Problems related to the feet and ankles can be seen in individuals and athletes of all ages due to congenital, trauma and strain. The ankle is structurally very strong due to the arrangement of the bones and ligaments that make up it. However, in the strains that occur, the ankle is the main area of injury due to the full burden of the body. Ice compress, plaster or surgery if broken, surgery can be preferred as treatment if the ligament injury is very advanced.
What is Physiotherapy?
Physiotherapy is the name given to the treatment of patients with electric current, heat or cold application, exercises or various waves to restore functional movements that are reduced due to injury, disease, trauma or old age. Doctors and physiotherapists work together in the relevant treatment centers. The aim of physiotherapy is to ensure that individuals fulfill vital factors in a healthy way. Physical therapy techniques which previously consisted of massage, traction and exercise have increased day by day and have given physiotherapists the authority to work in hospitals, medical centers, rehabilitation centers, orthopedic clinics and many other fields.
