Suggest Treatment For Pain In The Feet And Ankles

I have very bad pain in my feet and ankles to the point that I can hardly walk. Orthopedist said it was ankle arthritis but not bad. Podiatrist had no solution. I already had right hip and knee replacement. Have always been very athletic. Still swin 1 hour 3 times a week. But that exercise does not hurt my feet. Don t know what to do or what dr to see. I am also losing my balance because of the pain. Help me! E mail is YYYY@YYYY

Hello,

The symptoms are consistent with severe arthritis. Consult an orthopaedician and get evaluated. You can opt for a steroid injection to the joint as it has got the best results for this condition.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
