Sports Injury and Prevention
Podiatrists are trained to treat all conditions of the foot and lower limb, including any sports related injuries. Sometimes, in order to prevent an injury, or to protect an area while it is still in the rehabilitation stage, it is important to immobilise the affected structure during a sporting event. Your podiatrist is able to provide strapping before an event, or alternatively can recommend certain braces or strapping techniques that you can employ yourself in order to keep you active and painfree!
