 Physical Therapy

Physical therapy can often help decrease the pain and swelling in a painful area of the foot or ankle. Such problems as heel spurs, bursitis, plantar fasciitis, bunions, corns and calluses - and post-operative surgical conditions - often respond well to physical therapy.

Common kinds of physical therapy may include hot packs, massage, electrical stimulation, ultra sound, paraffin baths, and diathermy to relieve pain and swelling and to increase range of motion.

Physical therapy can often help decrease the pain and swelling in a painful area of the foot or ankle. Heel spurs, bursitis, plantar fasciitis, bunions, corns and calluses, as well as many post-operative surgical conditions, respond well to physical therapy.

Common kinds of physical therapy may include hot packs, massage, paraffin baths, electrical stimulation, ultrasound, and diathermy (deep heating of tissues through use of electric current) to relieve pain and swelling, increase range of motion, prevent joint stiffening, rebuild muscle strength, and support the proper alignment of foot structures.

Val Gregory, MSPT, discusses how functional applied science can help you recover faster from a foot injury.

http://www.footdoctorsnj.com

Applied functional science is the new wave to physical therapy. It is not just one muscle or one joint that allows to move.  So, since the body works as one unit it, is important to understand the sequencing the body goes through to accomplish a task.  Looking at the whole body as a structure working sequentially to efficiently move is the concept behind applied functional science.

Our team of specialists and staff believe that informed patients are better equipped to make decisions regarding their health and well being. For your personal use, we have created an extensive patient library covering an array of educational topics. Browse through these diagnoses and treatments to learn more about topics of interest to you. Or, for a more comprehensive search of our entire Web site, enter your term(s) in the search bar provided.

As always, you can contact our office to answer any questions or concerns.

1.Don't ignore foot pain. It is not normal. If you experience any type of persistent pain in the foot or ankle, please contact our office.
2.Inspect your feet regularly. Pay attention to changes in color and temperature. Look for thick or discolored nails (a sign of developing fungus), and check for cracks or cuts in the skin. Peeling or scaling on the soles of feet may indicate Athlete's Foot. Any growth on the foot is not considered normal.
3.Wash your feet regularly, especially between the toes, and be sure to dry them completely.
4.Trim toenails straight across, but not too short. Be careful not to cut nails in corners or on the sides; this can lead to ingrown toenails. Persons with diabetes, poor circulation, or heart problems should not treat their own feet, because they are more prone to infection.
5.Make sure that your shoes fit properly. Purchase new shoes later in the day when feet tend to be at their largest, and replace worn out shoes as soon as possible.
6.Select and wear the right shoe for each sport or activity that you are engaged in (e.g., running shoes for running).
7.Alternate shoes—don't wear the same pair of shoes every day.
8.Avoid walking barefooted. Your feet will be more prone to injury and infection. At the beach or when wearing sandals always use sunblock on your feet.
9.Be cautious when using home remedies for foot ailments. Self-treatment may turn a minor problem into a major one.
10.If you are a diabetic, please contact our office and schedule a check-up at least once a year.
