What is the treatment for foot and ankle sports injuries?

At Abacoa Podiatry and Leg Vein Center, Dr. Cedeno prescribes treatment protocols that repair damage at the source, which means restoring your foot or ankle to its pre-injury state.

There are a wide range of ways to accomplish this goal, but your recovery usually includes rest, elevation, prescribed exercises, and pain relief. The pain relief can take many forms, including anti-inflammatory medication, ice, and injection therapy.

Regenerative medicine includes injections of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) or stem cells. This can decrease inflammation around your injury while stimulating the growth of new tissue to replace the weakened or torn areas.

If nonsurgical modalities don’t fully heal your sports injury, Dr. Cedeno may recommend foot and ankle surgery. He has advanced training in many innovative minimally invasive procedures to repair damaged tendons, ligaments, and cartilage using very small incisions.

For any foot or ankle sports injuries, call the podiatric sports medicine experts at Jupiter Laser and Regenerative Medicine or book an appointment online today.
