Symptoms
Sports injuries to the foot and ankle can manifest as pain, swelling, instability, and difficulty bearing weight. Common injuries include sprains, fractures, and ligament tears.
Diagnosis
Accurate diagnosis involves a thorough examination, imaging studies, and sometimes specialised tests to assess the extent of the injury.
Non-operative Treatment
Initial management may include rest, ice, compression, and elevation (RICE), along with physical therapy and anti-inflammatory medications.
Operative Treatment
Surgical intervention may be necessary for severe injuries. Procedures may include arthroscopy, ligament reconstruction, or fracture fixation. Recovery time varies based on the specific procedure and the patient’s overall health.
