When someone breaks or fractures their feet, it can significantly limit their motion and mobility. Therefore, many patients often wonder how they can perform daily exercise routines while suffering from a broken foot. It is important to always listen to the advice of your trusted medical professional, such as a podiatrist, who can tell you what activities are still permissible. For example, your podiatrist might tell you that if your condition is not too severe, swimming might be a permissible activity to engage in. Also, your podiatrist might inform you that core-strengthening exercises that do not put pressure on your feet can still be performed. If you have a broken foot and want to learn more about your exercise options, it is suggested that you schedule an appointment with a podiatrist today.

Exercising your feet regularly with the proper foot wear is a great way to prevent injuries and build strength. If you have any concerns about your feet, contact one of our podiatrists from Ankle & Foot of Edmonds. Our doctors can provide the care you need to keep you pain-free and on your feet.

Exercise for Your Feet

Exercise for your feet can help you gain strength, mobility and flexibility in your feet. They say that strengthening your feet can be just as rewarding as strengthening another part of the body. Your feet are very important, and we often forget about them in our daily tasks. But it is because of our feet that are we able to get going and do what we need to. For those of us fortunate enough to not have any foot problems, it is an important gesture to take care of them to ensure good health in the long run.

Some foot health exercises can include ankle pumps, tip-toeing, toe rises, lifting off the floor doing reps and sets, and flexing the toes. It is best to speak with Our doctors to determine an appropriate regimen for your needs. Everyone’s needs and bodies are different, and the activities required to maintain strength in the feet vary from individual to individual. 

Once you get into a routine of doing regular exercise, you may notice a difference in your feet and how strong they may become.
