Meet the doctorQuestions about ankle treatment
Should persistent pain after an ankle sprain be assessed?
Persistent symptoms or a feeling of the ankle giving way should be discussed with an orthopaedic specialist. Examination helps identify ligament, cartilage or other problems and appropriate treatment.
Can I put weight on the leg immediately after ankle surgery?
This depends on the procedure. Cartilage, ligament and bone surgery can require different restrictions. Your treating team provides instructions on crutches, braces and weight-bearing.
Are ankle arthroscopy and ankle replacement the same?
No. Arthroscopy allows assessment and treatment of selected problems inside the joint; replacement substitutes its surfaces with an implant. The indications are different.
