Ankle Surgery
The ankle is an important joint for everyday and sporting activities. It is surrounded by muscles and ligaments and is involved in weight bearing activities such as walking, running, jumping and twisting. This means ankle injuries are very common, especially within sport, and surgery is sometimes the best treatment.
At Physio.co.uk our specialised physiotherapists can rehabilitate patients following ankle surgery. The common ankle surgeries that Physio.co.uk treat are:
