Ankle Avulsion Fracture Treatments
The main treatment options for an avulsion fracture in the ankle are icing and rest. You need to keep bodyweight off the ankle until this part has healed. The doctor might also put a boot or cast on your ankle to stabilize it. To move around, crutches are necessary. When the bone is pulled too far, a surgical procedure can help restore the alignment. Once the injury has healed, you need to work with a physical therapist to regain motion and strengthen the bone. [5]
