First, physical examination

Taking a medical history gives us a first impression and revelation, and also guides us to a concept of the nature of the disease.

Second, laboratory inspection

Laboratory examinations must be summarized and analyzed based on objective data learned from medical history and physical examination, from which several diagnostic possibilities may be proposed, and further consideration should be given to those examinations to confirm the diagnosis.

Diagnosis

Differential diagnosis

Can be distinguished from ankle pain.

Ankle joint: It consists of the articular surface of the lower end of the humerus and the talus block, so it is also known as the talar 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 nest 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.
