Ankle fractures, commonly known as broken ankles, refer to fractures in the bones that comprise the ankle joint. These include the tibia (shinbone), fibula (smaller bone of the lower leg), and talus (a small bone that sits between the heel bone and the tibia and fibula).

Ankle fractures can range from a simple break in one bone, which may not prevent you from walking to several fractures, which could compel you to undergo surgery to maintain proper alignment.


The symptoms of an ankle fracture can be similar to those of other ankle injuries, like sprains, which can sometimes make it difficult to distinguish between the two without medical intervention. Symptoms often include:
Pain, which could extend from the foot to the knee
Swelling
Bruising
Tenderness to touch
Inability to bear weight on the affected foot
Visible deformity if the ankle is dislocated

Diagnosis
If you suspect an ankle fracture, seeking immediate medical attention is essential. A healthcare provider will perform a physical examination and order imaging tests, such as X-rays, to determine the extent of the injury. In some cases, a CT scan or MRI may be required to obtain a more detailed view of the fracture and surrounding soft tissue structures.

Treatment
Treatment for an ankle fracture will depend on the nature and severity of the fracture. Generally, the treatment options can be divided into non-surgical and surgical methods.
