Many people have foot and ankle pain and neglect to seek medical attention for it. Often times they comment on how difficult it is to find proper shoe wear, braces, or inserts for their shoes. The foot and ankle are very dynamic structures that have to work extremely hard to hold you up, balance, and propel you. There are simple suggestions that can help make your foot and ankle feel better. Understanding your foot and ankle problem and seeking the proper health care provider to manage your case is very important.
County Physical Therapy will be offering a presentation on the topic of foot and ankle care on Thursday, October 22nd at 11 a.m. at their Presque Isle location in the North Street Healthcare Plaza. The public is invited to this free event to learn more about foot and ankle care and options that exist here in Aroostook County.
