Is there any way to treat severs disease?

I have severs disease and a good way to treat it is to not run or jump and if it is really painful you should get a cast. I have a cast and it really helps. Physical Therapy helps too. You could also try kinesio tape. It won't heal severs disease but it eases the pain. Also, you should DEFINITELY consult a doctor. Also, if you have talked to a podiatrist, you have made the wrong choice. You need to consult an orthepedic surgeon. Not because you need surgery but because these guys specialize in bones and joints. They might take a MRI to make sure it is actually not a fracture. You also need to make sure it is actually not a tailis bone stress fracture. If nothing you do is helping severs disease then there is a 90% chance there is a fracture. If it really is severs disease, take a break from dancing and sports, give it some rest. Iceing it helps. So does physical therapy. I know I already mentioned physical therapy but it really helps. The therapists really know how to work with injuries like that.
