If you are someone who is living with foot or ankle pain know that YOU are looking in the RIGHT place for information. Too often people struggle for weeks, months, or even years before finally getting a solution that is right for their foot or ankle pain. You surely know a handful of family, friends, neighbors, or co-workers suffering as well.

Often people will attempt to ignore their foot problem, thinking it will just go away on its own. Thinking if they just stay off their feet or avoid the activities they enjoy it will disappear…but it doesn’t. Not only that, but it often gets worse, leaving the person in pain or limits their activity.

And now weeks or months later the person struggles with

• Walking upon getting out of bed or up from a chair

• Is unable to walk even a ½ mile for exercise

• Can only wear that 1 pair of comfy shoes

• Is unable to enjoy activities with family or friends

A major reason foot or ankle pain last is people are unsure not only the specific cause, but what to do. There is so much information out there (not all of it accurate) that leaves people hesitant and confused about the best option for them. Not only that but when it doesn’t work, they then become more skeptical about a treatment that may in fact be the right answer for them. This then leads to the inability to make a decision about what to do next…

What you should know is that foot and ankle pain are common issues treated at Zang PT. Every day patients come into the clinic searching for answers and solutions for their foot or ankle pain to keep them out of doctor’s offices and off pain medication.

Does this sound similar to you?

A very common story told by patients is they went to see their physician for their foot/ankle problem and they were prescribed medication, rest, and some generic exercises on a sheet of paper. They were then told to return in a month if they were no better. Well, not only were they not better but in fact worse. The exercises- no help at all…Why? Because they were general and not specific to their problem. So they are then sent to some other specialist who ordered imaging, offered an injection and then said surgery was an option…not something the person was interested in. All the while, the person is thinking now what can I do? This person was left lost and feeling hopeless

I struggled with horrible plantar fasciitis for about 6 months. After it did not go away, I went to a podiatrist who got me a pair of orthotics. I paid $300 for them and they only made my foot hurt worse. Getting out of bed in the morning was excruciating. A friend recommended I go see Andrew Zang. I waited another 2 months because I was unsure if this guy could really help me. My first visit he spoke to me like he knew everything that was bothering me and had a plan to help me get back to hiking again. Better yet, I had his full-undivided attention as he only treats 1 person at a time. Interestingly about a third of the treatment did not even involve my foot. Amazingly my foot pain started to decrease. Together we developed a walking plan to condition my foot again to be able to hike. In short order, I was back on the trails again very pleased that my foot no longer hurts. – Gary M.

I was unable to run due to this pain in my big toe. The doctor told me I could have surgery and it might help, but I was training for the NYC marathon and did not want surgery. Dr. Andrew worked to increase the mobility of the toe and showed me how to stretch it out on my own. I am pleased that I was able to accomplish my goal of running and completing the marathon even though it did start to hurt after mile 20. The good news is that now the toe is more mobile and feels fine so long as I don’t run more than 15 miles, which is something I can live with. – Luiz R
