Physical Therapy for Foot Pain and Ankle Pain

The foot and ankle are complex mechanical structures that work together for optimal function. The ankle joint consists of three bones and various connective tissues, while the foot contains approximately two dozen bones, 30 joints, and over 100 muscles, tendons, and ligaments.

Foot pain and ankle pain are common complaints among active people, often related to running, walking on uneven surfaces, or jumping. Less active people also commonly suffer from symptoms at the feet and ankles. These ailments are treatable, but if left untreated, they can cause major problems, possibly affecting the functioning of your hip, knees, and back.

The Most Common Causes of Foot Pain and Ankle Pain

Foot pain and ankle pain can occur in relation to an acute injury or develop over time due to a chronic, underlying condition. Typically, foot pain or ankle pain occurs when the foot twists inward, and the outside of the ankle is stretched or torn.

Diagnostic terms related to foot pain and ankle pain include the following:

  • Achilles Tendonitis
  • Arthritis
  • Bunion
  • Bursitis
  • Fallen Arches
  • Fractures
  • Plantar Fasciitis
  • Neuroma
  • Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome
  • Tendonitis
  • Shin Splints
  • Strains and Sprains
