Monterey, CA New Non-Surgical Treatment Methods Being Developed For Foot Pain

Foot surgery can be very painful and recovering from it can be difficult.  Therefore, podiatrists have been coming up with new ways to treat foot pain that are non-surgical.  Bunions, plantar fasciitis, hammertoes and metatarsalgia, depending on the severity, can be treated without surgery.  Treatment techniques include ultrasound-guided injections that deliver anti-inflammatory drugs to the site of the pain and shockwave therapy that promotes soft tissue healing.  Talk to your doctor about the various treatment methods if you are experiencing foot pain.
