At Foot and Ankle Centers of Frisco, Little Elm, and McKinney, our podiatrists understand that heel pain can be a significant issue that can impact your daily life. That's why we offer ESWT (Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy) as a non-invasive treatment option for patients suffering from foot, ankle, or heel pain caused by these conditions:
- Plantar fasciitis
- Achilles tendonitis
- Soft tissue injuries of the foot, ankle, or heel
- Bone spurs in the foot, ankle, or heel
- Calcifications in the foot or ankle area
- Bursitis located in the ankle area
- Chronic tendon pain in the ankle or foot
Our experienced podiatrists administer ESWT treatment, which involves the use of shockwaves to stimulate the affected area, promoting improved blood flow to tendons and muscles. This increased blood flow helps to break down scar tissue that has built up over time and increases the production of collagen, which is essential for healthy connective tissue.
Depending on the severity of the patient's condition, our podiatrists may recommend a more advanced post-ESWT rehabilitation protocol. With the help of ESWT, damaged and weak tendons can heal faster, enabling patients to return to their normal lives sooner.
At Foot and Ankle Centers, we are committed to providing safe and effective non-surgical treatment options for our patients. If you are experiencing foot, ankle, or heel pain, contact us today to schedule an appointment and see if ESWT is right for you.
