How to treat an old ankle injury effectively

Old ankle injuries are old ankle injuries that commonly recur from old ligament injuries, fractures, and ankle impingement syndrome. Treatment includes surgery, medication, physical therapy and so on. 1. Obsolete ligament injury: If the obsolete ligament injury of ankle is accompanied by joint instability, surgery should be carried out. If the ligament is too loose, ligament tightening suture surgery and screw fixation are feasible; if the ankle ligament is seriously torn or even ruptured, ligament reconstruction with autologous material should be carried out. You can take anti-inflammatory and pain relieving drugs such as indomethacin. 2. Repeated fracture of ankle: If repeated fracture of ankle is caused by ligament laxity, ligament tightening suture should be performed to avoid repeated fracture of ankle. 3. Ankle impingement syndrome: If ankle impingement syndrome occurs anteriorly, anteriorly, anteriorly, medially or posteriorly, arthroscopic osteotomy should be performed if it is recurrent. If the above conditions occur, it is recommended to go to the hospital in time for early and regular treatment. All the above medications should be used under the guidance of a pharmacist or doctor, avoid self-medication.
