Ankle Surgery

Ankle surgery is aimed at solving problems affecting the bone, joint & surrounding structures. 

Common reasons for undergoing ankle surgery include:

• Ankle fractures
• Bone Spurs
• Ankle Arthritis
• Ankle Instability
• Tendon Disorders
• Deformities

Damage to the cartilage and underlying bone in the ankle, usually due to trauma or poor blood supply, may need surgical intervention for removal or repair.

Indicators are persistent pain and swelling that do not improve with rest, medication, or physical therapy. Difficulty in daily activity  due to ankle pain or instability, loss of range of motion, joint deformity, and failure of non-surgical treatments to alleviate symptoms.
