A member asked:
I have a 3 mm talar dome osteochondral injury occuring 3 months ago.. would the small tibiotalar joint effusion be as a result?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: This type of injury is usually a result of trauma, so joint swelling is common. I suggest you see a Podiatrist as you might need surgery to treat this problem.
