Your Foot & Ankle Treatment Path

Three steps to recovery

01

Expert evaluation

Your ankle or foot is evaluated by an orthopedic provider with an exam and imaging if needed — on-site X-ray available through Wiki Wiki Orthopedics.

02

Personalized plan

Most ankle sprains recover well with rest, ice, bracing, and physical therapy. More severe injuries or chronic problems may need additional treatment.

03

Return to activity

Physical therapy restores strength, balance, and proprioception so you can return to sports, hiking, and daily activities safely.

Questions, Answered

Frequently asked questions

Is my ankle sprain just a sprain, or is it broken?+

Sprains and fractures can feel similar and look similar, but they need different treatment — a fracture is a break in the bone itself. The only way to know for sure is imaging (X-ray or advanced imaging). We can often do X-rays on-site through Wiki Wiki Orthopedics for same-day answers.

What should I do right after I roll my ankle?+

Rest, ice, compression, and elevation (RICE) in the first 48–72 hours help reduce swelling. Avoid putting weight on it if it's painful. Come in for an evaluation same-day at Wiki Wiki Orthopedics or schedule an appointment — the sooner we evaluate, the sooner you can start the right recovery plan.

Do ankle sprains need surgery?+

Most ankle sprains heal well without surgery using conservative treatment: rest, ice, bracing, and physical therapy. Surgery is reserved for very severe ligament tears or chronic instability that doesn't improve with conservative care.

What is plantar fasciitis, and how is it treated?+

Plantar fasciitis is inflammation of the band of tissue under the sole of your foot, causing heel pain — especially worse in the morning or after activity. Treatment starts with rest, stretching, night splints, and anti-inflammatory medication. Physical therapy, custom orthotics, and injections can help stubborn cases.

I keep re-spraining my ankle — why?+

Repeated ankle sprains suggest ankle instability. After the initial sprain, the ligaments may not have healed fully, or your balance and proprioception (awareness of ankle position) needs retraining. Physical therapy is essential — it reduces the risk of future sprains significantly.

Do you use custom orthotics for foot pain?+

We can recommend or provide custom orthotics for plantar fasciitis, flat feet, and other conditions when appropriate. Our physical therapy team works closely with you to find the right support.
