Fractures

Footwear-Problems.jpgAccidents happen. A quick fall or silly trip and even the best of us can be out of commission with foot or ankle discomfort.  An ankle injury occurs when the ankle joint is twisted too far out of its normal position.  Most ankle injuries occur either during sports activities or while walking on an uneven surface that forces the foot and ankle into an unnatural position.

• Tripping or falling
• Landing awkwardly after a jump
• Walking or running on uneven surfaces
• A sudden impact such as a car crash
• Twisting or rotating the ankle
• Rolling the ankle
