Ankle fracture
Fractures and dislocations of the ankle and foot are common injuries in orthopedics. The joint surface of the ankle is smaller than that of the hip and knee, but it bears a lot of weight and activity, so it is prone to injury. It accounts for 3.83% of systemic fractures. More common in teenagers.
