Ankle and Foot Fractures

There are many bones that can be fractured in the ankle and foot. In severe cases surgery may be required to align and stabilize the bone with pins or plates.  Fractures are typically immobilized with casting or bracing. After being immobile for a period of time, the ankle and foot joints can become stiff while the muscles around the injury site can become weak. This loss of motion and weakness can lead to pain and dysfunction at the ankle or foot
