I have pain and swelling in both feet for years and difficulty walking. Doctors say it's arthritis. I've tried various treatments but with no improvement. What should I do?
See a rheumatologist or orthopedic specialist for a comprehensive reevaluation, which may involve imaging, laboratory testing, or assessment for advanced therapies, if your foot arthritis is still causing pain and swelling despite medication. Options including harsher drugs, injections, physical therapy, orthotic assistance, or surgery may be suggested based on the results.
