Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have achilles pain in both feet especially after getting up and walking on my feet after sitting and sleeping.My right heel pains more with swelling on the inside of my ankle.Ive seen an ortho MD and prescribed PT which only helped a little.Any more suggestions?
I suggest using anti-inflammatory medications such as Ibuprofen.
Some other suggestions are:
-Avoid putting weight on your leg as best you can. You may need crutches.
-Ice your injury for up to 20 minutes at a time as needed.
- Use an elastic bandage around the lower leg and ankle to keep down swelling.
-elevate your leg
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
