Sports Injury Care in Yarmouth and Portland, ME
At Coastal Maine Foot and Ankle, we know how frustrating a sports injury can be, whether it’s a twisted ankle during a weekend hike, a tendon strain on the court, or lingering foot pain after a race. Dr. Barry White provides expert care for athletes and active individuals in Yarmouth, Portland, and the surrounding Maine communities. Our goal is simple: help you recover fully, prevent future injuries, and get you back to the activities you love.
Comprehensive Care for Sports-Related Foot and Ankle Injuries
Sudden trauma or insidious onset of pain from repetitive stress is possible. We have a wide range of conditions present in our clinic, such as ankle sprain, Achilles tendon injury, plantar fasciitis, stress fractures, tendonitis, turf toe, and overuse syndromes. All of them are examined thoroughly and, if required, advanced imaging is used to determine the precise cause of pain and instability.
Treatment That Matches Your Goals
Your plan of treatment will be specifically tailored to your specific injury, sport, and activity level. Dr. White often uses a combination of conservative treatments, bracing, custom orthotics, physical therapy, and activity modification, including directed treatments such as cortisone injections or regenerative treatments. In instances of more extreme injury or inability to become better with nonoperative management, surgical repair or reconstruction can be an option to correct strength and stability.
A Focus on Recovery and Prevention
Healing is just the first step. We focus on preparing you to return to activities that improve flexibility, restore balance, and build strength to reduce the risk of reinjury. For competitive patients, we also provide guidelines for safe return-to-competition timelines, sport-specific conditioning, and footwear recommendations to support long-term performance.
