Ankle injuries are common, especially when playing sports. To find out what’s causing the pain or discomfort, you might need an ankle ultrasound examination at Spashta Diagnostics.
During the scan, our specialists will take a close look at the key structures in your ankle and foot. Ultrasound is quick, cost-effective, and a great way to diagnose and evaluate various types of ankle and foot problems.
Some common issues we can detect with an ankle ultrasound include:
General pain or discomfort in the ankle
Dislocated ankle
Unstable ankle joint
Swelling within the joint (joint effusion)
Arthritis
Morton’s Neuroma (painful thickening of tissue around nerves)
Torn or ruptured tendons
Fluid-filled lumps called ganglion cysts
Injured ligaments
Plantar fasciitis (inflammation of tissue connecting your heel to your toes)
Ruptured tendons
Lumps in soft tissues (soft tissue masses)
Stress fractures (tiny cracks in bones caused by repetitive force)
Tendinitis (inflammation of a tendon)
Tenosynovitis (inflammation of the sheath surrounding a tendon)
Torn ligaments
If you’re experiencing any of these issues, consider scheduling an appointment for an ankle ultrasound at Spashta Diagnostics. Our team will help you get to the root of the problem, so you can start recovering.
