An ankle sprain is extremely common but with physical therapy, can happen over and over again always delaying the full recovery of the ankle. While a simple sprain seems like you can “just walk it off”, the ankle is weakened by the tendon and ligament damage. This means, because the ankle is weaker, it can not support your body’s weight and balance as well.
Arthritis is an awful degenerative condition that affects millions of Americans each year. At Cross Bay Physical Therapy, our goal is to significantly improve immobility and pain of arthritic joints. We want to make sure your daily life is as pain free as possible and the activities that you love are still accessible to you.
Foot pain sometimes feels like it just won’t go away. Physical Therapy can provide you the clarity, understanding, and activity you need to heal your feet and end foot pain. Some of the most common foot problems that we see in our office are plantar fasciitis, achilles tendinitis, and ankle sprains and fractures.
The elbow is easily irritated especially with a sudden increase in activity. Now with summer upon us, many people suffer elbow injuries by introducing new outdoor activities. The best advice that I can give is to start slowly and build the elbow up to intense activity. This way you elbow can get used to the new activity.
An ankle sprain can quickly become a chronic injury, where people spend weeks healing the ankle only to twist it again and have to start all over with the healing process. At Cross Bay Physical Therapy, our physical therapists ensure this does not happen to our patients.
