The first step of the process is for us to diagnose your injury. Often, we use an X-ray, CT scan, or MRI to look at the area. We’ll be able to see the bone or tissue to assess it for damage. We can also tell the extent of your injury. Next, we treat the problem accordingly. For example, if you have a strain or a sprain, we’ll recommend self-care techniques in order to minimize the amount of damage. The goal of the treatment is to reduce inflammation and promote healing as soon as possible. We may bandage the area to reduce swelling. If you have a broken ankle, we cast the area to allow it to heal in place. We’ll also provide you with crutches, so you can walk. Another important aspect of our treatment for any injury is to supply you with advice on preventing an injury in the future. Walk in today if you suspect you have a strain, sprain, or break. You can call us at (954) 640-1200.
