Orthopedic Specialists Focus on Pain Relief without Invasive Procedures
If you are in significant pain, you may be considering surgery. Before you talk to a foot surgeon, first work with our orthopedic foot specialists to explore alternative methods for pain relief and true healing. Our orthopedic foot specialists will use the most advanced technology and state-of-the-art diagnostic imaging, as well as their experience and knowledge to form a diagnosis of the root cause of your foot problems. X-Rays show a clear picture of the bones while MRIs and CT scans can show detailed images of muscles, tissue, or ligaments that may be the cause of the damage to your foot. Further testing such as EMG testing evaluates the electrical output of muscles to locate muscles that have atrophies or nerve problems that are connected to the muscles. An NCV test specifically tests nerve output as electrical signals are sent throughout the nerves in the foot to test for abnormalities.
Once your injury is properly diagnosed, our specialists will discuss options with you to implement noninvasive procedures to help your foot heal properly so you can experience long-term pain relief. Some forms of noninvasive procedures may include ice therapy, physical therapy, massage therapy, or injections. Other minimally-invasive procedures such as tendon repair or cartilage replacement can also bring about relief with little to no recovery time. When medically necessary, our orthopedic foot surgeons can perform a variety of procedures necessary to remedy your foot pain.
If foot pain has affected your life, it’s time to get help and find real relief. Contact AICA Orthopedics today to receive high-quality care from experienced orthopedic specialists.
Orthopedic Specialists for Foot Pain
One of the first steps to treating foot pain is to strengthen the muscles and tendons in the foot and improve the range of motion. A physical therapist works with you to provide exercises that can improve the use of your foot. They will also work with you after a procedure to regain motion in your foot once again. Chiropractors specialize in the musculoskeletal system. They examine joints and can perform adjustments if joints are out of alignment. Nerve pain can be extremely painful. Neurologists at AICA Orthopedics will assess your nerve function and treat nerve pain such as pinched nerves in the foot to bring about relief.
If your foot pain becomes increasingly worse, orthopedic foot surgeons can operate on the problem area to fix the injury so you can use your foot as normal once again. Working with our team of orthopedic doctors will ensure that you find a solution to your foot pain. A comprehensive treatment plan may involve one, two, or several foot doctors working together with you so you can experience complete healing. If you don’t have proper use of your foot and it is affecting how you sit, stand, walk, run or perform, then you will want to consult with AICA Orthopedics.
