Ongoing foot or ankle pain affecting your walking, work or sport?
foot and ankle pain
Foot and ankle pain is very common and can develop for many different reasons. It may come on suddenly after an injury, gradually through overuse, or without a clear cause.
Foot and ankle pain may be linked to problems such as tendon overload, joint irritation, nerve involvement, biomechanical stress, previous injury, or underlying medical conditions.
Because there are many possible causes, accurate assessment is essential before treatment begins.
