FOOT &
ANKLE PAIN
Foot and ankle pain are the most common pain that people will experience in some point of their lives. The most common cases are soft tissue injuries such as sprains and strains. Normally such pains are short termed but if the pain persists or gets worse, it might be due to some underlying condition or structural changes in the foot or ankle.
Some of the symptoms includes:
​
-
Swelling in ankle or foot
-
Pain or stiffness worse in the morning
-
Sudden sharp pain when walking
-
Loss of sensation in your foot
-
Not able to stand or walk
​
-
Disc InjuryA disc works almost like a shock absorber, but over time they can become worn or damaged. Symptoms of a disc-related injury might include a loss of mobility in the neck, numbness into your shoulder or arm, and weakness in your neck.
-
Stiff NeckDifficulty moving the neck sideway without turning the entire body. It may also be accompanied by a headache, neck pain and shoulder pain or arm pain. In most cases, pain and stiffness go away naturally within a week.
-
WhiplashWhiplash injury occurs when there is a sudden jolt to the head and neck in any accident that may cause a forceful back-and-forth motion. Motor vehicle accident is the most common cause behind the whiplash injury, but can also happen in sports or other trauma.
