Injuries

Compassionate Care for Your Injury

Unfortunately, there's no way to make you completely immune to injuries. Injuries are going to happen no matter what you do, but there are steps you can take to reduce how often they occur. Proper stretching, warming up before physical activities, and proper footwear go a long way towards avoiding strains, sprains, and other injuries.

If you have done everything right and have still suffered an injury, turn to the experts at Northpoint Podiatry. Call 732-722-7900 to schedule your appointment with Dr. Samantha Boyd to get the care you need.

Strain vs. Sprain

A sprain is the stretching or tearing of a ligament, the fibrous band of tissue that connects bone to bone. In contrast, a strain is an injury to a muscle or tendon, which connects your muscles to the bone. 

Sprains are caused by a direct or indirect trauma that displaces the joint, causing it to overstretch or, in some severe cases, tears the ligaments around it. Strains are most often caused by prolonged, repetitive movements of your muscles and tendons. Strains tend to be a chronic condition caused by not taking proper breaks during intensive training.

Whether you're suffering from a strain or sprain, you can get the treatment you need to get back on your feet with Northpoint Podiatry. Come in and see Dr. Samantha Boyd  today and get the proper treatment to recover quickly.
