out there who are happy to dispense advice - but not all of it is credible.

Maybe you think your foot or ankle pain was caused by doing something - like lifting or stepping awkwardly - but really it was caused by years and years of poor posture that caused the muscles in your lower leg and foot to become weak and the lifting or the awkward stepping was just the EFFECT of that.

If you don’t know what you’re doing - foot and ankle pain can be very confusing and because of this, many people just end up accepting it as ‘part of life’ - as if it’s normal, and ‘just the way it is’.

Do You Feel That Way Too?

If You’re Currently Living With Foot or Ankle Pain, Here are 7 Reasons Why It Could Be Lasting Longer Than It Should:

  • You thought it would go away on its own - but it didn’t.
  • You went to the Doctor who told you to rest and take painkillers - but the pills did nothing to help your foot or ankle, and as soon as they wore off chronic foot and ankle pain struck again.
  • A family member, or friend, told you that everybody gets foot or ankle pain as they get older, so you just accepted it.
  • You tried other healthcare professionals, or a physiotherapist in the past, but nothing they said or did seemed to help.
  • You tried YouTube exercises but they either didn’t do a thing, or made your foot or ankle pain ten times worse.
  • You thought it would be a good idea to rest because your foot and ankle pain was so bad, but all that did was make it feel even more stiff and tight.
  • You decided to get a few “massages” hoping that would fix the pain, but all they did was feel nice and relaxing, and didn’t do anything to fix it long term…

If any of these have happened to you - we would love to help you by inviting you to book a call to talk with one of our physiotherapists to find out what can be done to help you. The fact that you’ve tried any or all of these things already is actually a GOOD THING because when you know what doesn’t work - you are closer to finding the thing that does!

The phone call is complementary and there is no obligation to book any appointments with us after the call is over. Our goal is to help you make the right decision about what to do next for the best.

What Can I do to Get Rid of My Foot or Ankle Pain Quickly?...

Well, here's 4 things you can do:

  • First off, you need to make a decision about getting help. So many people procrastinate for so long, thinking that foot or ankle pain will ‘just go away with time’, but then 6 months down the line they’re still putting up with it, and nothing’s changed… Or it gets worse
  • Next, do the RIGHT exercises - one of the best things to help you ease your foot or ankle pain is to do the right series of progressed exercises - the right exercises given to you by a physiotherapist will help reduce pain, and allow you to move freely again quick - and make sure that the problems don’t come back anytime soon (or aggravate your knee even more like some exercises do).
  • Avoid sitting and long periods of rest - ever tried to get up from the sofa after resting for a while, but you struggle because your foot or ankle feels so painful and tight? That’s because one of the worst things you can do that adds to foot and ankle pain is rest and sitting for long periods of time. Too much rest, and sitting in awkward positions makes your ankle stiff and tight. It would really help if you were given appropriate strengthening exercises for better posture, alongside hands-on treatment, to get you active and healthy as quickly as possible.
  • Get real, “hands-on” physiotherapy - Physiotherapy is proven to help people with foot and ankle pain. In fact at Gage Physiotherapy and Foot Clinic it’s one of the most common injuries we see. If your foot and ankle pain is affecting your job, your ability to keep active, if it threatens your independence or gets in the way of spending quality time with family and friends - physiotherapy can help get you back to living the life you deserve as quickly as possible.
