What to do if you have adhesions in your ankle that limit your walking

Adhesions in the ankle that restrict walking are usually caused by fractures, infections and postoperative injuries, etc. Physiotherapy, rehabilitation and surgery can be chosen according to the severity of the problem. 1. Physiotherapy: mild to moderate adhesion can be treated by local hot compress, red light therapy, microwave therapy, ultrasound therapy and other physiotherapy methods, to promote local blood circulation, promote inflammation absorption, soften the scar to promote adhesion loosening. 2. Exercise therapy: Exercise therapy can be carried out under doctor’s guidance, such as hooking the feet, and ankle joint adduction, abduction and other exercises, which can help to stretch the adhesion tissue and increase the mobility of the joint. 3. Surgery: If the adhesion of the ankle joint is serious, surgery should be carried out if necessary. Arthroscopic surgery can be carried out to loosen the adherent tissues, or incision and loosening surgery can also be carried out. Patients with ankle adhesions should go to the hospital in time to assess the severity and under the guidance of the doctor for standardized treatment.
