Specializes in Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Surgery

Multiple Options: Depending on the severity of the arthritis, you can: 1) use antiinflammatories (sparingly if you have heart problems, high BP or kidney issues; can't use with stomach ulcer history) 2) try an off the shelf or custom ankle brace 3) modify your work/activities 4) consider low impact activities (yoga) if these things are not helping, then consultation with an orthopedic surgeon may be needed.

Arthritis : Warm moist compress helps along with soaking in epsom salts if no open wounds. Excerise or physical therapy will help too.
