EXERCISES CAN HELP IN MANAGING ANKL BONE SPUR.

Exercises can be helpful in managing ankle bone spurs by improving strength and flexibility in the affected area. Stretching and strengthening exercises can help alleviate pain and improve mobility. Additionally, exercises to improve balance and stability can also be beneficial in managing ankle bone spurs. However, it’s important to consult a doctor or physical therapist to develop a personalized exercise plan, as the specific exercises and treatment plan may vary depending on the individual case and the cause of the bone spur.

  • Pull the leg of your affected foot in towards you, allowing your knee to drop out to the side.
  • Place some cream in the arch of your foot, lightly rubbing it in in circles.
  • Using the tips of your fingers or your thumb, with some gentle pressure, slowly run your fingers from the ball of your foot to your heel in a straight line.
  • This can be performed in either direction.
  • Ensure you do this movement on the middle and outer side of your foot arch too.
