FAQ's Related to Orthopedic Surgeon

Patients with advanced ankle arthritis, chronic pain, and reduced mobility who have not responded to conservative treatments may be candidates for ankle replacement surgery.

Ankle replacement preserves joint motion and may provide more natural movement, whereas ankle fusion eliminates motion but provides excellent pain relief.

Recovery varies depending on the procedure performed, but most patients require several weeks to months of rehabilitation before returning to normal activities.

Common ankle conditions include arthritis, ligament tears, instability, fractures, tendon injuries, cartilage damage, and sports-related injuries.
