Ankle Fracture Treatment

Edhacare25 Oct, 2024Business

The treatment of an ankle fracture depends on the severity of the fracture. For minor fractures, rest, ice, compression, and elevation (RICE) may be needed, along with a splint or cast for stability. Severe fractures often require bone realignment, followed by casting or, in some cases, surgery with screws or plates for stabilization. After recovery, physical therapy may be necessary to restore strength, flexibility, and full function.
