Ankle injury
Introduction
Introduction Ankle injury refers to the sprained ligaments and tissues of the left and right sides of the lower leg between the feet being severely twisted or partially torn. Observe the specific traumatic wounds, congestion, and fractures. Pain in the ankle area, joint activity is unfavorable or not, followed by swelling, red or cyanosis at the wound. Ankle flexion contracture deformity is common in clinic and seriously affects the walking function of patients. The etiology is complicated, and the surgical plan should be designed according to the pathological characteristics of the deformity.

Diagnosis
Differential diagnosis
Differential diagnosis of foot and ankle injury:
1. Swelling of the ankle joint: swelling of the ankle joint is inconvenient and painful during activities.
2, ankle joint flexion contracture deformity: ankle joint flexion contracture deformity is common in clinical, seriously affecting the patient's walking function. Its etiology is complex, the surgical plan should be designed according to the pathological characteristics of the deformity. Non-traumatic ankle contracture mainly includes muscle tension Increased and formed contracture and secondary flexion deformity due to muscle loss of kinetic relaxation, spastic flexion deformity caused by increased muscle tone, if simple achilles tendon extension, it is easy to relapse after surgery, need to simultaneously high tension Tendon metastasis to balance muscle strength. Traumatic ankle flexion deformity is also divided into two types, ischemic contracture and secondary flexion contracture.
3, ankle pain: ankle joint: due to the humerus, the lower end of the humerus joint surface and talus block, it is also known as the talus calf joint. The lower joint surface of the humerus and the internal and external ankle joint surfaces are combined to form a "" shaped joint socket, which accommodates the talar block (joint head). Since the joint of the pulley is wide and narrow in front, when the foot is dorsiflexed, the wider front enters. In the socket, the joint is stable; but in the case of plantar flexion, the lower part of the trough enters the fossa when the downhill is down, the ankle joint is loose and can be used for lateral movement. At this time, the ankle joint is prone to sprain, and the most common inversion injury is seen. Because the external hemorrhoids are longer and lower than the internal hemorrhoids, it can prevent excessive valgus of the talus.
