All ankle x-ray Q&A

I sprained my ankle a year ago, but my ankle is suddenly swollen and bruised again. Why?

Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. I read your concern. In my opinion, you might have some imbalances due to improper healing of the ankle leading to the loading of other structures around the ankle.

I got injured while playing football. Is there any ligament damage?

Hi, Welcome to icliniq.com. I think it might be a grade 3 strain and there is no such tear of ligament. But, it is always good to get confirmation about it. Have an x-ray as soon as possible.
