Broken ankle – Faster fracture healing

April 16th, 2009 No comments

Steve fractured his ankle in 3 places after an accident while practicing a freestyle trick a few weeks ago. Steve had surgery and a titanium (non-magnetic) screw was inserted to hold the ankle stable. We treated his ankle for the first time today. Steve is unable to weight bear and has very limited range in the ankle. We have placed 3 magnets on the ankle to aid swelling reduction, bone healing and pain.
