Ankle and wrist pain can come from repetitive strain, sprains, sports injury, or inflammation of tendons and ligaments. At NY PAPA Acupuncture & Herbal Medicine in Hicksville, NY, we specialize in treating soft tissue injuries and joint dysfunction naturally — without relying on pain medications or injections.
Ankle pain may involve sprains, instability, Achilles tendon irritation, plantar fascia involvement, or chronic swelling. Acupuncture improves circulation, accelerates ligament repair, and reduces residual stiffness.
Wrist pain can be related to carpal tunnel syndrome, overuse from typing or manual labor, tendonitis, TFCC irritation, or arthritis. Acupuncture reduces nerve compression, muscle tightness, and inflammation contributing to pain or numbness.
