About US:
A sprain refers to stretches or tears in theligaments – ankle sprains most commonly occur when the ligaments on the outsideof the ankle are injured. A fracture refers to a broken bone, which may occuras a result of trauma or... as a result of repetitive motions, in which case it iscalled a “stress fracture.” Ankle sprains and stress fractures are commonespecially among athletes, and can often be treated conservatively if diagnoseearly. Kesler offers both surgical and non-surgical care options to patients inWayne as well as Pompton Lakes, Franklin Lakes, Oakland, NJ, Wyckoff, FairLawn, Midland Park, North Haledon, West Caldwell, and Paterson.
It can be difficult to tell the differencebetween a sprained ankle and an ankle fracture based on symptoms alone. In bothcases you may have difficulty bearing weight, it will be tender to touch, andmay be swollen, bruised, or red. If multiple bones in the foot or ankle arebroken, you will likely lose stability in the ankle and not be able to walk.However, it is possible to only break one bone in the foot or ankle withoutrealizing how bad the injury is – but if it does not receive proper treatment,further ligament damage may occur and full recovery may never be achieved.
In both sprainsand fractures, there will likely be swelling. If you feel numbness or tingling,it is more likely to be a break than a sprain. There may also be painconcentrated over the ankle or foot bones, and the ankle or foot will mostlikely be misshapen. You may have also heard a crack as the injury occurred. Ifyou feel pain in the soft parts of the foot and ankle rather than tingling, itis likely to be a sprain. The injury may have occurred silently, or you mayhave heard a “pop” if the injury was more severe.
