While your foot doctor would like to treat all foot and ankle conditions without surgery, it sometimes becomes unavoidable. If you have been advised surgery to treat your foot or ankle issues, read on to know the benefits you can expect after your recovery.
Lasting Pain Relief
If you’ve been suffering from chronic foot pain and discomfort and conservative measures haven’t brought you any relief, your podiatrist may recommend surgery. Surgery may be your best chance to get permanent pain relief you’ve been looking for.
Improved Mobility
Sometimes stiffness and limited range-of-motion makes it difficult for patients to move around. If that is the case and you have tried all non-invasive treatments without any benefit, surgery could be your only option for relief. In such cases, foot surgery could be the only way to improve foot and ankle function.
Resume Active Life
Your ability to return to daily activities will depend on your level of activity, the severity of your condition and the type of surgery you’ve undergone. Regardless of the period of recovery, remember that your foot surgery will help you get back to the active lifestyle you once had.
Chronic conditions like Plantar Fasciitis or a severe tear that prevent you from being physically active can be effectively treated with foot surgery.
