Having ankle issues? We can help

The ankle is the joint between the foot and the leg, and it is responsible for supporting the body's weight while allowing for movement and mobility. The ankle joint is made up of three bones: the tibia, the fibula, and the talus. The tibia and fibula are the bones of the lower leg, and the talus is the bone of the foot.

The ankle joint is held together by a number of ligaments, which provide stability and help to keep the joint in place. The ankle is also surrounded by muscles, tendons, and other soft tissues, which work together to allow for movement and support.

The ankle allows for a range of motion, including up and down movement (dorsiflexion and plantarflexion), and also allows for inversion and eversion which means turning the foot inwards and outwards respectively.

The ankle is a complex joint that is subject to a lot of stress and strain, making it prone to injury. Common ankle injuries include sprains, strains, and fractures, which can result from a variety of causes such as falls, accidents, and sports injuries.
