Radiofrequency Ablation in Wappingers Falls, NY
Say Good-Bye to Foot Pain with Expert Podiatry Care
With all the modern-day advancements in the world of podiatry, there’s no shortage of ways for a podiatrist to treat your foot and ankle pain. Naturally, while treatment options are recommended on a case-by-case basis, depending on your condition and health, many of our patients at Hollowbrook Foot Specialists, P.C. have found relief with Radiofrequency Ablation in Wappingers, Falls, NY.
Defining Radiofrequency Ablation
As its name implies, Radiofrequency Ablation uses radiofrequency energy to create heat in the affected area in order to disrupt the transmission of pain. The radiofrequency waves essentially disable the pain-causing nerve and eliminate the pain signals that are being sent to the brain. This method has proven effective in treating heel pain associated with plantar fasciitis by eliminating the sensation of pain in the heel.
Radiofrequency ablation is a nonsurgical, minimally-invasive procedure that’s always performed on an outpatient basis. Typical treatment time takes about 10 minutes and the recovery period is short. All patients are able to walk immediately after treatment.
Side Effects & Results
Some patients experience slight pain from the procedure, but it’s typically short-lived. Most patients report relief from pain as soon as 10 days after treatment, with a few experiencing immediate relief, and others taking up to three weeks for the pain to be resolved.
