Ankle Surgery

Ankle surgery is often recommended or required to relieve pain, correct a deformity or restore function in your foot or ankle. To ensure a rapid and successful recovery following foot surgery, it is important to follow your foot and ankle surgeon's advice. You may leave the surgery with a cast, crutches or a surgical shoe. The length of time you will use these aids varies from case to case. Foot and ankle emergencies happen every day. Broken bones, dislocations, sprains, contusions, infections, and other serious injuries can occur at any time. For more information about ankle surgery, please consult your doctor. If you think the ankle or foot problem is serious, call right away.
